other. So that i don't look like an alcoholic loser when in a pub on my own and pretend to be texting a companion to see why there are late in joining me.

I don't stare at my phone at all. Yes, I'm old.

Chose other, as I don't have nor do I want a smart phone.

Porn. I just wanted a flip phone. Something that just sends and recieves phone calls and messages. I had an old flip phone. They would not activate it because they said it was no longer supported, but had I activated it a few days earlier, they would. Too much crapware on a smart phone. When I got my current phone new, it was loaded with adds. I mean you get an add when you try to make a call, and it takes forever to get to the dialer. What if I need to call 911? Battery life sucks, takes about a day to charge.

I was at my ex's house a while ago. Her daughter ran out of minutes, but wanted to call her BF. I said she could use my phone b/c it had unlimited minutes. It was my dad's flip phone because I was waiting for my new phone to come in. She opened it up and said "I don't know how to use this". I said you type in the number then press the green button. My GF could not stop laughing.

I have friends that have kids that don't believe that cell phones were as big as a brick. If they weren't so expensive, I'd get a bag phone. Gets reception like no other...

Why isn't stalking an option????

I voted other just because there are 4 basic answers... email, texting and reading. Often, it just pure avoidance of an uncomfortable situation. I'm not a people person and like to look busy when I'm mentally absent.

Yep, back in your day there was so much interaction...

I checked "other" but here is my situation. I have 2 cell phones - one to call with and the other to text with only if I have to text. Only one phone is able to text and I have little money invested here. I will not ever spend $700 to $1200 plus for some idiotic thing that I can carry around and smile at as I look down on it constantly messaging or whatever it is that people do. I have enough insanity in my life as it is without buying into this nonsense. I use a phone for communication.Not so long ago a person I know got my number and said that we could now text each other all the time. Guess what? It doesn't happen because this is a game I am not going to play. Text me if it is important.

                                                            TEXTING GAME
