Well I'm not sure what he's like or what your conversations were like but from what you've shown he seemed to only been looking for friends. And like I said I dont know what your previous conversations were like so I'm not sure if I'm right or not but it seems like he's not trying to be rude or anything just trying to be honest
Just going off the conversation you provided... he does state he respects you and his partner too much to cheat on them or waste your time with something that may not be to your liking for what ever reason. You are attractive, and you should not settle for anything that would still leave you feeling empty.
Maybe he wanted a serious relationship and when you showed him the photos he began to wonder how many other guys you did this with so to get out of dating you he told you he had someone.
What was the context for this? How did you know him? Did he suggest that the two of you would be on a date or was this meet-up supposed to be platonic/professional somehow?
Waa flirting with you, but then it went too far so he pulled back. He shouldn't have let it go that far because he knew he was taken, but you had no idea. Before it got to that point he should have told you he wasn't single. He found you attractive, but not worth ending a relationship. Move on.
