Is there a chance he may want a relationship if he said this…?

“I do like you. When/if we go that road things need to change before that.”

Sounds like that's pretty much what he's saying, yeah. But things need to change before that. What those things are, I don't know. But he feels like there needs to be a change.

Communicate ask him what exactly is it that needs to change what's on his mind, see if you can both make compromises and if it's mutual then great but if he wants you to change into the ideal image in his head then it's a big no no.
