What does he mean?

I smiled at this super hot guy on Lava. 2 days later he emails me saying he would like to get to know me better. we emailed through lava first then through personal emails.
He usually replies 2 days later. I know he has internet access everyday as he's working from home these days. (he is in film industry)
I m interested in meeting him and dont want to wait forever for his replies which are usually brief and tell me nothing about his personality. So I email him saying it would be nice to meet sometime for a drink, he replies 2 days later saying he was too busy with out of town friends and that this week he is expecting a couple to visit and ending with
"Would love to meet for a drink".

Does that mean he is not that interested and prefers to take it slowly?
Why did he not set a meeting say end of the week once his guests has left.
I dont think I should ever hint at meeting again and will go at his pace i.e. replying every few days to his emails.
Do you think this is too smart?? :~)

Honestly, I probably wouldn't waste my time. "Super hot guy" is probably getting lots of attention from other women and however much time you want to spend in getting to know him, you may have to take a number and get in line. It sounds like he's giving you just enough attention (i.e., every couple of days) to keep you interested while he explores other options.

Is this really what you want?

Meet for drinks and see how it goes from there. Other than that, I'd keep my options open and look elsewhere.

Good luck!

The fact that he kind of put you off but didn't really indicate another time to meet despite his saying you should get drinks sometime is not a great sign.

well today the hotty sent me 3 emails and said in a PS (I want to meet up with you for a drink, just not sure when would work for me....are you in HIS NEIGHBOURHOOD much?)

So I said I m very busy this week myself since I m moving to HIS NEIGHBOURHOOD but will be able to take a break sometime from packing
so he replied with ok Cool!
I was: wow I m so lucky. The guy is a movie director and is certainly playing the part.:~P
