Funny how we find ourselves in these situations
I've been in and out of a relationship that, well, let's just say "left something to be desired". He had "issues" and I made excuses for him, ya know, why it always had to be "his" rules and "his" convenience.
This was the guy who "thinks the sun shines out my ass" (thanks to Juno), but in so many ways it was so unfulfilling that didn't matter whether he thought that or not.
LW, you deserve a guy whose blinded by the brilliance of what shines out your ass. I'm being serious although it seems silly.
If he wants to see you, he should make an effort, from arranging a date to picking you up, to holding the chair for you and your favorite restaurant. Seems like you make all the arrangements and do all the traveling and preparation to see this man, and he can't be bothered to go the least bit out of his way. His way or the highway, he says.
That doesn't change, the whole my way/highway thing. I know from experience. Unless there are consequences (beyond whining and pouting) he will continue to expect you to jump through hoops at his convenience.
If he cares so little for you that he can't even at least make clear what his issues are here, this doesn't look like a keeper to me.
