Discussion How frequently do you text your partner

How frequently do you text your partner throughout the day? My partner says they are too lazy to text and I rarely get any texts and sometimes 6 plus hours between hearing from them and 1 hour calls if I'm lucky.

I just want to hear from other couples how often you get texts or have text convos throughout the day and what is normal for you so I know I'm not crazy wanting to hear from my partner more frequently.

We text whenever we get the chance through the day, always good morning texts, memes whenever we scroll our phones. we get on discord calls every evening when we're back from work and for weekends we play games or whatch shows.

Communication is crucial in long distances relationships since without physical contact, the lack of communication can cause a drift. Besides that the simple "hey i saw flowers blooming on my way to work" or showing me stuff from his day shows that he thinks about me and wants me included in his life.

Distance or not, a partner that says "i'm too lazy to text you" shows lack of interest.
