Pointless argument

I asked my ex (we are friends) why he had a seizure and he said he didn’t know, I asked him what happened around the time he had it, was he hungry etc and he said he wasn’t. I asked if it just came out of nowhere then. He asked why was I asking and I explained it’s because I want to know if there’s something wrong with him. and then there was a few minutes of silence and I thought he must be away from the phone and then I heard him breathe and his tone was angry and said you know what I hate phone calls and he had an issue with me prying into his life and it’s none of my business??
I don’t know what I’ve done wrong if he’d told me he didn’t want to answer I wouldn’t have asked any more. I said it was really triggering to be spoke to like that and I don’t like it and ended the call.

He's obviously very sensitive about it and I wouldn't ask again.

He might think you’re being insensitive about something which was probably traumatic for him. Could come across like you’re almost blaming him for having the seizure

Something about his tone was so nasty that it’s really triggered me

He literally just threatened to strangle me. I’ve blocked him. wtf.

It was clear that he didn’t want to discuss it with you but you didn’t take the hint but his reaction was excessive and you were right to block him. Move on and don’t contact him or respond to him again.
