Butt dialing? I would never carry a cell phone in my hip pocket.

I understand absolutely none of thus!

Hasn't happened to me yet. You make some good points about intentionality. Something I'll keep in mind... or perhaps use!

I haven't butt dialled for a long time, I have an ex whose name begins with A would would always be the recipient, so I amended her name in my contacts by placing a "Z" in front of it.
I seem to receive them from people whose phone rings the last person they called, even if it happens to be a few days later. Don't usually get to talk, only hear them shuffling papers or talking to somebody else.

Few butt dials, but l do get lot of assholes.

The other day I couldn't find my cell phone. So I called myself, using our landline. But my cell phone wasn't ringing. I realized I'd misdialed and hung up.

Five minutes later a woman called me wanting to know why I called her. Why? I hung up the phone before you answered because I did not want to talk to you. Because we had nothing to talk about. I guess we can talk about me hitting a "4" instead of a "5." Now we are talking, which I didn't want.

Not every phone call is a gem. In fact 90 percent of them are a waste of time. So, you know, don't call people who didn't complete the phone call connection. They hung up for a reason.

I receive very few calls. Most are from people who want to sell me water purification, home owners insurance or sometimes Jesus. I enjoy it when someones butt thinks of me and gives me a quick call. Excuse me, the phone is ringing.... Maybe someones butt is calling.

No one calls my number except Dr's offices. People accidentally call me on Messenger though.

Is that likely to happen? Weird question. And why would you have an MO for something that someone else (unintentionally) initiates?

Haven't got one in a while.

I don't really have an M.O either way unless they owe my money.

I'll take them however I can get them.

I have an open mind is always a curiosity complexity when indulging in an emotional endeavor.

Depends on interest level. Maybe call back if I have time. If not send a text.

Same as any other butt dial; hello? hello? hang up

Or something like this happens: Murder Plot Derailed By Butt Dial, Police Say [huffingtonpost.ca]

Mine are "thigh dials." At least you are in their phone if it happens. That means something!

They must have a pointy butt, to hit all the numbers, yes?

Explain "butt dial" please?

This is why I don't want a smart phone, ever. Spent way more time reading up on the topic than I care to admit. I've been clueless about this as I've had a death grip on my dumb phone for 12 years now. I LOVE my phone. It's too bad they don't make them anymore. Don't ask me what it is because I'm trying to collect what I can find in good condition. If I can get another 12 years out of a single phone I'll be happy.

And I'm not convinced my "butt dialer" wasn't being clever. . . after silence on my end he upped the ante. idk wtf to do w/him.

And for all those who hammered me on my neighbor thread this is the guy, and he knew waaay more about me than I could've ever dreamed. So FU to those who dogpiled me.
