Hope,
I'm not being judgemental here just writing what I see.

I can see the validity of both opinions: pick up the phone or not.

However what I also see is that by NOT picking up the phone after sending a message that could be construed as you making an attempt to get a reaction out of your H that he might feel you are playing games with him and don't actually mean what you say in the text.

Just my two pennies
