Gee... I take it to mean that he doesn't want any possible relationship to spill into the work place and cause problems that impede his promotion or perhaps get him fired.
However, if he is not interested in you, he might use that as an excuse to let you down easy.

he does not want to hurt your feelings means he does not feel the same way about you as you feel about him
not wanting drama means he does not want this to go further and be any sort of issue.
he is your boss and in a lovely professional way he told you NOT GOING TO HAPPEN.
respect that he wants no part of anything other than a work relationship with you.

I have to agree with the sentiment, HE is your BOSS - don't go there.
And what he meant is if you two have a "fling" he wants no drama, nor does he want to date you.

Keep it professional and remember he is your boss. There are tasks that are expected of you at your work place...do not put this man in a position (or you for that matter) of people thinking, or it actually happenens that you start getting special treatment. Co-workers start treating you differently, and usually not favorable. Rumors starts floating around....all drama. Say you get involved and it doesn't work out...this man is not going to jeaporadize his job/career over all the drama that will come with it. At the end of the day, he needs to have a job and, probably you do too and that's why he doesn't want the drama. Get back to what your roles are and put your focus on what you are there for. Maintain a working relationship with this man and leave it alone.

I agree with CindyCares but could also mean that he doesn't want the drama (complications) of starting a romance with a co-worker. It could get awkward, especially since he's your boss.

The fact that you work together is probably the main culprit.
If you have an argument or disagreement and that carries over into your work environment, it can create a very uncomfortable situation.

" I don't want drama " generally is code for " I don't want any attachment or emotional involvement, I want to keep it simple, uncommitted. No jealousy, no expectations, casual fun only ".
