What does his text response mean?

I texted him and said

Good morning. I may sound like a wimp by texting this to you, but I wanted to ask when we were talking on the phone last night and you mentioned wanting more and then got talking about work life balance, and possibly staying at the gym and not having that work life balance. What did you mean by that? Would you still wanna be in a relationship even without the work life balance? Wasn’t sure if you have a different outlook on things now.
His response: The more was not necessarily a relationship thing.

How would you interpret his response?
