Why would an ex want to see me all of a sudden?

Help

He was the one who initiated the break up. To sum it up, when we broke up, he said there was nothing that I did wrong and he never gave me the reason why he all of a sudden "didn't feel the same anymore" All he told me was that his feelings weren't the same and he wasn't sure why, that he couldn't figure it out even after weeks of trying to. But at the same time, he told me that he did love me when we were breaking up and that he always will, that I was the best girlfriend he ever had, which was confusing.

I always sensed there was way more to it than the reason he said, but he really did not tell me much so I got no closure. I had to get over that. My ex also did tell me there was no one else involved, when I asked if it was b/c of another girl, not sure if he was telling the truth or not.

Anyways, this ex reached out to me after 2 years of no contact. Was surprised he even kept my number even though the breakup wasn't messy. He said he was thinking of me, hoping I was doing well, and wanted to meet up in person to catch up with me.

I just don't get why he's reaching out after so long and what his intentions may be. I also wonder why he went straight to wanting to see me in person. If he wanted to just say sorry or get closure, couldn't he do that over text or over the phone?

He wants to drive an hour and a half to see me in person because we do not live in the same city. I'm confused by this, so any insight or opinion would be helpful
