Ladies,
Be honest, do you every you ever pretend to use your cell phone, just to show disinterest?
Yes the mobile phone is a marvelous device, but sadly some people just don't take the hint.
And yes, I also freely admit that I have given people the wrong telephone number on purpose so they can never call me.
No--never done it. I prefer to just make eye contact w/ the individual and shake my head "no" and if they still don't get the hint and ask for my number I say no.
No, not to show disinterest, but I've actually called someone for no other reason than being in a potentially dangerous neighborhood and wanting to be able to tell a friend to send help or call the police if I got into trouble, or ward it off by being on the phone with someone.
Not as much as I used to, but when I do its usually a customer who doesn't get the hint.

Not usually. I much prefer to talk face to face then talk on my phone.
I mostly use my cell phone for games that I play.

Yep. I've also pretended to read books and magazines and pretended to listen to music. Once I even pretended that I couldn't hear the guy until he gave up.
Yes. To escape if I don't have connection with the guy.
I could show you INCREDIBLE things...
I appreciate everyone's honesty. I haven't been give the cell phone brush off directly, just I have observed when I work at the gym, a lot of women seem to
reach for the cell phone just as a guy walks by.
I'm (obviously) a middle age guy, no one is checking me out. I don't exactly need to have my cell phone handy to suddenly pretend to text someone.
I shouldn't say "no one". The other day I got on the rowing machine, pretty soon a woman who is about five years old than me, starts using
the machine next to me. She starts chatting me up. For a few minutes I thought she was just the talkative type, then
it dawned on me. she was interested in me. Very odd feeling when the shoe is on the foot.
I kinda like it . . would have like it more is she was five years younger and without so much grey hair.
