solostand Posted September 13, 2013 Posted September 13, 2013 Yes I expect daily contact. I expect him to call me by 9 a.m. every morning. There was one morning he didn't call me until 10 so I told him how it feels to be worrying about him. Ever since then he calls me at 9 a.m. on the dot. We also talk about five times a day on the phone.
brittanyanderson Posted September 13, 2013 Posted September 13, 2013 without.constant.contact the single OW would drive herself crazy wondering whats going on. this is very true. I'm used to hearing from him everyday or at the least every other day, so when I go more than 1 day without hearing from him I definitely tend to freak out.
bentleychic Posted September 13, 2013 Posted September 13, 2013 I think the heavy phone/text contact in As is simply a compensation tool to make up for not being fully integrated in each others lives as in an open R. Plus theres a lot of the MM compensating involbed (ie well I cant spend the night with her, but Ill compensate for that by texting 40x day). Theres also validation and reassurance for the OW. In As there is a heightened risk of thimgs ending abruptly out of the blue. So without.constant.contact the single OW would drive herself crazy wondering whats going on. Very, very valid points.

This would also apply to long distance relationships, and not all OW/OM have constant contact with their MM/MW, heck some dont even have daily contact.
