Isn't It Wrong To Chat On Your Phone While On A Date? by acidtalk: 9:02pm On Apr 01, 2012
It is a common sight today seeing people chatting away with their phones (especially BlackBerry phones) while on a date.

You can't but imagine what went wrong with the old notion that "First Impression last long". Courtsy demands that while on dates (first time or one milliont time) one should respect and treat the other partner special and make them believe they are the only one existing in that environment at that moment.

Making use of your phone makes the other partner feel they are boring and aren't wanted at that particular moment.

Nairalanders, who is more guilty in this scenerio, the Ladies or the Guys?

Just like one who was chatting and smiling while I was talking only for her to pop up with the question while still facing her bb: can you please come again? I acted as though I wanted to ease myself, went to pay for my meal and I left her there stylishly to pay for hers.. About 80mins later, I got a 4-page sms from her . . .

I RESPECT DUDES LIKE YOU.
What you can't take on the 2nd date don't dare pretend it is okay on the first.

Though she will be upset but one thing is for sure, she WILL NEVER try same behavior with another guy.

@OP
i see nothing wrong in answering an important phone call during a date, so long as you excuse yourself and make that call as short as possible...........same thing with ping/sms, quickly reading a msg you just received is ok, spending the whole date texting is not.

people have lives and responsibilities before they met you, and probably would have these same responsibilities after they meet you, so why pretend that some things are NOT more important than the date, when some could be.

i think people send the wrong messages (and are truly irresponsible) when they pretend that nothing else matters in this world but THAT DATE. lol!

That is so extremely annoying and impolite. If the guy cant put his phone away while on a date with me, I'd warn him and if he persists, I'd excuse myself. Simple[b]s[/b]!

Good man! Let her have enough time her fone buddy that's so damn more important. As for me, not only when on dates, even if we are just having a discussion and all u r doing is typing away the next time u look up m gone. No time jor It's just plain disrespectful
