Why did he contact me if he didn't want anything?

Someone I used to see called me and said he was single now. It had been a year since we saw each other and I had no interest in seeing him anymore. For once, I caught him lying a few times.

However, I agreed to meet. We went out on a few dates. After two weeks when I rethinking our relationship, he told me he sees as a friend only.

Why did he come back if all he wanted was friendship? At first he made me believe he wanted more than this.
