We are together 34 years.

DH> Heading to Waitrose do we need anything ?

No1 Peru chocolate please. My guilty pleasure with my only coffee of the day when I wake up, (keeper that he is he brings me coffee in bed)

DH>. Bloody hell, their asparagus is £20 a kilo. (Context we had been to the farm shop and paid £9 a kilo the day before 😀)

That was at the beginning of May.

Before that it was the beginning of April and we were discussing the Heineken Cup.

There was a thread earlier where the OP was concerned that the number of texts were being dialled back and less intense..

So just pondering……😎

Last message was yesterday when he was collecting our DD just to ask if I wanted anything from sainsburys as he’d had a rough week and was getting himself cookies 😂

been together almost 20 years.

NotAMug · 24/06/2023 08:56

18 years, I asked DH if he was meeting me at the pub. He ignored me then turned up late. Standard.

madnessitellyou · 24/06/2023 08:59

On way home from work please get peppers and courgettes x3.

Spinach and skyr.

Together for 20 years. Wild times in the madness household last night!

Davestwattymissus · 24/06/2023 09:01

This morning, DH to me at 6.30am: Are you up?

I was not up. I did not reply.

And then felt awful because when I woke up and came downstairs he told me that my car had broken down on the dual carriageway and he'd had to leave it there and walk back with the dog. Not a great morning!

Married 12 years.

I'm pregnant at the moment, only the 2 of us know. We were at my sisters on Wednesday, and I needed to throw up. I have awful sickness, and when I'm sick, it's not quiet.

Me: I need to throw up
DH: Follow my lead. I love you
Me: Ok
DH: Wait, do you need me to drive you, shall I come with?
Me: No, I'll be fine (we live 3 minutes away by car)

DH proceeds to ask me in front of everyone, 'Did you lock the front door....'? We both act like we're not sure, cue my exit and subsequent head in the toilet at home.

We've been married for over a year.

I love this. He's got your back.

LeonoraFlorence · 24/06/2023 09:05

DH: Is she sleeping?
Me: Finally 🥴🤞🏻 Will be down in 5.xxx
DH: Ok, settling DD3 again. She’s nearly down. Wine in fridge.x

That was last night at 7.45 ish. Pretty typical in here at bed time with 5 DDs. Did eventually get to open the wine though!

Eskarina1 · 24/06/2023 09:08

25 years together. Our last text conversation was yesterday and it was me texting "potatoes. Naan bread." He went to the shop and he asked me (in person) to text him remind him what to buy. Most of our text history is like this.

squashyhat · 24/06/2023 09:09

From me to him: Ian (wasp nest man) has been - no need to hurry back. A week ago. Just celebrated our 30th wedding anniversary.

We are retired so are together more than most, or know in advance what each other's plans are. And were alive before texts were invented so have never relied on them for communication.

LeonoraFlorence · 24/06/2023 09:09

Ours was WhatsApp.

TheDogsMother · 24/06/2023 09:10

DH - We're going to have a lovely fun weekend together.
Me - Shall we start with a glass of wine at the park.
DH - Great idea.

Texts were yesterday. Together 16 years, married nearly three.

NoraLuka · 24/06/2023 09:10

DP: Is the cat ok?
Me: Yes [photo of the cat sleeping]

Just now
Dh: what's going on in there ?

Me: she's just lying there with her legs in the air chatting to herself

Talking about Granddaughter in her cot, we have her for the weekend 🤣

Thursday me: Fancy a quick drink after work

Dh: Sounds good

Usually shopping lists and the like

Purplepeaches123 · 24/06/2023 09:14

He asked me to send him a photo of his bank card which I’d “borrowed” 😂. We text if we need something or sometimes funny tik toks. Married nearly 30 years.

AngeloMysterioso · 24/06/2023 09:17

Together 10 years, married 6

I’m at Glastonbury atm and he isn’t so we’ve been texting quite a lot the last few days!

WhatWouldHopperDo · 24/06/2023 09:24

Together 32 years
Me. Done what I needed to do here, be home in half an hour
DH. Ok. Kettle will be on x

Just over a week ago when we were packing for holiday and I’d had to go to the office for a work meeting.

We've been together 24/7 since then but we usually text twice a week or so. Usually about who’s going to be home when or do we need anything from the shop.

DH does send me something he thinks I might find interesting to read most weeks. He’s like a news article PA!!

Stillgoings · 24/06/2023 09:31

Together 20 years. Text most days. Mostly tea / where are the teenagers. His mum loves emojis and we have all started using them all of the time.
Last one was yesterday
DH just finishing work do you want picking up. Kissing emoji
ME Yes please. Off to M&S meet me there..heart + wine glasses + kissing + aubergine emojis

Erictheavocado · 24/06/2023 09:32

We message every day, usually several times. Mostly riveting stuff like yesterday's message letting me know my Amazon packages had arrived.
Together over 45 years, married 40.

Gorringe · 24/06/2023 09:37

Yesterday DH telling me there were no big boxes of tomatoes in Sainsbury’s accompanied with a 🙁

Married 35 years.

I am expecting a text shortly asking if there’s anything I need in town - he’s very predictable, I like that !

snoozingbaby1476 · 24/06/2023 09:48

A text about how the dog had to have a ton of mackrel for breakfast as we forgot to defrost his food & then we discussed if he was sharing it with the cat

Together 26 years
Married 16 years.

SunLover1985 · 24/06/2023 09:50

This morning, when I was on the loo, to let him know there was armed rebellion in Russia.

GoodHotSoup · 24/06/2023 09:52

A grumble about trains. But it's generally a complete mix of practical stuff, sharing news, jokes, articles, and slush. 23 years.

hoophoophooray · 24/06/2023 09:55

Um, a quick exchange about how much tax we needed to pay HMRC by the end of the month, confirmation that I'd done the transfer, some snarking about the house two doors down that's for sale at a ridiculous price and how they've now reduced it, and a takeaway order. Over about the last 4 days or so

maddiemookins16mum · 24/06/2023 10:09

Mine to DH - ‘you’ll have to get <catsname> in the basket, she nearly had my good eye out last time’

DH to me ‘get the gloves ready, I’ll be home shortly - I have chips’.
