I told him I don't want kids but he came back anyways?

So I met this guy, me and him were going good until the topic of having kids came up, he wants kids and I don't and it was a major clash between us.. So he took my number and didn't reply for a couple of days I thought he wasn't interested and took my number so I wouldn't feel bad or something.. But he recently just texted me saying he wanted to talk.. What do you think he really wants?
I'm 30 and he is 41...
