How quickly do you normally respond? Does your W know that you are able to respond quickly? Hour is fine.
Resist any urge to send a message that would require or entice a reply. Make her come to you. If you send her a text that is open-ended, how are you going to feel when the W takes a long time to respond? Do that to her.
