Is he no longer interested?

We went on a date and we live couple hours apart. It’s his birthday, so I offer to be his birthday treat and at first he said he’d like it. But then he actually end up sayin “I’m not going to make you drive all the way out here for me. Especially with work tomorrow. I do appreciate the effort and willingness. It is nice to see”

I feel rejected he actually wasn’t for it…
