Why he removed the status when I already saw it?

A Guy I’ve been seeing made a status about being interested in talking to other women. I texted him and told him if he felt that way then i would step back because the status made me feel like a back up plan and a few hours later i noticed the status was deleted/removed from his page, Why did he delete it if that’s how he really felt and I’ve saw it?
