    If someone dumps me on a first date over my phone then so be it. It actually looks like dodging a bullet.

    Men, proudly drag that battered and cracked android phone out on the first date, it’s a litmus test for shallow people, apparently.

    I went on a first date with a girl I met from work. She farted loud enough to be heard over drunken yelling and music in the steakhouse we were in, immediately after saying “I don’t get embarassed”.

    In a couple of weeks, we will have been together for 16 years. We’ve been married for 14 years. We cook together every evening, we hold each other whenever we are in the same room for more than five minutes, and on the rare nights where we aren’t taking each other’s clothes off, we fall asleep wrapped around each other. I would have missed out on a perfect relationship if I had judged her for a phone.

    If a woman is that shallow and materialistic then the guy is dodging a bullet. Anyhow, it’s a weird thing to say since “android phone” could mean literally anything from a basic $100 smartphone all the way up to a $50,000 Vertu diamond and white alligator skin. i.e. it could mean the guy is sensible with his money or even more shallow and materialistic than the girl could ever dream to be.

      Could mean that he enjoys a near complete lack of privacy, likes to use a samsung web browser, has his life assfucked by Google, likes shovelware, or wants a phone that only gets updates for 3 years. I’d be suspicious too.

        Yeah… Or it could be the complete opposite of all that.
