i am not british so i was wondering if the person meant 'i like you' or 'i want to have sex with you' . i was thinking it was the second option...

I think it means they wish to introduce Mr Pinky to Mrs Hoohoo at some point in the preferably quite near future.

As Broccoli says
and to answer your other question therefore the reply would be

Mrs Hoohoo to not welcoming any visitors ATM. Mr Pinky will have to wait outside where I will happily chat.

just say you feel flattered but you are married so nothing can come of it. it is quite possible to fancy someone and fantasise about them without actually wanting to do something about it realistically. he could have a gf/wife too.

you could always say "you're great but we can't have sex"

He may get the message, he may not wink

Message
Emphasis: To bold a word, surround it with asterisks, so *hello* will display hello. For underline use _ , so _hello_ gives hello. For italics use ^, so ^hello^ gives hello. To strike out a word, surround it with two hyphens either side, so --dog-- gives dog

Links and smileys: To insert a smiley face, , type [smile] or :)
For a big grin, , type [grin] or :o
For a wink, , type [wink]
For a shocked face, , type [shock]
For an angry face, , type [angry]
For an embarrassed face, , type [blush]
For a sad face, , type [sad] or :(
For an envious face, , type [envy]
For a sceptical face, , type [hmm]

Links The simplest way to insert a link is to enter the link itself, surrounded by [[ and ]]. So if you type [[www.mumsnet.com]], the link will display as http://www.mumsnet.com. If you want your link to display text other than the web address itself, leave a space after the address then add the text before the ]]. So "Look at [[www.mumsnet.com this page]]", would display "Look at this page".
