If you are, it's understandable. You just told them you don't always read social cues correctly, they answered in a way that was both positive, and easy to misread. So, uh, ask them? Tell them how it comes across and ask if that's what they meant.
You may want to put a #nsfw tag on posts like this so people who don't want to see it clcan have their clients blur it. I, on the other hand want to see it. FWIW, I've been trying to zap this a few times today and it's failing to generate an invoice. No idea if that's on my end or yours.
