My husband and I go some days without a single communication but most days range from 1-5 text/calls (I’m not big on email now that I have unlimited texting whoa-who!) However, most the time I feel like I am bugging him with all the updates, though he says he adores them. With my new Iphone we can do face time, which helps me justify calling him for no reason (it’s for the kid). I also don’t want him to look at the picture of us on the beach and think man….I have six more hours here, shucks! But I just asked him if he ever feels that way and he said no quite the opposite so maybe I’ll increase the updates!

Tara, I love that! My two college friends and I used to have a thread that went on forever, all day long. It ranged from “I’m pregnant” to “Did you see the Bachelor?”. Somehow it died out after a couple of years.

so i guess im in the minority her e- both DH and i work fulltime, often at computers (and of course we have smartphones). one of us starts a gmail conversation every morning with as pithy of a subject as we can invent and we continue throughout the day. busy days, only 5-8 emails, non-busy ones, as many as 25! we’ve been doing this since our days of dating….

My husband called me from work this morning after I told him about this post yesterday. It reminded me that we had gotten out of the habit of checking in with each other during the day, and I missed that. He called to ask me if my work internet was slow, which it wasn’t, but hey, it’s a start, right? And I guess I learned something about internet fiber optic cables in the bay, blah blah blah…

For years – YEARS – my husband and I spoke at lunch when he called to check in and at 4:45 when he called to say he was leaving work…or would be staying late. Any other communication had to do with a moment of panic or some similar meltdown during the day. Then one year ago we joined the rest of the 21st century and began to text. In fact, he had his first LOL while I was at the Type-A Conference in 2011. We still aren’t updating each other on our every move, but now I get the occasional “love you” that has nothing to do with lunch or leaving work. It’s a welcome change
