I mentioned to him that when I am next in town in a few weeks would he like to meet up for a drink briefly before I go out for my evening do. He replied that he heard from his sister that we were having a girls night out... He said he had the kids that weekend so was likely to be busy with whatever they had organised so he probably wont be able to...good idea though..Is this him letting me down gently that he would prefer not to or is he still open to possibly meeting up. He always seems to finish with the ... so never know if that is his normal sentence finish or he Is happy to talk to me more about it. Reply to this Question

Hi there,
I really can't say for sure - it could be either of the two options. I think it is best that you not contact him for now, and wait till he contacts you. Anyway you've already invited him once, so the ball is now in his court. Let him get in touch with you and then you can take it from there.
All the best!

If he wanted to see you he would have made other arrangements for that weekend or, if that would not be possible, he would have made suggestions as to how you otherwise might get together. It certainly sounds as though he isn't interested in visiting with you.
His sister must know how he feels about you. If she is likewise noncommittal about his interest in you, you have your answer. If she encourages you to pursue the matter, there is likely a chance and you can try to get together on another day.
