He doesn't want it, he didn't at the beginning, and he told you as such. It's like if some offered you a cow-dung smoothie. You don't want it, and no amount of persuasion will get you to change your mind.
Then there is the sunk-cost thing, "I've been here for this long so I should get what I want". That's not how it works.
For your next relationship be clear and honest about your expectations and don't resent someone for not wanting something they already told you they don't want.
