Men, when a man says he wants to be with you, but he's not where he want to be in life... does it really mean he doesn't wanna be with you?

The guy I've been talking to for 3 months just told me this. And I'm torn on if I should let him go or not. I know he was going through things (he lost his job recently) and I understand that is a priority.. but how do I know he's not just keeping me around for convenience til someone else he actually wants comes around..

Correction; we've been going on dates and hanging out. Not just "talking"
