More dating adventures

 A guy messaged me on the app about being a female veteran and "thank you for your service," but he really wasn't appealing, so I replied that he's a smoker and that is a hard pass for me. Then he replies that he didn't mean it like that, he was just observing that women aren't usually veterans. I was crafting a reply, something about I assumed he was reaching out to me with the intention of dating, seeing as this is a dating app. But he deleted our interaction before I could reply (or screenshot the conversation for this blog).
