If your SO goes away internationally for a holiday without you, how often would you ideally like to communicate with them while away, and would you be interested to see look through all their photos when they return?

With data/text free in most countries, I'd want her to text me whenever she thought of me. Sometimes that'd be multiple times in a day, others might be a few days in between.

For us, her habit is she usually texts me goodnight and good morning, so a.) I keep an eye out for those and b.) if I don't get one, I wanna make sure she's ok.

When it comes to pics, it's kind of like, I don't find myself wanting to look though every (potentially boring) photo, but at the same time it'd feel off if she were to exclude me from seeing them.

As a couple, we say we take a FOIA approach, as in, anything you want to see, you're allowed to see. No questions asked. I've never been a stickler about being private with my partners. If I make the choice to be with you, then you're my other half. If I'm not comfortable being open with someone altogether, I don't get into a relationship with them. But that's just me. I know other people who are very private with their partners. To each their own, I guess?
