He comes back to you because you give him easy, good sex. And he likes that. But he's also made it clear that that's all you'll ever be to him. To date, you've been okay with that, so why would he expect otherwise?
If you want a real relationship, then it's up to YOU to pursue that, and it's up to YOU to say NO to anything else. And, yeah, this might mean you will be alone for a while. It's fine to have casual sex with someone if you want casual sex too - but if you want something more than that, then YOU have to set boundaries and expectations and you have to enforce them. You haven't done that - you've set few if any boundaries or expectations, and with messy, unorganized rules, you get messy, unorganized relationships.
He's getting what he wants, but you aren't getting what you want - and yet you continue to allow this to happen, which I can only imagine you're doing because you hope he'll eventually change his mind. HE WILL NOT. So, kill that hope right now. If a man tells you he's only looking for sex from you, BELIEVE HIM, and do NOT expect him to change his mind. Men don't work that way. If you are in denial about that, then you set yourself up to be used, and it's your own fault. He hasn't lied to you or misled you - you've just ignored his words in favor of what you wanted to believe, and now you're having to face the reality that he really was telling the truth the whole time and that he's not going to change his mind.
Either you're okay with being his casual sex partner whenever it's convenient for him, or you end things. Any other option is just a mess that's going to make it harder and more painful for you in the long run.
