Male friend/colleague went completely cold on me

Trying to rack my brains thinking why, but it's upset me tbh.
We used to talk almost every day and I've sensed him going cold for a while. I tried to ask him about it in a nice, casual way but he said no of course I don't mind talking, drop me a msg whenever.
When I see him round the office he's nice but now, if I don't talk to him first he'd never speak to me or initiate anything whatsoever.
I still don't know why, we've never fallen out or anything. As I say I tried to bring it up in a very casual way but he just made an excuse, so I doubt I'd get the truth.
It hurts seeing him close with other people, it's like I am of no use anymore.
The only thing I can do is just be civil but ignore him otherwise, there's no explanation.
He used to start a lot of conversation and then just went funny.
Has this happened to anyone else?
Honestly it makes me want to keep my distance from people as it hurts when you become good friends then they do this.

He fancied his chances with you and he's either given that up as a bad job or has found someone else.

Or he thinks you fancied your chances with him and you've scared him off.

Sorry to say but majority of men who are friends with women are doing so in the hope they'll eventually get laid. Maybe he's given up.
