((((((FlowchartAli))))) I don't think you spooked him with that, Ali! It might be a hair more than I'd have done, but all you did was let him know you are there for him. I think you are right not expecting a call!
He is seeking you out, or at least letting you know, when he is missing something in his life. Don't try to analyze it anymore than that! And do the "la la la la la, I can't hear you" thing in your head, when your friend starts talking!
It's frustrating, but at least you got to meet us!
