Guy friend very protective of me. Unsure why?

A guy friend I met online is very protective of me. He lives close but doesn't want to meet due to his busy work schedule and other unknown reasons. I've asked him out before but he always said it wasn't a good idea. When I mention guys hurting my feelings or that I'm talking to someone he doesn't even ask me to explain he just immediately asks who. When I mention people hurting me he is always on my side and reassures me that everything is ok.
