". He is a well educated guy, always nice to me, i know for sure he would never mistreat a girl of course. I made him understand i didn't really find the joke funny, things got awkward and he kind of apologized and felt a bit stupid...

What does it mean ? Could it mean he might be a bit attracted to me ?

Thanks in advance...
It means it is a stupid thing to say and he knew it.

[and has no relation to your question]

Run, don't walk.

I advise having nothing to do with men who think its ok to joke about sexually assaulting you.

Lmao I love socially awkward people like this guy. He wasn't indicating he'd ever try to rape you or anyone else, he was just saying that he finds you quite attractive and hopes that you reciprocate so you two can bang.

Absent other compelling evidence of something being crazy about the guy, I'd chalk this up to a guy who is hot for you making a really stupid joke and nothing more.

As a general rule, rape isn't funny. Enthusiastic bed-breaking consensual sex is not rape. It's just best not to go there.

Making a rape joke to a woman is like making a lynching joke to an African American friend.

Sorry, unless he's 17 years old, anyone with their head screwed on correctly isn't going to use a referent for sexual assault as any kind of come-on or indication of interest. As has been said, he gave you a big red flag. There is every reason not to hang out with him independently for any time into the future. Real men don't use this in their vocabulary to indicate any type of contact with a woman. Let him know why you are having nothing more to do with him and that's it. No excuses, no shame. Nothing like this is a slip or casual mistake. Nothing.
