He's just hit the point at which he realized that he's been with you for a long time and only has one year left at college in which to screw around, get drunk and fuck people he'll never see again, and do all that great college stuff. He doesn't think you'll understand that, so he's trying to give you what he thinks is the easiest way to let you down with minimal emotional pain. He probably fully intends to get back together with you after graduation as long as he can make sure that none of his flings and two-week relationships consisting solely of time spent together in bed turns out to be more emotinoally satisfying than loving you. He sees your relationship as indestructible, and therefore has no qualms about putting it on indefinite hold while he goes around and has fun.

Is putting out because you're sure that your unreciprocated love will convince the other person to love you back really nobler than admitting that you just want physical needs satisfied? At best, you're lying to yourself and setting yourself up for a bigger disappointment.
