I understand were you are coming from with the kids and everything but in reality you need to move on and let go.The phone call was awkward for a reason. He probably knows you have a new man.Let's be honest, you said the other guy was far away but busy, you just wanted him because he is attainable. He is familiar. Many women like the men that they feel comfortable around. Men do this too.
The new guy sounds better because it's hard to change.
Yeah like that plate of delicious spaghetti and sauce is a "known" so one has to go back and see if there's any spaghetti sauce left on that plate so to get some italian bread to help clean it up.
That new guy does sound like he's better for the OP, but much more day in and day out being together would help determine that much better though not possible at this juncture.
The way I look at it, you didn't care enough to want to stay in a relationship with him. You can care about someone by letting them go and giving them the space to move on with their life without you.

Because this is an often recurring theme. Not just on this forum but is most social settings. Because people can't leave well enough alone. The last thing I want is to hear from an ex. I've had previous contact me, "friend me" on Facebook, or want to "see how I'm doing. Sorry, it doesn't work that that way.
Why did you call him, so soon? This may be a complete projection for me, but whenever I've ended something with a guy, it's always taken at least a couple of months before I felt completely over that man enough before I reached out to him again. After 8 months together, in one month after you've broken up, you're dating someone new and now you're reaching out to him? Are you sure it's just to "catch-up"?
