What does it mean when a guy explains why he didn't reply?

I've liked this guy for a bit of time now, so I told him that. He gave me an answer that I think means he likes me back. I texted him, and here's what happened.

Me: Omg!! Guess what?
Him, like two later: What!!!
Sorry I lost my phone :(
But what's up!

It doesn't mean anything, don't overthink it. He's just telling you why he was late replying, he is just being friendly. It doesn't mean that he does or doesn't like you.

Sounds like he replying. Go for it!

What does it mean when a guy explains why he didn't reply? I think it means he wants you to know why he didn't reply. If you are looking for some deep hidden meaning then I think it means he lost his phone for 2 days and he wants to know what's up.
