BEcause we work opposite schedules (he works Mon-Fri, 9a-5p), and my schedule is completely erratic (eg Tues and Weds, 2pm-11pm, Fri 10pm-7a, Sat 5pm-2am), it can be tricky.
But on any day that I am off and or work a regular day shift, we text chat at night. So, on all non working days, it's every day
Sorry, but somehow texting to remind him or her to stop at the store or the dry cleaners does not count as any kind of communication that keeps a couple together. It is purely utilitarian...not romantic, not inquisitive, not because you're lonesome. So yeah...it's kind of the opposite of "I'm missing you", sexting, anything like that.
You are very wrong on that. It's part of they basic level of communication that needs to be there for a couple to last.
Sexting won't keep a couple together if they can't actually communicate and coordinate their life together. It's not as glamorous...but it's a whole hell of a lot more imposing the long run.
Just scoffing at the idea that if it's not a key player in intimate communication, and is instead used as a utilitarian tool at most, that's somehow a relationship red flag.
My husband and I work and go to school about four miles apart and have lunch every day, nearly. The idea of spending the few hours in the morning that I don't see him and the few hours in the afternoon I don't see him sending "I MISS U SO MUCH!" messages or sexting/sending nude shots is...not really very "me."

Sexting and mush notes are not my style either....and my husband and I work in the same facility....now...but we lived 1000 miles apart at one point. As a communication tool it's as useful as any other...and better than a few.
Even now...if one of us sees something amusing on line or hear something funny...we share it via text...it's what works for us.....and while it may not have a place with everyone...it's helpful to many.
We text if there is something important, but we cannot make a call. Everything else can wait till the evening, when we have a old fashioned, face to face conversation.
I'm the girl in his neighborhood. So he is my neighbor, my friend, my boyfriend, and now is my husband. It awkward I know, lol
His apartment is 5 minutes within walking distance to my apartment. There isn't one day that gone by where I don't see his face. I see him so much that his image burn in my brain, and he is a "Street smart" guy too so it impossible to get his image out of my brain.
We married now, but even back then when we weren't married yet, we still see each others alot because our distance is just ridiculously close. I step outside and walk for few minutes and there he is, we in the same neighborhood.
He is not a text guy, he rarely text. He likes to get straight to the point, he likes to talk on the phone so he can hear my voice. When he at work he calls me everytime he on break. We married so as husband wife we see each others all the times, there no difference now married as to dating, I guess we just so used to each others present.
This marriage so far have been sooo peaceful and loving, sometimes I wish we would have a little argument here and there, but there just isn't any.
He dotes on me, he always let me have things my way so I can be happy, there just isn't any arguments between us. Sometimes my brain be like come on 'street smart' husband argue with me, LOL
