Use your android without concern, any girl that cares about your phone that much can self-curve herself and save you problems down the road.
Counter-suggestion (and this applies to everyone with an Android regardless of gender dating anyone else regardless of gender), do use your Android phone in front of your date because that weeds out psychos who would reject you over not owning their preferred product.
I’m 36, and a disabled veteran. I put that in my tinder profile, cause I know most women are going to hate that I’m not maximizing the selling of my life to capitalism.
I’ve had two chicks match with me just to tell me my profile is shit for including that - Whatevs if you’re gonna swerve me for chillin on a pension let’s get it out of the way instead of wasting my time until work comes up. 🤷
I just now replied to another comment remaking I had never heard of “curve” being used like this. And there are already variants of it? How long has this been a thing?
Idk man I’m ancient in internet years haha. As for “variants” I’d say it’s probably regional, but again hell if I know 😂
Yeah, adopting behaviour to keep something like that in my life doesn’t seem like doing myself a favour.
I accept your counter offer
It’s pretty much imposible to not use your phone these days
This is a feature of android, not a bug. If someone is that shallow and can’t consider the possible motivations of using a GASP different phone, they would be a really bad partner.
Exactly, if someone bases their dating on such a stupid reason, imagine what other stupid things they base their life around. Thanks, I’ll pass.
Thought you said AOSP for a hot second. Now there’s an acronym I haven’t seen in a good long time.
If my date can debate AOSP with me… I will feel very privileged indeed!
If a woman is that shallow and materialistic then the guy is dodging a bullet. Anyhow, it’s a weird thing to say since “android phone” could mean literally anything from a basic $100 smartphone all the way up to a $50,000 Vertu diamond and white alligator skin. i.e. it could mean the guy is sensible with his money or even more shallow and materialistic than the girl could ever dream to be.
Not to mention stupid and lacking in business sense.
Could mean that he enjoys a near complete lack of privacy, likes to use a samsung web browser, has his life assfucked by Google, likes shovelware, or wants a phone that only gets updates for 3 years. I’d be suspicious too.
Yeah… Or it could be the complete opposite of all that.
Android / AOSP comes in many flavours from Swiss cheese give your life away security to locked down more than any apple device could be. IOS only comes in 1 flavour.
Which flavor do you think your average muppet is using?
The same flavor as apple muppets. The only default option.
Huh?
-sent from degoogled lineage os
Lineage is not about providing a google free version of Android. It does not contain google apps, for licensing reasons, probably also to let the user choose. But it does not go further, all the other stuff like captive portal check, agps, dns etc still uses google servers. It’s not “degoogled” in any way. Love lineage btw but we need to be aware of what it is and isn’t.
Would graphene OS be the answer here then? I’ve been looking around for my new phone lately as I’m trying to do the same. Would it be possible to de-google lineage OS manually or is it just better to pick another OS? Sorry for the questions but I don’t really know where the FOSS android communities are yet so I don’t know where to look for the answers.
I just want to be able to access files on my media server without having to pay 10$ for an app.
LMAO iPhones have those problems but like 10x as much, just replace Google&Samsung with Apple. Imagine not being able to download or use anything that isn’t approved by big daddy Apple.
These men dodged a bullet.
Better advice: use an android phone to filter out the reactive dipshits.
Let’s face it: If they were that superficial, they wouldn’t have dated me to begin with.
Shit advice. If my date dismisses me because of the phone I use, they are not worth pursuing.
If you are that desperate to get laid that you start tippy-toeing, consider paying a whore. Better for your mental health.
Use the android phone as a filter.
100% this. If they’re judging you based on your fucking phone, then THEY are not worth pursuing
Men, do yourself a favour.
If a girl ghosts you because of the phone you use, she’s clearly too shallow to bother with, and it’s worth ghosting her back.
Girls, do yourself a favour.
If you’ve got a problem that a guy uses a 'droid, you may want to reconsider your priorities.
While I agree, one rarely knows the reason they were ghosted. So the fact that it could be your phone and not you can take the sting out.
Yeah, sometimes it’s just a bad vibe or something they might think is silly but they can’t ignore their instincts. So a woman may tell you it’s something like your phone or the restaurant was too cheap, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that’s true.
I’ve found there’s a big subset of people, myself included when I don’t watch for it, who can’t help but try to pick apart the reasoning behind “No” if you give them a full explanation.
Explaining your thought process on why you are declining gives them the tools to try to change your mind, to explain to you why your answer was wrong.
If you just want to wash your hands of situation, saying no with little to no explanation stops them from trying to salvage it, to convince you otherwise. I feel like giving a stupid bullshit explanation like “you have an android” may be the same idea.
Exactly this, the polite excuse vs the rational are different. Even when talking to friends you might use the excuse because you don’t want to go into details.
Yeah, this isn’t a thing for anyone worth dating.
Literally seems like a junior in high school kind of comment, honestly.
I’m 100% okay with being rejected for my Android phone. My dick doesn’t fit in women that shallow.
Sounds like it’s just gonna save me some time. If she’s gonna be that basic, I have better things to do.
the best move is to show your android phone in your profile pics so you don’t get trapped with someone so shallow
Use it right away and dodge a bullet. By the third date she will expect you to buy her $600 wheels for her mac.
Nah. I’m too old for this highschool nonsense.
Sounds like the guys didged a bullet to me.
