 If he really wanted to be with you, why would he want to break up in the first place? It sounds like there was more to the break up on his side than he's letting on. The text might have been an attempt to keep you attached, in case something or someone better doesn't come along.
Staying friends with an ex is rarely (if ever) a good idea. It would be best to move on, or at the very least cut off all contact for a while to give yourself time to get over the breakup.

Give him space. He wanted to split for some reason, even though he probably doesn't know exactly what it is. If it is in part because of how obsessive you are, be sure to give him space.
Instead, go focus on doing your own thing. Go try and run a marathon. Or take a class on medieval warfare. Or go volunteer at an animal shelter. Build something. Get yourself wrapped up in a dream you have always had but never jumped on. It will boost your self esteem and make you more independent.
