For those that have a long distance relationship, do you text all the time and FaceTime everyday?

So, I met someone in my state however he had to go back where he lives which is 3 hours and half away from me, we see each other around twice a month or 3 (all depends) we FaceTime everyday, and we used to text a lot before and we were always checking on each other, he asked me to be his GF and he does not text me all the time, however he checks in and tries to have a conversation, sometimes his job can be demanding.
However we talk at night for hours and sometimes we only do 30 mins.. however I am new at this long distance relationship.. we eventually said, we will get married so I am trying to see if I can move closer.


What to expect?, I am just struggling not to be able to see him as much as before.

I was long distance for around 2 years with my now husband, we would see eachother for the weekend wvery 6 weeks and would text and face time as much as our jobs allowed.

I worked hospitality so I was shift and weekend work and he was a lorry driver who worked 6-4 week days so It was rare that we could message for more than 5-10 minutes at a time and face times could only happen occasionally.

Its not about the frequency of the communication, as long as the communication means something.

We've known each other for 8 years now, together for 7.5, and married for 3.5 years. I do think it helps that neither of us where particularly interested in a relationship so there was no pressure.

in my case it’s different, we both want a relationship, we both have kids and are divorced.. he asked me to be hisGF a week before he was supposed to go back to his state, however it has been super difficult for me, we have talked about the future already and we will potentially get married but not until we are both 💯 sure and we know well before doing that.

Thank you for reading this far

STD rates and body count

Saw an interesting video and I’d love to hear everyone’s thoughts on this topic!

So std rates are at an all time high as we all know. Do you think the mindset that body count doesn’t matter has contributed to the significant increase of STDs and HIV?

Secondly if someone says that body count doesn’t matter do you believe they are less likely to practice safe sex compared to people who believe in more traditional values?

I can’t put all the combinations in the poll so feel free to comment just yes/no answers

If your partner got a prostitute pregnant and then abandoned the child/ran away, what would be your response? Read…

So you were not in a relationship at the time or were about to be in a relationship, he gets the prostitute pregnant.
It’s her fault for not taking their morning after pill.
He tells her straight up that he’s not going to be involved and that she should terminate it.
She says that she won’t terminate and she hopes that he does stick around

So she deliberately gets pregnant, basically traps him

What would be your reaction?
he’s response is:
“She trapped me and it’s her fault for not taking the pill”
