It's the thinly disguised, age old "fear of commitment" thing. He'd rather be with you, not date anyone else, not fuck anyone else, concentrate on you, blah, Blah, BLAH !! But just don't make me consider you my "girlfriend", because titles scare me.
So here's the red flag part: by not uttering the words "you're my girlfriend", he has a back door in his mind. In case he should happen to meet someone else who sparks him and he wants to pursue, he can more easily say "well, it's not like we're boyfriend and girlfriend". He might do that ANYWAY, even if you were, but this way gives him an out, in his head.
"I'm not ready to DATE you, but I LIKE you", is a huge pile of fucking horseshit. I realize you've had a fabulous few dates, but when a man is into a woman, he makes time to be with her because he wants to. It doesn't matter if he's new to the area or getting settled, and you don't need to see him everyday. Even if you only see him on his days off, or a few nights after work and call it an early evening, it's all about how much he WANTS to be with you.
It sounds to me like he wants you to be a convenient option and he's setting you up for that mentally with some nice sounding, but bullshit, rationalizations. I'd treat him the same way - make him YOUR option, not your priority.

Whats interesting is he talks mostly about sex in this message. He doesn’t say a lot of good things he likes about you. It seems to talk about what he is enjoying and his own personal pleasures. So now we have to figure out the intentions, what are they? Does he hate having to look on tinder for the next person to have sex with, does he want someone available for sex whenever he wants it. Is he planning on you being available to do the deed in the morning? To test this theory out you invite him over in the morning, if you dont give him sex how does he treat you, what does he talk about, if he likes you he will stay, if he is just there for benefits, he will leave and move on for someone else.
What Guys Said
When, you wrote, that he is out of your league, you could have ended you essay there...
He only use you until something worth his time comes along and it is not you.
It is very easy to spot, when she thinks, that she is out of my league as then she does everything I want...
And in addition to that, he could be one of those Fboys...
About titles, he might be right as every women chasing it and it is very big disadvantage to get married for a man in todays more equal to women times...It could go either way. I tend to agree with the other guys who responded. If you want a real boyfriend, don't look on Tinder.
If a guy isn’t interested in you, it’s a waste of time
He doesn't seem to have a very deep connection with you outside of sex.
If you're questioning something good, it's likely too good to be true
