Several times a day. I use pincity.com (2.9 cents per minute) as Nieves does not have internet access except on Sunday at the Internet cafe. I always call her and if she wants to talk to me she rings my phone and I return the call. November I called her 127 times(some voice mail messegages) for 1407 minutes for a total cost of $41.10. The service is very cheap for all of China I think.

So, how often?

hmm..a short question with a long answer...

where do i start...ok here it goes..

First,I am calling my hubby in the morning(my time)when i woke up 10-15 mins coz his@ work or sometimes his calling me but it happens everyday.

Second, i send him sms messages as well to keep in touch if that counts...lol

Third, we do voice chat thru YM or skype coz it's free and sending my pic of the day(thanks to DIGICAM)for about 2-3 hours a day after work and before he sleeps.

lastly, i am calling him morning in his time before going to work.

My daily routine that keeps me alive even far away from him.

FACTS: YM and skype=voice chat

tons of callcards spent for the last 5 years

more or less $ 300 charge for his phonebills

All all allll the time. At least three times a day, usually more like five or six, even if some of those calls are only for a couple of minutes. We spend a total of at least an hour on the phone every day, though. Sometimes several hours. Thanks to the combined wonders of Skype and me being able to make international calls from work without anyone batting an eyelid...

2005 - We met

2006 - Filed I-129F

2007 - K-1 issued, moved to US, completed AOS (a busy year, immigration-wise)

2009 - Conditions lifted

2010 - Will be naturalising. Buh-bye, USCIS! smile.png

everyday 3 times.

Before work we talk from yahoo messenger with voice.

I call his regular phone from this place since it's the cheapest. 1 cent pr min.

If he calls me it's alot more.

We use to use skype for free, but it doesn't work so well for us nomore.

Too many disconnections.

Then we call from work for a few min sice it's regular call.

After work we chat on yahoo and sometimes talk.

If this routine break he is calling me through a phonecard.

Webcam we used alot once.

But my computer isn't too good nomore so we can't do both at the same time.

Finally we type alot of emails and sending gifts to eachother. And we share photoes when new things happen.

This way we have done for 3 years.

I have to tell also that I can't forget that even my friends are jealous.

They do have their husband/wife close to them every night and day.

But still they don't have so much attention and close talk.

And they do not feel the same love.

Minimum 3 times a day. With an hour difference I wake her in the morning for a 10 to 20 minute chat then she calls at her lunch time for a 20 30 minute chat and at night normally we start at 7:15 and go straight through to 9:30 or 10 depending on how tired we both are.

Yesterday she was feeling pretty bad with a cold and everything that follows so we talked for about 10 minutes every 2 hour until 1 am my time then I called her 5 am her time. Only two conversations so far today she is still under the weather.

Answering for how things were before he was in the US: about twice a week, usually for a couple hours (he's a night owl, so about 6-8 pm Eastern which is 11-1am in the UK), and we would IM every day, sometimes twice a day.

But we were really just friends for most of the time before he was here (and we rarely talked on the phone while we were just friends), we started dating just a few months before he came to the US on a work visa (after he'd already been offered the job).
