What does っぽいっつったけど mean?


> 俺に必死かよ！  
>  淡泊っぽいっつったけど  
>  意外とおこちゃまみてーなとこもあんだなぁ  
>  お前よ

The character is a delinquent so he tends to slur some words together. The
dialog is ALL spoken by a single person. This is the character's response
after his lover doesn't answer him to the question "Were you jealous?" so he
says this.

My reading is akin:

> 俺に必死かよ！

You are really desperate about me!

> 意外とおこちゃまみてーなとこもあんだなぁ

You also have some childish like parts

> お前よ

You! (it sound weird in English but I'm being literal)

However 淡泊っぽいっつったけど is the confusing part. I understand it's akin to 「～って言って」
but I'm struggling to connect it with "淡泊っぽい".




For つった, see: [What does つった
mean?](https://japanese.stackexchange.com/q/77674/5010) and [What does っつの
mean?](https://japanese.stackexchange.com/q/1252/5010)

淡泊 in this context is "emotionless", "not enthusiastic", "uninterested",
"stoic", etc.
