Contact why Husband/Boyfriend away?

[Scorpio8]

When he goes away for weekend how often do you hear from him?

Would you expect morning messages or even a communication? Would you just let leave them be?

If your married what's the expectations of contact?

We text every morning and evening and lots during the day but we do that all the time and it's normal for us. Our pattern of communication is a bit excessive 😆

DH is rubbish🙄 turned out he felt guilty about leaving me alone to look after the DC.

Now afterwards being used to it and then all being teens he checks on a few times per day and I no longer care 🤷🏽‍♀️

wouldnt expect anything, would probably get one text. I do the same, I think time out from relationships is v important and you don’t get that if you feel you have to report in.

I’m with @Luredbyapomegranate on this - a weekend is a very short period in a long-term relationship and it’s good to have occasional space from each other, I find. We may check in with each other very briefly but we might well not even do that.

Not very much at all. I'm a bit clingy so I like to fill up my time when I'm away from DH so I'm not moving around my phone.

Argh! MOPING around, not moving 😂

Probably 2 or 3 messages through the weekend and maybe a phone call.
Just general "I've arrived/leaving now" type messages and a photo or two of things the other might like. I'm more likely to send him photos of ds than us actually talk (unless something urgent happens) 🤣

If he or I travel for work them I'd WhatsApp him perhaps once a day. If its a week we'd call at some stage. We completely trust each other and are both in really busy jobs so I don't worry when he's away.

Just for a weekend, wouldn't expect any contact. Might send a Snapchat for something interesting or funny.

We video chat every morning and evening before bed. A couple of texts during the day 🌻

He's been on a couple of weekends away this year and all I ask is that he text me when he's back at the hotel safe on a night, no matter what time.

In practice we text back and forth a bit during the day, he sent pictures etc, but I didn't expect or ask him to do that.

DH would speak on phone in morning, probably speak or text later on and then speak before he went to bed.

We have been married 42 years and like to speak or at least text during the day but especially if one of us is away.

I would hate it if DH did not contact me at all (not that he ever would)

My DH travels a lot for work and occasionally for fun! Tend to get texts when travelling (updates, chats etc) then maybe a few depending how busy he is during the day, less at night when he's socialising with colleagues / friends, but always a good night one even if I'm already asleep.

Depends on your relationship though, it's a how long is a piece of string question!

DH has just left for his annual two weeks volunteering. We've already messaged and he's only just arrived at his destination. If he doesn't read or respond for several hours I don't worry and vice versa but we do message at least once a day just to chat about random stuff.

If DH is away he'll usually call me every evening. If he doesn't have time for any reason he'll send me a quick message, but I don't fret if he doesn't.

When flights land safely or if driving when he's arrived safely.

Then maybe a couple texts a day.

I’ve just been away for a week abroad on my own. There were probably 30-40 whatsapp messages between us and 1 phone call (because someone rang me about something to do with DD but I wasn’t in the right country to deal with it.)

We both travel independently of each other as well as travelling for work. This is normal for us. It’s not really a break otherwise!

If he’s away with his mates then a I’m home (if he can remember) and a good morning so I know he’s ok. If he chooses to text me in the day then I’ll reply if he doesn’t he doesn’t

He'll text a couple of times in the day and will FaceTime at night if he's able to

Thanks to all that's answered my questions.
