We are casual, but my 'partner' doesn't have a cell phone so i never talk to him unless he calls me and comes over. never just to chat throughout the day

I think society is as a point, especially with texting, that most people talk throughout the day

Even after being married for almost a hundred years, we still talk several times a day.

My husband and I both work in retail, so when either of us is at work we are working the whole time. No cell phones or computers on company time. If there is something urgent we may make an occasional call to each other on the main line of either business, but we both understand if the other person is too busy to talk at that moment. Most of the time, there is no reason why something can't wait until a lunch break or the end of a shift.

If it's just being apart because of work...no. I don't really see the need for it, and he would probably get annoyed!

If one of us is gone for more than 24 hrs for whatever reason, then yes, we try to get in at least one phone call! We never text each other either...we have just been together longer than texting has existed so we never started the habit!

I have learned so much more about my wife through our phone calls while I am away. I have fallen more in love with the person she is. Before we were apart I took her for granted. Now I cherish every phone call and each time we are together.

We usually talk throughout the day, although sometimes we sometimes like to have a little time to ourselves too.

My husband used to be in the military and we didnt get to always talk so now that he is in a civilian job and we can talk more we do. we text at least once a day when he gets a signal and we talk when ever we can. we are a really close couple and do everyhting together so its not unusual for us to talk this much.

We text each other throughout the day. Some days more than others and it's never taken away from the time we spend together. It works for us.

it depends, if we have something to talk about then we talk, but sometimes we don't talk at all till we meet up again.

When we have time, we talk online throughout the day.

It really depends. We text some and maybe have a phone conversation briefly if there's something important to talk about. We mostly just send little sweet or funny texts all day and then talk about other things when we get home.

He can talk while at work because he's a delivery guy and has a blue tooth for his cell phone. Mostly though he'll text me when he has down time or is waiting for a stop to open.

Every day is different, sometimes often and other days never...depends on the day and how busy we are.

I've never lived with a partner so yeah I text though out the day. If I'm in a relationship I like to call the person at night too but sometimes that's not possible.

If we are apart traveling, usually no - being busy with whatever we are traveling for. If we are apart for casual reasons, then yes. Usually lots of Skype or text messages.

Right now we have no choice but to wait until he comes home from work because he no longer as a cell phone. When he had it, he would call me nearly 5 times a day and I would stop what I was doing and sit down right where I was standing, once I even sat on the back of the truck because I was cleaning the leaves out!

We'll talk occasionally during the day, but we're certainly not attached at the hip.

With both of my guys we talk often throughout the day. They will both call when coming home or just to say hi.

My partner and I communicate constantly whether we are together or not- the minute something interesting happens, he is the first person I want to tell, and I am the first person he wants to tell. As soon as something upsets me, I want to talk to him about it and vice versa. It's incredible to have someone who believes in communication as much as I do.

I'm in a LDR, the only way we have a relationship is if we talk. I thoroughly enjoy it, and it doesn't take away from our time together at all.
