My girlfriend is addicted to her mobile and facebook, why does it grate me soo much?

[James]

I see my gf most days and when I do she constantly has her phone in her hand or is on Facebook. It's not that I don't trust her but I just think its f**king rude. I have tried to tell her but she doesn't listen. What should I do?

[Emily]

I've experienced it before with my ex. Definitely annoying and exceptionally rude

[Tucker]

Give her an ultimatum; the phone, or you.
Or find more constructive activities to do with her, such as going out to eat or the movies or something.

Well, it is rude! Unfortunately most young people treat devices today as their best friends and their real friends as incidental appendages to their virtual world.

Maybe an intervention is in order. Send her away to a device-free rehab until she learns how to interact with people (you) face to face. Or, get a new girlfriend (one with, at best a dumbphone).

It's no big deal. It's not rude. I do the exact same thing and thank GOD my bf doesn't mind!!!

[HIGAMON]

you remind me of my self when i was younger you put up with her non sence because you want a girl friend and perhaps a piece but you really think shes a twit f her until you find someone better

[Rish]

try to explain it to her again, in a calm way ofc.
tell here that you feel ignored or sth

[Angie]

tell her to leave that shit

if you are smart with computers and phones, try to prevent her from the internet by blocking access to those sites longer than 10 minutes a day. if she will crry after 3 days, you'll have to put her down
