Also, he bought me a drink when i met him, so should i thank him for the drink ( i thanked him for it when he bought it as well lol ) . The cast went for a meal when they left the bar too, so should i say that i hope they enjoyed their meal too, or should i leave that out ?.

Doesn't have to be anything more than that.

Listen, no matter how unique your note, if he was interested in you personally he would have let you know by now. Just say something genuine, don't force yourself to be different. Repetition is flattering when it comes to stuff like this.
And then let it go. If he has manners (and the time to be on fb) he'll "thank you for your kind words" and probably will leave it at that. So move on. He's an actor, he's used to people crushing on him. That's why people like him often date others who are in the profession, because they understand what it's like.

As Tisha says you need to tell us what the meaning of the message is.
Can I just advise you that if you are messaging him with romantic intentions be prepared to be dissapointed.

Tell us the purpose of the note. Is it simply a 'thank you' note or are you hoping for more?

Hey, I have asked the odd celebrity for an autograph on the rare occasions I see one. The thing is, I know they have a life, and I have a life and the likelihood that said celebrity will suddenly say 'hey Tisha, come hang with me, and be my girlfriend! I've fallen for you and you are amazing!" is really pretty low. No matter how amazing I am.
Based on those other posts Celtic Tiger found and I think there have been others, I would say that you are feeding a fantasy and hoping that something will develop. It isn't really healthy, is it, in the long run.
I'd counsel you to absorb that he isn't likely to follow up with you and based on those links, hasn't in the past, so let it go. Sorry.
If you can't let it go, get some counseling, okay? Good luck.

If those other two questions are yours,am afraid to say you need a reality check!!
Your not a wee 12 year old girl,your a grown woman!!
I have met my fair share of "famous" people & have friends in bands & other friends in the "public eye".
They pretty much have to keep everyone they meet sweet,be nice to them,engage with them & even flirt with them.
Not because they find this person attractive or even like them but because it SELLS!!

Was this the same actor?
I think you just need to chalk this up to an exciting experience and get on with your life. You do not know this person, or his friends, so to start commenting sounds both stalkerish and a little out of place.
An actor is used to pretty girls throwing themselves at him, there have probably been many like you who have taken a shine to him, and there will be many more in the future.
THink about it - he meets how many people every day of the week? All who think they know him, but they barely register on his radar. His job is to smile, be friendly and pretend to remember everyone. he wont. You are one of many faces he has seen and will not remember.
