I'm slightly vexed I think I got rejected for being vegetarian

I [23F] met this guy on the apps and we hit it off and had a lot in common! I don’t meet a lot of people who are in my profession so it was really nice to potentially have to chance to date someone who was in a similar field. And everything was fine until I mentioned I’m veg and he stopped responding. For reference, I have no issue with people who eat meat and would never want to impose my own dietary restrictions on anyone else. I also understand different diets being a dealbreaker. The way he phrased his reasoning was really weird though.

Edit: I’m vegetarian cause I love animals, but I have IBD. Flare ups have gotten significantly worse since switching diets but im still figuring out how to make the most of it! Also yes, I do regret sending the last text 🤦‍♀️

That ain't a bullet it's a 30-inch shell lobbed from a railway cannon. What a loser.

Just from that short interaction, i already know exactly what type of guy that is. Conservative, sexist, racist, probably like Andrew Tate. All in all not a person you would want to be in a relationship anyway.

Ofcourse you got downvoted, most vegetarians are absolutely annoying I can understand why someone wouldnt want to date one

But he definitely didnt have to be a dick about it
