A note for the future: when someone randomly says something like this and has no specific frame of reference, they're fishing for reassurance and are probably having esteem issues or are just a big baby and needs to constantly be reassured of their worth.
Beware because they may well become exhausting to be around.

When someone says this its mean he is in love with u or have an attraction towards you but he feels he is not good for you or he is not able to make u happy all the life so if you have some this kind of guy try to observe him properly and if he likes you then you had a good option for your happiness
It's either he sees himself lacking as a person compared to what/who you are as a person or he wants to reject you in a nicer and less hurtful way. Maybe you should ask him very subtly about it if you really want to know what's on his mind. That's the only way for you to find out what he really meant.
He may just feel like he doesn’t deserve you as a friend, or he may has a crush on you and feel like he has no chance with you more than a friend, or he may be depressed and feel so down and insecure

Could be a lot of things. Maybe he cheated, maybe he doesn't feel good about himself. I would say he is interested but feels he isn't good enough for some reason. He probably really does think he isn't good enough.
That means in my own opinion that he saying he has made mistakes in his or her life that someone should come in your life and treat you like a king or queen and better then what your past had put you through all the frustration and hurt throughout the relationship that you both had.
When a guy says "you deserve better", it means one of the following:
a) he's not interested and he's going to prop you up and blame his lack of interest in you by saying "I'm not good enough". The intent is to turn you off to him because he sounds weak, but he's really not interested and this is the game to get out.
b) He actually DOES recognize you're out of his league and he can't keep up with you
c) I'll never be able to control you, so I don't want youIt means that they feel like they can't live up to what they feel you deserve. Because they know they can be better as a person for you but they aren't. Girls often told me this stuff "ur too good for me" turns out i had to dump each one that ever said that because they'd always end up cheating or something.
Could be that he's insecure about himself and wants to hear your day he's good enough for you, or that he wants you to see him in a better light. Regardless he sounds needy
Looking for reassurance or past that point he obviously hates himself or something about himself ahow him what you see it takes time but will help him in the end
He needs you to reassure him that he is good enough. He just lacks some confidence.
He is lacking self confidence. Stick with him, and let him know how much you like him.
He had legitimate reasons to say that. Time to move on. Most men are direct. Also, that statement comes from a lot of guys dealing with personality disorders and or trauma. Leave him be. Maybe in the future, like 5 years or more... hopefully you've both moved on by then. Lol.
He was probably seeking reassurance, or has low self-esteem. The 3rd possibility is he doesn't want to be blamed if it doesn't work out. No matter which one, it also means he thinks highly of you!
He may not be confident and feels that there is someone better out there for you.
He means he doesn't think he's worthy of your time or energy
Usually it’s a compliment to you- saying you are a better person than they are...
He is practically saying he's weak and that you don't need someone who depends on you but works with you in hard times. I think...
It means you deserve better than him. You can move onto something better, or settle for less.
They may feel like they're not good enough for you.
He doesn't want a response it's a nice way of saying "I don't want to be in a relationship with you because that would involve effort on my end, I just want to have sex"
This is one of the very early excuses that humans made for politely breaking up with their partners.
I think it means they think that you could do a lot better than them and that they need some reassurance
He's trying to be polite when telling you that he's not interested any longer. I wouldn't push it.
