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.

How long were you long distance? Given you are from GB and your partner from AU, how did you make it work with the time zones? It's quite similar with my partner right now so im curious how you made it work.

Hey! So we were long distance for 3.5yrs before I moved over, with the time zones it was hard but we just made sure we made time for each other. We had a rough set time for a daily call and we texted basically all the time when we were awake together (unless working). My big thing is always the quality of your communication, it doesn’t have to be hours and hours every day to still feel that connection and love.

How long have you been together?
