Do you think my cousin was rude when I wished him a “Happy Veterans Day”?

I texted my cousin to see how he’s doing and he didn’t text me back until two hours. He just said, “Fine”. I wished him a happy Veterans Day and he rudely said, “Yeah yeah WHATEVER.”
I was shocked. I was hoping he would say “Thank you so much. It means a lot to me.” He used to serve in the navy for bout 5 years…..I think. Then I said, “That…..wasn’t very nice. Well aren’t you a veteran?”
Then he said, “Well I don’t have to be. Yes I am a veteran, but it would be nice to have a day off.”
I told him I was just being nice. He didn’t respond back. Damn some veterans are ungrateful….I can understand how he feels, but a “THANK YOU” would be nice.
I didn’t bother complaining to my older siblings because they would tell me to get over it.

Sounds like he might have been having a bad day. Either that or he's just not a nice person. Let me kno if you're looking for advice. It's free and worth what you pay for it.

@Sequoia51 I was going to say “Thank you for your service” until he was rude. He didn’t apologize for being rude.
