Phones and dating

Having a tough time finding love?

Might be time for an upgrade!

A new study found that almost one-third of singles wouldn’t date someone using an older phone (like a flip phone) that couldn’t support certain apps they use.

Another 20% said it’s a turn-off if the other person’s phone doesn’t have the same operating system i.e. you’re a first-level iPhoner and they Android.

And another 10% said a cracked smartphone screen is a major turn-off, because it makes you seem cheap, clumsy, careless…or all three!

It IS becoming more and more acceptable to use your phone while on a date…almost half are OK with that.

Is that good news…or bad?
