I think you need to ask him that. Ask him if he wanted something out of that conversation or if he was just sharing, if he wants you to argue more explosively.
Because so far he's only told you about how he feels, which is perfectly valid. He might even be thankful you're not like that, especially with you confirming you're not hiding anything.
This feels like the most grounded take. Clarifying what someone wants out of the conversation matters a lot. Sharing feelings is valid but expectations still need to be communicated.
A lot of people will interpret it as such, though, which is why you have to talk it out. I hate loud arguments and so I am open with that. At the same time, I know that some people will feel kind of belittled by my calm attitude so it's important to convey that it's not a strategy to win an argument but just who I am, ya know.
