I understand that you might feel frustrated and disappointed about this situation, especially after taking the time to discuss and share your ideas. It’s clear that open dialogue is important to you.
At the same time, everyone is free to choose who they want to talk or collaborate with, and sometimes those choices don’t reflect a personal or technical judgment, but simply preferences, priorities, or timing.
Perhaps the best thing is to keep the door open: if, in the future, there’s mutual interest, a constructive conversation could still happen. In the meantime, the value of your work doesn’t depend on who decides to discuss it; keep developing it and sharing it with those who are curious, and the conversations will come.
