Rainah Posted November 5, 2015 Posted November 5, 2015 Hello everyone, I have been with my boyfriend for about 2 - 3 months now and when we are out on dates I notice he will check his facebook/phone quickly. I did bring it up and he said it was just a 'bad habbit'. I really never understood the whole checking phone and social media constantly and this is the first guy who I've been with who does this so its a new experience for me. How do I keep myself calm and relaxed? I barely ever check my phone when I'm with him I guess anyone I am with I would have expected the same in return as its respectful isn't it? Or am I just looking too much into something silly?
PegNosePete Posted November 5, 2015 Posted November 5, 2015 Why do you need to keep calm and relaxed about it? Just tell him that you feel it is disrespectful, and makes you feel like he doesn't want to spend time with you. If he doesn't stop, don't see him again. At 2-3 months he should still be on best behaviour. If this is his best then imagine what his normal is like. 2
Glitters Posted November 5, 2015 Posted November 5, 2015 Apart from being obviously disrespectful or addiction, it is a sign of disinterest/boredom. You stay calm and relaxed by letting him stay with his phone and find a guy who would rather be with you.
Author Rainah Posted November 5, 2015 Author Posted November 5, 2015 (edited) Thanks for the quick responses, not what I was expecting, normally we text all day but it seems like this past week its more and more distant, we haven't texted in about 2 hours now and we usually text all the time so its out of the norm and as you both said since he is checking his phone/facebook with me that he is just not into me, I feared this was becomming the case, my gut feeling has been telling me this for about a week now. PS: He hasn't texted me for 2 hours but he has been on facebook 10 mins ago. Edited November 5, 2015 by Rainah
Iceshowers Posted November 5, 2015 Posted November 5, 2015 I agree with the others that he's not too interested in you or is bored. My date at the very beginning would pick up a phone call, but would dismiss them quick and hang up. Since we've been dating more often, he doesn't even look at his phone AT ALL. I think I check my phone more often than him, but I also have a child and told him that I need to make sure my child is ok. I also agree that it's disrespectful for someone to be on their phone/FB in the company of others, unless they didn't care about that person.
