AIO to my friend pointing out my acne?

F 20 My M 21 “friend” comments on my face almost every time we snapchat. For starters we have never met but we’ve had each other on socials for a few months now and we talk here and there. He will always be like “oo your acne is clearing up!” or “oo i see you’re breaking out.”
Literally last night we were chatting and I sent him a selfie as a reaction to what he said and he saved it in chat and said “I can almost see your boogers. Is that a pimple under your nose too?” LIKE WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE? (and no it was my nose ring not boogers LOL)
So I said “you know I don’t really like when you constant point out my acne/stuff on my face.” He said something but deleted it and then he said “My bad g.”

Tonight he randomly texts me and asks if he can tell me something I said yes. He says the following:

“I just feel like everytime we speak or get closer, you always bring up something that bother you. And I don’t really appreciate you always trying to change me, even though I have done it every single time for you. The comment I made on ur face wasn’t even an attempt to bring up the pimple, it was me saying like “ damn I know that shit hurts because I’ve had it happen to me” I think ur pretty. But ion know it’s like every single time we speak you alwyas have a problem with the way I am.

The “changing” he has done for me as he says, is me telling him to please not flirt with me or anything like that. He used to a bit when we first started texting but I’ve made it VERY clear I just want to be friends. He would get upset if I asked him to not flirt or remind him we were friends. Like genuinely not talk to me for a few days.
I don’t understand how me asking him to not make comments about my face is me trying to “change” him?? This was my response to him:

“um i wasn’t trying to “change” you? i am uncomfortable with comments about my face and i know you know you’ve mentioned my acne more than that one time. i’m sorry i wasn’t trying to be a bitch but it just upsets me and i was trying to tell you🥲”

He left me on read. I replied again after about 10 mins and said “I’m sorry but i don’t see how im trying to change you”

Was I too rude? I feel like I was valid but why is he so upset with me
