Search Results: sending nude pictures

A guy I was flirting with and texting/ sexting with for around 2 months told me he loss interest in me because I sent him a few paragraphs about my life which took away the mystery and the challenge for him. He claims he took actual interest in me at the beginning, but feels that as he got to know me I got boring and that we should let go as it would benefit both of us

Other details
-we don't know each other in real life
-he follows 300+ girls but claims to only talk to a few
-he told me he respected me for not sending nudes, but he sent me dick pics and wanted me to challenge myself more when I sent him pictures of myself (I never sent nudes)
-I've asked other girls and they said he does the same thing (flirt and send dick pics)

BUT in the beginning:
When my my friend texted him and asked him, he claimed he actually liked me (and this other girl) and wouldn't mind bringing us home, then something about cute babies ( he didn't know that he himself was talking to my friend )

So I thought the guy I've been texting/sexting/flirting with and talking about life with for 2 months was just keeping me as "back up" or like trying to get nudes from me (even though he said he respected me not sending nudes.) We would just talk and have fun. Occasionally he saw pictures of me ad said I was Hot af and cute and stuff and we kinda sexted without pictures at times.
So I basically straight up told him I felt he was losing interest and what not. And he said this:
"sorry I just lost interest in you for a bit so I thought id take a bit of a break so I don't"
and I asked if he actually liked me to begin with or if things were just sexual, and if he still likes me, and he said this:
"I still have interest for you and yea lol there wasn't even that much sexual tension so yea I actually like you"
Does he actually like me?

I don't know this guy in real life, we only text (almost everyday) This guy has seen maybe some cleavage, or a picture of my upper thighs but not an actual nude. he knows I don't do that shit, but he still chooses to send me dick vids and talk about life with me and tells me he misses me, jokes with me, and we make each other jealous and stuff (basically we have normal convo and only sext 1/10 of the time we actually talk now). But he talks to other girls as well who actually send him nudes I'm guessing, but he still texts me almost everyday (some days he delays a reply or ignores it but usually provides an explanation) Is he keeping me as a back up, or does he actually like me as a person?

My boyfriend would like pictures from me, he's not too pushy but I still feel so bad. I'm under 18 and just don't feel comfortable with myself and just the fact of doing that, to send any. My only other boyfriend was very pushy about me sending nudes, he would beg for hours and it was killing me, finally he broke up with me. I'm not sure if I'm just being weird and dumb or if it's okay to feel this way.
