e-Love

[Redguard]

How many of you are able to connect with your spouse on an electronic level throughout the day?

- email
- text message
- msn/aol/icq/yahoo messenger

If you can, do you send them little love messages? Naughty erotic messages? Etc?

My wife's job doesn't allow her to be accessible by phone unless she's on a break, or on lunch. I usually send a text message every day since she can at least read those without looking unproductive.

If anything, I just hope that it's able to put a smile on her face in case she's having a sour day.

So... yeah, what kind of e-Love do you participate in, if any?

My husband and I e-mail each other throughout the day. Usually just about what's going on at each of our offices or deciding on dinner. Fairly boring stuff but it's still nice to see an e-mail from him, lets me know he's thinking about me. I'd be too afraid to get too "personal" in our e-mails, never know if any of the tech guys read our e-mails and that'd be no good

Yeah... if it was a case of us emailing each other, I wouldn't make little T&A symbols in the message. I'm sure txt msgs on cell phone are pretty safe.

Yes I email my husband throughout the day. I also normally just email about dinner and what's going on. I do tell him I love him by email though...even when doing this I triple check the address to make sure I'm not going to accidentally send it to everyone I work with! I think I'd be checking the addy at least ten times if I were going to send anything naughty.

I think people with British accents sound funny when they talk naughty... kinda like Austin Powers.

"Do I make you randy?"

lol

That's a good policy to stand by. It happens more than you think these days. Email != privacy.

Just a reminder to be aware of where these messages are physically stored. Hint: not necessarily on your phone/PDA/computer, but with your providers.

For some who might not have heard....Paris Hilton's cell phone address books and to do lists (including pics) were hacked and posted on the web, as they weren't actually stored on her phone (as many people think they are).

More seriously, CIA employees who saved sensitive information on their phone/PDA thinking that's where it was actually being stored.

 

[Oblivious]

Yes, one of us either emails or calls each other usually everyday if our work schedules allow it.

Sending love messages, especially "naughty erotic messages" is not a good idea to send via work email IMO. Most network administrators who have a clue can monitor and read all of your emails. If someone got bent out of shape, it could be your job. You never know.

We're mostly in the same house, but we IM a lot anyway.

I am a SAHW and my husband works from home so we are fortunate to be able to communicate in person all day...

 

[snoochface]

My husband telecommutes and I don't work (at the moment anyway) except at home, so we're able to talk in person if the need arises. Since his office is in the basement and mine is in the living room, we IM all day long about silly little love-type things, boring mundane things, funny things we're seeing on the news/TV/radio/websites, etc. When either of us has to be out, we text message back and forth a lot. We do a lot of e-loving, I guess

I'm not married, but I send my SO messages throughout the day on MSN to let her know she's loved, wanted and appreciated.

 

[jaimegerise]

For a long time, I'd send loving ecards to my husband...but never really got a response about them much. I was trying to be romantic, but he treated is almost as if it was an annoyance.

Is it any wonder we are in the process of divorcing?
