Does that mean that he wanted to reconcile?

I dated a guy but we couldn't last long due to certain misunderstandings.. In all this time, I couldn't move on and forget him.. So I texted him after a few months and asked him to forget what happened in the past and start afresh.. Relying to that, he said, "I've surely forgotten what happened in the past, but I don't know if we should start anything afresh. My family are looking suitors for me".. What did he mean by saying that he doesn't know if we should start anything afresh.. Was he confused, or did he want to start afresh but couldn't as his family was searching suitors for him for his marriage?
