The other day I got unmatched by a girl on a dating app because she wanted my WhatsApp and not a phone number. We literally had already agreed to go on a first date and then she's like "I don't use my phone much so you need to use WhatsApp" and I'm like "I don't have WhatsApp, here's my cell number: XXX-XXX-XXXX" and then she disappeared from my matches on Hinge lol
A few possible guesses.
I'm leaning towards number 2 if you're outside the US, because I imagine I'd rather set up a new profile than change my phone number. If you're inside the US, I'd bet it's number 3. Whatsapp doesn't seem to be as popular in the US.
Two of us can play this game, if she ain't using linux or some BSD I'm leaving (but not after installing minimal gentoo and leave it without an internet connection on all her devices for her to figure out)
That's great! I wouldn't date a woman who'd dismiss a person based on the phone they use. Saves time, really.
I am so tired of hearing this bs. Android cost just as much, if not more than apple (iPhone 15 cost $800, Google pixel 8 cost $700 and yes that's an Android phone), we have just as good a camera as iPhone, our designs are ever evolving meanwhile iPhone is stuck in the past by at least 4 years, if not more, and the only reason videos look like shit over text is because of the weird formatting the company put in. Please, for the love of all that is holy, explain to us what is so appealing about iphone?
Maybe if you’re 15.
Men, you've just dodged an ICBM.
This makes me want to migrate back to Android. This is the kind of woman that will be crying in her Tik Toks about being single at 35 in her car at Applebees.
If you curve a good person because of the phone they use then THEY dodged a bullet, not the phone elitists
You'll basic
That's the problem Katarina. You're hanging out with stupid people.
This isn't a thing, especially when you can barely tell the difference by looking at the phone alone. It's going to be like 90% phone case, and most phones are practically very little bezel screens so you can't tell from the front.
Met a woman online, chatted a bit and she wanted to Facetime. Dumped me because I didn't have an Apple, couldn't use that app.
Sounds like a win for you.
If you take a second to look at something that appears superfluous like that you start to see the underlying hatred there. No free thought, fall in line square activity and cut out anyone who isn't of the arian race, I mean doesn't have a white phone. Sorry, typo.
(Obviously this comment is not meant to be taken literally, but yes I equated iPhone users to conservatives, while implying Android users would be independent free thinkers)
"I prefer a phone that lasts as long as I do"
Pull out your Nokia 3310.
always knew that my blackberry will get me laid
Real women don't care. Some of us even prefer others have Android
I have owned both Androids and iPhones and they both suck. I should probably look into the fringe brands.
I'd never judge someone for their stupid phone. Hell, if it's some ancient Razr flip phone or keyboarded BlackBerry type thing, I'll be impressed.
We're all in this boring dystopia together, dammit.
My Lineage OS phone is much more secure than your dumbass iPhone.
I might discriminate against a guy with an iPhone. Maybe. But only if he was on it all the time while we were out.
This makes me want one of those rotary cell phones, just to see what happens.
curve this waves fairphone
only because pinephones are barely usable and librems insanely priced! Or you can damn well believe I'd have a native linux phone.
