AITA for wanting my bf to hang out with me before I move

 My boyfriend (20) and I (19 F) have been dating for over a month. Before starting the relationship, I informed him Iā€™d be moving to a new state at the end of august. Itā€™s about a 16 hour drive from my hometown to my new place. At first the relationship was just supposed to be a summer fling but quickly turned more serious as we have the same sense of humor and love being together, or so I thought.  I asked him to move with me and he said no. But thatā€™s not a big deal at all. I understand he has family and friends in our state. I love that heā€™s close with his family as Iā€™m close with mine. He promised heā€™d visit and said he wanted to try long distance. I assumed we would break up at the end of summer.

  This is my final week in our state and I expected him to jump at the chance to spend as much time as possible with me as I wonā€™t be visiting home until Christmas. We were supposed to hang out today but last night he texted that he was socially drained after spending the weekend at his friends house. Then last night I found out he stayed up late playing video games with a friend. Iā€™m normally encouraging him to hang with his friends and go to gaming tournaments but Iā€™m leaving so soon and want to see him more than anyone. 

 Now heā€™s barely speaking to me and acting strange since telling him I needed to see him more. I know he has to go to work and all but heā€™s spending all his time with his friends. Heā€™s unhappy because he thinks Iā€™m taking him away from ā€œthe boysā€ which is not my intention. Should I end it or try to make long distance work like he claims he wants to?

 Am I the asshole for expecting him to put his other friends on hold for the week and hang out with me?

EDIT: heā€™s always been a super funny and overall great person to me in person. I canā€™t come home before December because I canā€™t take my parrots on an airplane easily and am a full time student.

UPDATE: Today we had plans and he said he did not want to see me right now. I think itā€™s over. Thanks for all the comments, I realize that I havenā€™t been totally perfect and will think about things.
