Well you shouldn't let it put you off talking with him. If you're not sure how to deal with that sentence simply ignore it completely - He'll probably make his true feelings clearer at some point.

Hello, minna!
Long time no see. Honestly speaking I couldn't find the site for a long time...
Well, as for the thread... My dear Japanese who said 教務準備室であんな事やそんな事、ゆっくりたっぷりさしつさされつto me is just a good friend of mine now... But we had some laugh about the whole thing
It was something like that: I told him ふざけないでください and then he replied with ふざけてなんかいないさ... and burst to laughing... And I was like but all in all it turned out to be a joke...
Ja, minna!
