<human>: Condense the text into a few key points

I (28F) met up with a male friend of mine recently and I was telling him about a recent breakup I went through. Turns out he had also broken up with his gf at around the same time. His gf had cheated on him so he was still pretty cut up about it, understandably. 

As we were talking about trust and things like that, he said something along the lines of "well it's like if we ever started dating, I would be afraid of getting hurt again". I got his point, that he's afraid of trusting again and being hurt, but I felt uncomfortable that he used us dating as an example. It made me kind of wonder whether he saw me as a potential gf? I am in no way interested in him and I'm now seeing someone, but just wanted to know if guys make these kinds of comments to their female friends as a normal thing?
<bot>: male friend made a comment about me and him dating and it weirded me out a bit. Is this normal for guys to do?
