He means just what he has said. There is no chance of the two of you getting back together. He is open to being just friends. He wants to move on with his life and be in a serious relationship with someone new. I haven't read your previous post that may contain more information but with what you've posted here, I think you don't have to try to figure him out any further. As I said, he's clear that he only wants to be friends with you but is interested in a serious relationship with someone new.

Sorry, I actually don't understand what you are asking. You asked if you could still be friends, he said yes and emphasised "just friends". What's not to understand, that seems perfectly clear?

Perhaps he emphasised JUST friends to ensure you realise he doesn't want to go back to the way things were, so that if you harbour hopes it might bring the two of you back together, you know that's not on the cards.
