How would you guys handle this in the initial steps of dating if it bothers you that she is looking at her phone constantly, and you are barely getting to know her but you know it bothers you.. would you tell her something playfully, tell her straight up or do you just take it as just a lost battle with women in this social media/attention seeking era ? .. Ive seen this more and more constantly not only with me but with friends as well,, I still believe its disrespectful, but they don't know better.

I personally do not like that. I personally would not take that.

A female friend told me though that she does it when with a dude she sees as ''just friends''. Which makes sense, high interest level chick would not even notice if a bee was on her forehead not to talk about her phone going off

How do you handle it? If you're having dinner, you could up and bounce ''hey i'm headed out, i'll pay my tab up front'' react in a way she knows you wont take sheet but you could care less about her regardless.

Low interest chic you're not hitting is a disease you do not want.

Depends on the situation, if you're sitting at a table together for dinner and she's on her phone constantly then finish up and go home.
If you go the loo and you come back and she's checking facebook or something then she's just idling her time until you get back.

Don't over-react about stuff!! Just be relaxed.

It really depends on what she's checking on her phone.

If she's doing a check-in on Facebook AND tagging you in the post, that's probably good. I went on a few dates with a woman who was a compulsive Facebooker and she did this. On the other hand, if you're FB friends but she doesn't tag you in the check-in, that's a red flag.

If she's texting someone or constantly checking for messages, especially if you're sitting right there and not taking a bathroom break or whatever, that's a definite sign of low interest.

I might have phrased it a little differently but truer words were never spoken.

I agree it can be Low Interest. However, some chicks just have their phones out all the time, no matter what, even if they were talking to The President. I'd say: "Is everything okay?" Try to give her a hint, or a chance to correct her bad behavior. Covertly let her know that you're not used to chicks constantly checking their phones when you're around them. This, in itself, could raise her interest: "who is this MAN that does not put up with me being a 24/7 AW?? I'm intrigued."

If its constantly checking then its low interest. But if it's a quick swipe or glance every now and then then she puts it away, then she's either bored or nervous, so remember to escalate guys!

I went on a date one time and this girl was constantly texting and checking her phone. I put up with it until she forgot some of the conversation we were having because she had to text someone. I simply put enough cash on the table to cover our dinner and said " Seems like you would rather have someone else sitting here. Why dont you call them and invite them, dinners on me" and i walked out.

I was on a date where the girl at the very beginning was sitting there acting preoccupied on her phone. we were sitting on a bench having ice cream. so when she finally looked up and started talking I simply had my phone out and pretended I didnt hear what she said and said to hang on I had to reply to a text..She got the hint pretty quick cuz her phone didnt make an appearance the rest of the night. In that particular instance I think she was either nervous and or testing me. This was a second date btw and she showed up acting totally different than on our first date, well until the phone thing happened and then we fell back into our own rhythm. I think girls do this **** sometimes to test, others because of low interest, but either way its kinda rude if it goes on for any length of time. I called her out on it in a playful way and it immediately shifted things. I think thats the best way to go about it.

My version of shiat-test. How/if she answers says a LOT to me about her character. If she apologizes profusely for taking the call or responding to the text, I assume good things about her. But if she engages in the conversation long, I've pretty much decided in my mind that it's time to focus on other women.[/QUOTE]


Great Mindset to learn from Espi. Thanks

I think its kind of rude, but most the time I ignore it. It kind of shows me how interested she is.. Or I might tease them and say, hope its not your boyfriend texting you, wondering where you are.
 

Peace and Quiet

If you currently have too many women chasing you, calling you, harassing you, knocking on your door at 2 o'clock in the morning... then I have the simple solution for you.

Just read my free ebook 22 Rules for Massive Success With Women and do the opposite of what I recommend.

This will quickly drive all women away from you.

And you will be able to relax and to live your life in peace and quiet.

Set a cell phone boundary with her.

Just kidding.

You should be the main attraction on the date.

Not status updates/text messages coming in from other people on her phone.

That is rude since you are treating her to a nice evening.

If her attention needs to be directed on the phone instead of you that means you don't have enough value to keep her interest.

Why to you keep taking her out on dates to be insulted?

Don't treat her to nice dates when she doesn't appreciate it not giving YOU the full attention.

She doesn't deserve to be treated to nice dates.

Keep her home and take a respectful woman out instead that will give you attention instead of her phone.
