Are you bored? If not, who cares?
My husband and I do this, or we’ll send
pictures of ourselves / our daughter. It’s cute to know he’s thinking of & missing us.
Cute

Yes, ditto for my wife and I. This is quite normal. You are not boring. Media has convinced us that each day has to be exciting in a defined way and it can break relationships and break people
Hahah my husband and I definitely do that. We just like to keep in touch throughout the day. It definitely doesn't make you boring.
It is nice. Honestly what’s boring is that sometimes nothing really comes up during the day so send the same texts a few days a week.
Same and it’s not boring.

Thats what married people do. Its not an affair, it will be mundane.
Most single people text same boring stuff with their parents. They call their parents when they are going to work, call during breaks, call when they reach hotel etc. i see that with my single middle aged colleagues all day long.
That’s a fair point
We do the same! Funny memes, dinner recommendations, letting each other know about personal appointments… I don’t think you’re boring!
We don't have the type of jobs to call and txt multiple times a day. I occasionally txt or call family members, and friends , and delete emails on my down time at work.
I text and talk to him at times
I wish I had someone special to text and visa versa but just dating

How old are you if you don’t mind me asking?
Kinda like others have mentioned, if its not boring for you, who cares. Do what works best for you and your spouse. I think its cool. Especially if you can share funnies with each other or picture or videos of kids. My wife and I share pics or videos of our new grandson, which we love and enjoy.
It’s just knowing you care to check in. If you don’t care to check in, don’t. Stop complaining

I have a public facing job so my phone is kept in my locker. During breaks I try to take a walk outside instead of grabbing my phone. But sometimes I'll check texts. I definitely check before driving home in case I need to pick something up along the way. So no, we don't really do that. But I wouldn't think it's boring that you do. I just guess you like each other
