I'm asking this because in no dictionary does it say 'hypocrite toward someone' or 'hypocritical toward someone' Is this common usage?
I've heard 'You're a hypocrite" or 'You are so hypocritical' but never 'toward someone' because what if he's not hypocritical with/toward me but only toward some people.

My problem with the sentence is this part: "With me, he claims to like but people say he doesn't."
You're missing who or what he claims to like.
Or do you mean "He tells me he likes me, but everyone else says he doesn't"?
