I called my ex boyfriend. Before I hung up he said, "I'm glad you called". What does this mean?

My ex and I have been apart for a few months now. He wanted to stay friends, but never initiated contact. I would keep in contact every now and then by texting, because I wasn't sure about calling him (I wanted to respect his space). Well, the other day, I decided I wasn't going to text, because I missed hearing his voice. He answered (I was surprised). It was a very nice conversation, as if no time had passed. I was being a bit giddy, because I was so happy to be talking to him again. I told him I missed him and wanted to cut out the texting. He agreed that it was "stupid". He was very sweet, and even told me to be safe as it was a holiday weekend. Well, before I hung up, he said, "I'm glad you called". That threw me a bit. I'm trying not to over analyze, but I'm curious as to why he said that? Does he miss me? Or was he just being nice? And should I hold out on contacting him again?
