Grindr guys disappearing? Help:(

I was really connected to this one guy on grindr, we talked every day and really started to develop something. recently he said he was going to try to reboot the app, and then the next day our convo is gone. it reminds me of what its like to be blocked but I dont think he couldve blocked me after all the talking we did. did he delete his account? is it possible to find him? He doesn't live in my area so I can't see him on my cascade. thoughts?
