He says he doesn't want to hurt me...

Thing is, we liked each other about 1-2 months ago and he broke things off. Recently, he confessed he didn't mean any of the things he said when he broke things off, but just always gets to a point where he should ask a girl out but instead freaks and breaks things off. He also confessed he likes me and never stopped liking me. BUT he says he doesn't want to like me because he doesn't want to hurt me again. What do I do? I still like him and definitely want a relationship.
