Guys are turned on and "love" their gf so they both can feel ok about having sex. But once the urgency subsides they don't have much in common. They aren't really friends. It is a different quality of feeling.

 Its pretty easy to love someone but not like them.
I'm sure at one point in his relationship he did like her, but maybe recently she has done something that has made him dislike her for a certain reason, that or he is simply bored with her.
For example, if someone did cheat on you, you may well dislike them for it, but there is a part of you that probably still loves them.
They may be going through problems that he doesn't want to announce it, so he just said that so he doesn't have to go into detail.

In my book, he means they are incompatible. It is open to interpretation.
He doesn't likes her. He tolerates her, until he can figure out a way to ditch her. It's feasible to love someone while not liking their ways.
In this case? He had to dress it up for you, the listener.
Giving it ambiguity and saving himself some wiggle-room.
You're a female, he knows this could get back to her. He can always fall-back on the word "love."
