[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it depends a lot on the tone of your relationship prior to him leaving for vacation. I don't think it's unreasonable to expect a phone call once or twice a day if your relationship is serious and committed.  some relationships are and some aren't at 6 months so it's hard to say.

For comparison, my husband calls about twice a day when he is on work trips- once in the morning to say hi to the kids and usually at night when he is back in his hotel.  very occasionally we might exchange a few texts too but that is rarer.  I don't think my expectation of these phone calls makes me needy, but this is something that works for both of us and is an understood part of the relationship.

I would just talk to him when you get back- don't guilt him or lay it on just say hey, I think we should talk about where we are in the relationship and what expectations you each have about communication.[/quote]

You're married. That's quite different.

Communicating daily seems perfectly normal for married couples. For a boyfriend of six months, expecting 1-2 phones every day is needy, especially when he is willing to text.[/quote]
