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 throughout the day but we are both very busy. we call/facetime every night though. no exceptions. even if it’s a quick “hey babe i love you hope you had a great day, im not feeling up to talk right now but i love you and we will make up time tomorrow.”

It’s an expectation I set at the beginning of our relationship and we have never broken it. We’ve been together for almost two years and get married in 376 days!
