I can see it. How often has Hal hung out or visited the Batcave? How often has the JLA been shown at the Fortress of Solitude? Heck... whenever He'd hang out with Ollie over Chilli, it was usually at Ollie's place. Part of it is the fact that places like the fortress and Batcave are more dynamic places to draw... but Hal doesn't really have a lot of people coming to call on HIM...
I've had times when I realize that as often as I hang out with my friends... it's always at THEIR place. It's been MONTHS since anyone came out of the way to visit ME... but I visit THEM all the time :P
I can see Hal coming to the same conclusion

Everyone seems to have a "difficult" relationship with Batman, but I'm not a fan of the notion that most of the other Leaguers don't like Hal. I don't know why Bendis would think that.
I think it's more a joke with Hal's unflappable confidence giving him the impression that he should be everyone's best friend. After all, he's already hooked Barry and Ollie as their go-to best buddy, why not aim for the top dogs, Superman and Batman? I'm enjoying it, but I don't have a problem with Hal's personality quirks. I find them endearing.
For the record, I think Hal has also tried every method imaginable to flirt with Wonder Woman, to absolutely no effect. She knows exactly what he's doing, but delights in pretending to be oblivious to his many, many failed attempts to woo her.
