Dear, don't get your hopes up. He may have been looking for you to reciprocate and say the same thing back, just to stroke his ego. Did he ask to speak on the phone or have lunch together? I think he is playing games with you.

The best thing you can do for yourself is act like you are done with him and start dating other guys. If he did decide he wanted to get together, have a serious talk with him BEFORE you actually get back into the boyfriend/girlfriend mode. It is before you give in that you have the most power. In the very least, get a promise from him that he will not be breaking up again for at least 6 months, that doesn't seem like much but it will show you how serious he is.

There is a reason you two have broken up in the past, has that issue gone away or been resolved? I believe you would be better off finding someone else, there are many men out there that would love to be with you, give them an opportunity :)
