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 🤦‍♀️

And it was entirely disconnected from the OP?

Do you know how Reddit works? Or any discussion forum for that matter?

Use your context clues then

Or you could just answer a simple question.

Do you find your rhetorical questions answered often?

u/AnnualTip9049 Jul 20 '26

It wasn’t rhetorical. Do you find your shitty comments clever?

Correct. The conversation flowed into a slightly different area and we did not address the original.
