Taking a stand or being a hypocrite?

This guy I've been into for a while (and as far as I was concerned he was into me too!) recently said he feels as though he can't commit to this 'relationship' and thinks we should just be friends. I was bothered at first because I liked him more than a friend but I'm okay now I've accepted it. But recently he's been so miserable and sharp and rude with me. He ignored me and essentially told me to go away and didn't talk for like 2 days then when he did talk he was short and just rude. So I just left it then today he messaged me like hey what's up how are you and such and I said I didn't appreciate the way he was acting towards me over the past 2 days and that I didn't want to speak to him and I was firm and short with him. He started swearing at me and said he'd never talk to me again. Was a wrong for doing that? For turning around and I guess treating him the same way he treated me? I have mixed feelings on the matter. I just feel like I'm at my wits end. Advice?
