This seems to be a first in "the way it goes" department for me.
I understand your point about wanting what you can't have and making him work for my attention. I kind of want him to KNOW "what he can't have", though.
I'm not sure that is the message he will get from silence either. I guess I no longer care to send messages anymore.
The real me would call him back but not right away (I am authentically busy this week) and my thought is it doesn't help to call and it doesn't hurt, so why not.
I'll be mulling that over...but not spending a lot of energy on it.
