Did I just get glitched?

I was playing a bullet game just now and my opponent had a drawn position but his time was running out. I made a move and his clock ran to zero but the win did not count immediately. I waited, thinking that at any moment I would win when all of a sudden the live chess server said "reconnecting". When I came back, it said my opponent had won even though his time ran out. Is it possible that my opponent glitched me?

yes weird things happen on this site i had 23 seconds while my opponent had 9 then after a couple quick moves his clock ran to 0.00... then lo and behold i had 7 seconds left and he had already made his move.. i quickly recovered and won out,, but this has happened several times recently and i wonder now if somehow i was being 'glitched'  lol ,,,  never thought of that.. the thing is it never actually 'lost connection' or 'reconnected'.. it just was an instant change over

It happened again. Exact same situation. My opponent realized he was going to lose, allowed his time to go to zero, and somehow I lose on time. This seems like people are doing it on purpose.
