What's the Rule?

Do you have rules? You know, relationship rules. I guess I have no rules. Like, what, you somehow insist you won’t call the significant other more than once a day? And never if you saw them the same day?

No more than one email every 24 hours? And never reply to more than one from them a day, even if they send six?

My sister is not happy unless she’s on the phone with her husband at least once every two hours. A thought will strike her, no matter how trivial, and up will come the phone. He’s the same way.

And I would be, except that the significant other seems to be permanently out to lunch. Can you say “too much attention makes one nervous”?

Which are you? Do you have rules? I don’t.
