Yeah... I know this problem all too well. I am the same as you, it irritates the fuck out of me. Even if we are just sitting watching tv it bothers me. If every time I look at her or want to talk to her she has her face in her phone I hate it. Is my company that boring you need it? If it is then fuck off lol... No need to be here if my company is so boring that you need that. I have tried so much to get her away from it and nothing has worked all that well. I honestly don't think it is a personal thing against me, it's more habitual/addiction but it still irritates the fuck out of me. I found playfully taking the phone from her worked at first but then after a while it just started pissing her off. Making a point to get her attention seems to work well sometimes, but then sometimes i feel that it just comes off as needy. probably what worked the best for me though is doing exactly what she does, pick up your phone, make sure that bastard is dinging non stop and it won't be long before she wants your attention.
feel like that was just a bit of a ramble so i apologise for the pain of reading it lol but i do suggest trying my last suggestion!! doesn't permanently fix anything but it's a good temporary fix.
When I first read oceanx's reply to find a different woman, I thought it was pretty extreme. Now I kinda agree. Not looking at your cell phone for a while, especially when your bf tells you it's annoying is simple shit. I used to smoke cigarettes. You know what I did when a gf was bothered by me smoking cigarettes around them? I stopped smoking around them. Simple. And thats a REAL addiction. I stopped smoking cigarettes around them, because if I care about them, as you'd assume if they're by gf, I wouldnt want to knowingly bother someone with my addiction. Simple. Same way I didnt smoke around friends who didnt like smoke. You guys are dating some shitty gfs if they cant turn the phone off.
They dont respect you. They dont give a fuck about you. If she worked a job where she couldnt look at her phone all the time, she'd stop looking at the phone for 8 hours a day. There is no reason these women cant do the same for you. And then they have the balls to be pissed at you guys for being irritated?! You guys are dating some selfish women if they cant at least do something simple to make you happy. I cant even blame the women, because why would they do anything to make you happy when you'll accept anything. Then you guys will wonder why the sex has dried up, she's talking to another dude and she's just selfish in other areas. Have some fucking standards. If your gf doesnt care about you for simple shit, she doesnt care about you for the bigger stuff.
