Hi Jeanie, You also need to understand that what your friend affirmed up there seems to be what I termed medicine after death. The fact that her ex. got married gave rise to her thinking she had been a side chick. Let me tell you a little about my past relationship. I met my ex. about 4 years ago, I developed such a feeling for her that I barely stay a day without calling her. The truth is no matter how busy one's partner is, when you truly love him or her, you won't take your chance for granted. Your heart will always be there even if your schedules are tight, you will create time to either put a call through or send a text. She didn't appreciate my call or text. I would send text at least once a day and she barely respond to my texts. Yet I didn't bother. I endured for a long period but she won't just understand my needs. Things turn crazy when I met a new lady who gives me attention, returns virtually any of my call she missed or rather she'll send text if she's out of call card. I feel fulfilled though I love my ex. to the call but I began channeling all my love to my new woman as she understands my needs. Now my ex. wants my attention, she calls very often than usual, would send me text but I will always ignore because that's not who she is. She's only missing out something..
So I will conclude it's not healthy if you boo or bae doesn't call or text most especially call is very important. It fosters communication and makes the hearts connect with each other.
I hope you would see from my point of view.
Thanks for sharing your story
And i buy into your view calling your partner is important and a sign of love but doesnt really guarantee it
