What does it mean when your boyfriend say We are still a couple after I said I’m not interested in him and I want to end the relationship?

It means he wants things done on his terms, not yours. He can’t accept being dumped, he has to be the dumper and my guess is he’s not done using you yet. In any case it doesn’t matter, you don’t need him to agree with the breakup, nor do you need his approval to walk away. If you’re done, be done, otherwise he’ll think you enjoy the control and won’t take you seriously.
