He's military and just came back from deployment so I called him to check on him. I was so excited and nervous I mostly did all the talking.In fact, I almost felt like I did all the talking. He talked but sometimes I cut him off chatting too much, I sounded like a freaking parrot.He could said he was so happy to hear the voice from a friend he hadn't heard from long time ago and he was happy to hear from me. He said talk to you soon.But, I don't know if it was out of politeness or what. I felt it was the only chance I had to said so much that didn't realize I acted like a fool and we're not little kids at all! What you think I should do?

The only thing I regret is we are long distance so, we don´t have the chance to meet up although we´d like it. He´s stationed across the country and my chances of go there are very limited due to work. I could and will IF we stand a chance that is waht I´m hoping so. I just hope this didn´t blew it. I was planning on sending him a text about the reason why I was so eager and excited to talk, but do you think. Should I or just leave like that?

I'm sure it didn't change his opinion of you. Delete the recorded message, he's probably not even thinking any thing of it!

The thing is this guy's divorced and has kids and me behaving like that just let me look like a fool, that's what I feel and I do know his ex girlfriend was a woman older than both of us. I'm 31 and he's 35. I just hope his image of me didn't change just b/c this stupid thing I did!

I think you should take some deep breaths and calm down. Men don't normally say it's good to hear from you etc if they don't mean it.
Although you are just friends and you hadn't spoken for a while he was probably suprised and unsure what to say.
Leave him to adjust to being back for a few days and then maybe give him another call, if you live close enough maybe ask him if he fancies meeting for lunch a drink etc??
Next time you call him take a deep breath and let him get a word in!
Good Luck!
