I totally understand where you are coming from and could not agree more. Having said that, unfortunately I seem to be pretty alone with this opinion in my female friend Group. I think at the bottom of this may be a higher Need for communication or in some cases, insecurity. In most cases, I think that is part of what they imagine a relationship or Dating should be like, that you are somehow "supposed" to be in touch with each other all the time because you are intimate with someone, rather than examining that concept. May also be a personality Preference. I would suggest you to suss out those Girls early on in the Dating process by asking them how often they communicate with other People in their life via texting, calling etc. That should give you a better idea of whether you're likely to get along.
In General, I would strongly suggest looking for a Girl who has strong interests in her Hobbies, whatever they are - that way, she would hopefully not have enough time to be glued to her phone 24/7. Good luck!
I understand how u feel. I dont mind texting but I hate snapchat. I also would like REAL dates to make a comeback lol
Instead of "U wanna come over & chill?" when u guys barely know each other and haven't been on any dates😞
But I think the girl ur looking for is definitely out there. Some girls are still... I guess u can say old fashion. Plus if a girl really likes u then the fact that ur not into all that snapchat stuff won't be a dealbreaker. You can keep her interested by being your self & if she's the right one for u then u guys will
work out just fine.
Honestly, communication in general for me is key. I don't care how we achieve the communication, but I need it a daily or bi-daily basis. Preferably daily, though, which makes the smart phone situation easier. Because people carry those around with them.
Could you imagine a cluster of people walking around with spin-dial phones, trialing wires behind them? God, what a mess it'd be to untangle everyone.
I am not interested in technological details of how I got the date but yeah I am no fan of Snapchat and some other ways of communicating.
You're not completely doomed. There are girls that dig an old school phone call! :)

Omg! Right? Spin phone looks cool😎
It's not a dealbreaker for me if we have alternatives for communications.
You keep her interested by being active.
Unless she is an introvert. She might not be up for all the outdoor activities but you never know.😎❤
Wow if someone starts judging you because you hate snap chatting or texting then there's something wrong with them.
If the girl really likes you then it shouldn't matter. I know I wouldn't care. I'm not huge on snap chatting or texting either
Uhm.. No.
I don't have snap chat either and I'd rather talk on the phone or in person than text.
I can only text people that are very close to me.
There are plenty of girls who aren't into texting and snapchatting 24/7.
No if she has all that then she has a number as well
Yeah it would be a deal breaker to never ever get a text but I don't need to be in constant communication
I am so thankful guys like you are sill around! Take her out places, explain your distaste to her and maybe she even agrees and will like you more for your views on a good relationship. Get her the little things even if you don't communicate all day on the tech, have late night calls though.. They're super sweet!
I hate social media , fb, Twitter snapchat etc... I'm extremely old fashioned when it comes to relationships (however I very rarely date due to how society is now)
Not at all I'm the same.
SAME DUDE. Where are the guys like you?
Go out. Do group dates
