I would be curious. 🤔 I would ask if they would like to reschedule the date to a more appropriate time. If they continued, I would excused myself politely from the date. I really dislike phones, which is why I only have a landline.
I'd get my half of the check and leave (sorry but if you don't have the courtesy to actually try and interact with me your sure as hell not going to get free food out of me). Needless to say their would not be a second one.
Depends on how long we were dating. If a new person it would be the last date and someone I had been dating for a while I would take the phone and drop it into their beverage then I would either resolve it for the future or I would move o.
I've gone on my phone and ordered myself an uber. Told him to call me when he had some free time and excused myself. It's just rude, especially when you can see it's only mindless scrolling.
I'd be a little annoyed, but I'd ask them if there was something wrong or something important going on. If she doesn't have a good reason, and it's the first date then I might just dump her depending on how bad it gets. Honestly, it shows that you don't really have interest in "us" and I'd rather do it now than later.
Tell them how I feel and be upset and hurt due to that's an our time not a social time. I've actually been through this. It's actually improved mine and my fiance relationship. In beginning she was always on the phone no matter what we was doing dates dinner talking s pending time with our child etc. Communication is key to fixing things and coming to compromise
I'd double check that they aren't really nervous and using it as a coping mechanism, and then ask them if not, suggest we should leave as it's not natural.
Be my last date.. its a clear sign of incompatibility for me. If its work, I still think they should've handled their dealings and time more efficiently.
I'd probably wonder if this was a one-off thing or indicative of how women behave in the new digital age where our phones have become such an integral part of our existence that we always need to be "in contact" with someone or something digital.
If it is the first date it would be the last last date after all you are on the date to get to know each other, if all that I saw was the top of the others head for 75% the first hour I'd leave with no explanation.
I'd say have fun with your phone date and get up and walked out. Any one who thank's your phone is more important then the date their on isn't worth being with. And stick them with the tap at the restraint.
Go on my phone, say nothing, get through the date, forget her and move on. I think being on your phone while interacting with someone in person is rude even if it isn't in a dating scene.
She is either very shy/nervous, or she isn't interested. If I know them, I'd try to talk about something they like to talk about to make it easier for them. If they stay on their phone, I'd leave.
I would try to know if she is in the middle of something urgent. Then i would ask if that urgent thing takes more than 20 minutes. If so, i would discuss and reschedule this date.

incompatibility is an odd word for it
No it isn't.
its a womens magazine word.
Damn, Iād definitely just leave immediately. Thatās so rude... like whatās the whole point of going on the date in the first place😒
A first date? I would leave with the comment āSorry, obviously Iām boring you. Maybe the next guy will be more interesting.ā

Unless it was an emergency, I probably wouldn't date them again
Because it communicates a lack of respect for me, my reaction would be subdued and their chances at a 2nd date would be slim to none.

I would stand up and tell them by for evidently what or who ever their talking to is more important then I am to them so by , by to them

I would not meet him again..
Its just a full on turn off! Stupid technology is corruption social situations

Then i would ask if that urgent thing takes more than 20 minutes.
If so, i would discuss and reschedule this date.
