A guy I met online only said he doesn’t think he can have a romantic relationship with me but to continue be friends?

He first asked if we can meet and see where it goes and then weeks later he said this.. but we haven’t met in person it’s just messages and some pic. Recently we did a few video call.. Is it normal to decide this without meeting in person

During video call when I asked why he doesn’t think we can have a romantic relationship he says “ he doesn’t know why he said that “ and that “ it’s true people have to meet first “
but he also doesn’t message now unless I do first he replies right away.

I don’t know if I should still meet him.. I’m extremely sad he said that ! If we meet in person is there any chance things can change?
What do you guys think I should do?
I truly looked upon meeting this guy once I turned back home from this school - out of state course. 😟
