I can email or text any time i like, but T only replies weekdays and not after 5.30pm. So evenings and weekends, i know i have to wait 'til the next day/Monday for a reply.

That said, he replies to everything i send, and we tend to email back and forth through the week, processing and clarifying between sessions, so i think i'm pretty lucky.

The Xmas holidays are the hardest. Major triggers for me coinciding with a 3-4 week break for him makes for very messy times. But even then i can send as many emails as i want or need to, and he'll reply two or three times a week, so i try to focus on the positives and keep the whiny 'where are youuuuu, it's not faaaaair, please reply soooon' emails to a minimum.
