Could you provide me with some insight?

I was wondering if you could provide me with some insight on the following. He was very interested from the very beginning; however, I was a little bit hesitant at the beginning due to our different communication styles. We had a hard time understanding each other. He is a black and white kind of personality, very straightforward in what he thinks and also very traditional, which was not something that I am accustomed to or something that I am looking for, so I wasn't certain how truly compatible we would be if we ever got into a relationship. At the same time, during our getting to know each, he mentioned that I am picky with men and how I should open my horizons and be more open to different kinds of men and not just the men that I am interested in. I don't know why he said that as I do not think like that and I never mentioned that in our conversations. More ever, whenever we would talk about that, I would try to explain to him that that is not the way it is, but he would not listen and he continued to mention that. Now, he says that he doesn't want to pursue anything because we come from opposing cultures (our cultures are not that different, but yes they are different) and how I should be with a guy from my culture and how he wants to raise his kids (we both want marriage and family) in his own culture and customs and not that he imposes those on somebody who has her own customs. What do you think about all of this? If you would like more information, please let me know if that would help you provide a better answer. I didn't want to write for too long.

I think he's beginning to push you away by saying you should be with a guy from your culture. He's indirectly telling you to move on while he too moves on with his life.

I think he's beginning to give up on you since you're playing too hard to get. Now is the time to open up more, so he'll know you are ready to accept him.

I understand he is trying to push me away. I just wanted to get some clarity on what he might have been thinking or what his thoughts were. Now, I haven't written too many details, so you are not able to provide with me a clearer answer. So, if you want, you can ask me more questions if that would help provide me with a clearer answer.
Yes, I was a little bit cautious, but he made it seem like it was such a big deal. That's also one of the things that crossed my mind as well.
Thank you for your answers.
