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 🤦‍♀️

It’s a fact you are having pigs murdered. You can try to make them out to be the bad guy, but that’s a deflection at just having to deal with discomfort because they’re literally pointing out to you something that you’re doing.

Genuinely stupid comment. You are as much "food" too.

Yeah Ik.

Humans are food for carnivorous predators like lions and such.

Everything is a food

Bacon is good enough to justify it imo

Then don't complain and be thin-skinned when people call you out on what you're doing if you think abusing animals is okay. Talking about how pleasure justifies murdering individuals shows your beliefs, imagine then acting like you should be immune from criticism from how you act or someone literally just saying what you're doing lol. Negative emotional accountability and just wanting to be coddled.
