The last girlfriend I had I saw everyday with because we moved in together after our first date. We had also worked with each other for years beforehand so I guess for us that was the “getting to know you” phase of our relationship.
Funny I was just thinking about how I don’t see her enough and it’s starting to be a problem. We both have kids (she has her twins all the time, her ex passed away years ago, I have my daughter 50/50), we both work full time but she has a very demanding and stressful 10 hours a day job. We’ve been together for a year and half, depending on what you mean by “together” (we were pretty intimate fwb for almost a year) and our kids are the same exact age and best friends. We see each other usually once during the week, after her kids go to bed, for a few hours. Sometimes I have dinner with them. Then usually we all get together Saturday in the afternoon till evening. That’s it.
The big problems other than lack of time, are that she is hard to text with. It takes her hours usually to get back to me. She’s kinda better when not at work, but even on days off, it’s pretty frustrating. It’s really not until later at night when the kids are asleep that she has time to text me and have a conversation to some extent. And the big one is she has a really hard time sleeping with people so we rarely have sleep overs. Which really hinders intimacy.
It gets hard too because she complains when I get a little “distant” and don’t text much but that’s cause it haven’t seen her in days and don’t get replies to texts until I’ve lost focus on what I was texting about lol.
This sounds harsh but it genuinely is a lack of time for her. She is frustrated too and does try really hard to make time. But it honestly feels like she just isn’t really a part of my life.
We live 12 minutes apart but she is moving 30 minutes away next month and I fear that will be the killer. She’s really cool and we get along great. We genuinely love each other. This time problem was amplified right when we really became “official”. She had a demanding job already, but got promoted and it’s almost consumed her life. She has little time for anything so I don’t push or ask for more. She hardly has time for her kids and relies on her dad to watch them a lot. Her life is very hectic and I admire her ability to hold it all together honestly. But she just doesn’t have time for anything really meaningful.
Not often enough as far as I’m concerned. I think she feels the same. But we live together so we see each other as much as possible.
As far as going out, depends what you consider going out. We go out to dinner at least once a week but that’s not like a fancy dinner or anything like that. Actually going out for like a night on the town or whatever, maybe every couple months
My now wife when we were dating it was all weekend, and probably 2-3 times a week for the first 6-8 months. Then it just gradually became more to where I was basically living in her house. So we discussed me getting rid of my apartment and moving in with her.
We lived in her house for a year then I bought a house for both of us and we’ve been living there ever since six years later
When we began dating it was about 2 or 3 times a week. Later on I just went by her home when I got out of work two times a week, and we spent weekends together.
We were ready to move in together. We did about 4 years ago, then got married two years later, and it’s been absolutely wonderful. We never even had a fight.
Two or three times a week. We live a few minutes apart but we both have our own lives, hobbies, and friends. We talk every day throughout the day though. It works for us.
once or twice a month. Except this month, seems like I’ll be seeing her every week. Saw her Tuesday, our anniversary on Sunday, then her best friend’s bday brunch the following Sunday.
I’ll bet no one spends as much time with their GF as i do with mine.
We are together 24 hours a day, almost every day for nearly two years.
The only times we’re apart is when one of us, usually me, goes to the store or has an appointment. The only time we’ve spent away from each other was when she went to visit her family for five days.
We spend most of our time in two tiny rooms.
We don’t “go out” together much.
One of us usually stays home to take care of the home and pets.
We’ve taken a few short trips together, like 2 or 3 days at the beach.
Twice a week normally. a date or hanging out with friends together on the weekend and usually for a dinner at her or my house after work during middle of the work week.
I see my girlfriend 2-3 days a week. If it’s a weekday we’ll hangout after work and we spend the whole day together on weekends. Last week was July 4th weekend so we hung out 5 days in a row, which was a first for me.
When I was with my first/ex girlfriend we’d only see each other once a week for a few hours, usually on a Sunday at her house for dinner (with her mom). Sometimes we would go a week or two (once we went three weeks) without seeing each other.
By the time we were dating a few months, my now-husband and I were usually spending 5 nights/week together, the other 2 being for his writing night and a laundry/house chores night.
My girlfriend and I usually see each other 3-4 times a week. It’s enough to keep things fresh but not so much that we get sick of each other. Plus, it gives us time to miss each other, which is always nice! What about you guys?
Every day. She stays with me on the weekends and during the week, she brings me dinner at work and hangs out for a bit, and in some cases I’ll stop by her place before I go home for the night. Plus we game and talk on discord every night.

I see her every single day.
We live together
Twice a week. We live 10 minutes apart, which is unusual for where we live. We do a mid-week date and a weekend day/overnight.
Once you get into spending every day together, it is very difficult to go back.
I see her every other week, hard to do :/
You guys have gf’s?
The last girlfriend I had I saw everyday with because we moved in together after our first date. We had also worked with each other for years beforehand so I guess for us that was the “getting to know you” phase of our relationship.
Way back when I had a real GF, once during the week, and then Friday afternoon until Saturday night.
As often as I can get away from my wife.
Generally once per week because I’ve been working a lot and she doesn’t live super close.
Daily

24/7
Before my now-wife and I moved in together, we saw each other Friday night, Saturday, Sunday, and one day during the week.
Once a week, we’re an hour apart
When we began dating it was about 2 or 3 times a week. Later on I just went by her home when I got out of work two times a week, and we spent weekends together.
We were ready to move in together. We did about 4 years ago, then got married two years later, and it’s been absolutely wonderful. We never even had a fight.
Me and my hand see each other every night
How long is a piece of string… there’s so many factors that affect thos answer.
Two or three times a week. We live a few minutes apart but we both have our own lives, hobbies, and friends. We talk every day throughout the day though. It works for us.
Once a month. She lives one US state away.
Once or twice. I like a lot of time to myself.
My gf and I live 15-20 min away from each other. We sleep over at each other’s place every night. At this point we should just move in together
She’s in another province right now for remote field work so currently 0 but usually we will hangout like 3-5 times a week
once or twice a month. Except this month, seems like I’ll be seeing her every week. Saw her Tuesday, our anniversary on Sunday, then her best friend’s bday brunch the following Sunday.
4 is about the sweet spot for me.
Enough not to miss her but not so much when we meet up doesn’t feel like a treat.
I’ll bet no one spends as much time with their GF as i do with mine.
We are together 24 hours a day, almost every day for nearly two years.

We’ve taken a few short trips together, like 2 or 3 days at the beach.
Like 2 to 3 times. We live at the extreme opposites of our city so it’s a journey for either of us
We work at the same company so almost daily
Twice a week normally. a date or hanging out with friends together on the weekend and usually for a dinner at her or my house after work during middle of the work week.
I see my girlfriend 2-3 days a week. If it’s a weekday we’ll hangout after work and we spend the whole day together on weekends. Last week was July 4th weekend so we hung out 5 days in a row, which was a first for me.

2-3 times a month. Were medium distance, about 3 hours away
Once a week during the weekend.
5 months LDR and 1 week of seeing each other 😂
As often as I can without my wife finding out. Bad-umm tiss. 🥁
Haven’t seen her in months. Long distance relationships suck but we make it work by seeing each other at least 3 times a year
As we are long distance it’s basically zero. 😭
Everyday I live with her.
Every night?
Not enough
Usually 2 nights a week we have different work schedules and don’t want to interrupt each other’s sleep
I’d say maybe 2-5 times a week. Depends so much of how much other things we have going on, seeing friends etc.
Thy cake day is now
By the time we were dating a few months, my now-husband and I were usually spending 5 nights/week together, the other 2 being for his writing night and a laundry/house chores night.
