Men want this over a woman!

Men want this over a woman!

 

I am the first to admit that we are no walk in the park- women can be difficult creatures, just like men- we are not perfect- but surely an actual person is better than a gadget for company? Apparently not- according to MobileSlots.com who has found that a fifth of men would prefer a new phone over a partner. Seriously?

More worryingly- 2% would consider leaving their current lady for a chance to have the lastest I phone 6 in their pockets. The outrage!  

A quarter of these men said that they had met their current partner using an app on their phone. Now that I can understand- having the most up to date technology to find a significant other- but given the choice- a phone can’t keep you warm in bed at night- that is unless it’s setting your bedclothes on fire if you leave it under your pillow.

It might help you to access porn but is that better than sex with a woman? Erm- no! And that slot is for your charger only people! 

It may not answer back, talk too much or moan at you, but hey the rough with the smooth guys! It would be nice not to have to pick up your clothes, smell your farts and make you dinner- but there are sacrifices that we all have to make to have some meaningful, personal interaction.  

3% of men believe that they have a closer relationship with their phones than their partner- it’s a phone!? How, just how?

2% have gone so far as to say that their phone has been the reason for their last relationship breakdown- well that makes sense if a small back box means more to him than a living breathing human being! 

One man who took part in the poll said: “I’ve heard so many great things about the new iPhone, I really want one. If I had the time and the money, I would be one of those nerds who would queue up outside the Apple stores the night before to be the first to get one.

If it came down to a choice between going on a date and queuing for the iPhone, the mobile would win every time.”

Another said: “I can’t believe someone would go for a new phone over a girlfriend. You only ever have one six months before it is out of date and you have to get a new one, the phone I mean.”

Darn right- it can take forever to find the one- but picking a phone out is easy. But if you are one of those men who always needs a 'newer model' then maybe a relationship is just not for you!  

A spokesperson for MobileSlots.com commented: “It’s really interesting to see how many people would go for a new phone over a new girlfriend. It just goes to show how much pulling power new Apple products have, especially when it comes to the iPhone. I was surprised to see how many people have found a partner through a mobile app. It’s quite astonishing really. I was pleased to see that only a tiny two per cent of those asked would leave their current partner for a new iPhone. After all, plastic and wires can’t replace lasting love.”

I love my I phone- there is no doubt about it- but if it came to a choice between my husband and my phone it’s a no brainer. I blame Siri- like Raj in The Big Bang Theory I think she is responsible for many a man thinking that there is some hot chick sat in a booth somewhere just waiting for them to find her and declare their undying love.
