(Ex) boyfriend issues

Mylee • ♍️
Ok so my boyfriend recently told me that he wanted to be friends and not date, because he said I'm too insecure and he can't handle it and that if I fix myself he will get back together with me. Well I tried to be friends with him and stuff but it really hurt because I didn't want to see him with other girls and etc.. So I tried to be friends but we would text often and now he's saying we text too much. I'm really getting my hopes up that we will be together but I feel like we won't even tho he says we will. Should I just drop him for good or comply?
