Search Results: the point of giving up

I basically never give my number. My boss has it my drs office has it the vet has it the admissions office has it.. For orders and auditions I use email. Overall if I could I would rely on email, but sometimes information has to be exchanged quickly, so I can’t. But I really almost never use it casually. I’m so used to this that the idea of doing so makes me very uncomfortable to the point I just don’t.

It isn’t really that I think any individual will do something. It’s just once you start texting and phoning your number is on their phone and peoples phones end up in places they don’t expect..

I wouid really like to be shoe to tall casually on the phone. My hands are so often busy or I’m moving around, it would be so much rarer to “ talk” bit I’ve heard so many horror stories of misplaced private info from phones.

im wondering what can actually happen if someone managed to hack my phone— forget the fact they most likely wouldn’t or wouldn’t care to bc I’m nobody.. but what IF... what are the risks. And has it happened to anyone here?

Thank you 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌸

I've been working on a theory here.

I've been watching relationship reality stuff on TV for years. My poor husband has been subjected to it, being in the same room. He's pretty good at blocking external stimuli out, but ya know, some definitely goes in, whether he likes it or not. These people used to quite often infuriate him. I would be talking at the TV sometimes, and he would be silent, brooding, shaking his head. But eventually, we got to a point where we both watch together, and instead of him being silent, he started making lots of interesting comments and giving his opinions about what was going on - yay, much more fun for me. (These people are on TV for a reason - they're outrageous sometimes, which can be very entertaining. But actually a lot of it is just regular human stories, quite common things many people go through.) Anyway, I noticed a pattern, where he would agree with the woman and criticize the man. Finally, recently, we got to the bottom of this. (Well, I gave my theory and he agreed, "yes, that's it!") Women talk way more. 20,000 wpd vs. 7000. More words means more you have to absorb. And with him only partially listening, he ended up missing many of the details of what the women say, not the men who speak less. So he was basing his conclusions of what's wrong in their relationship, etc. on not all the info. But I saw it as him aligning with the women more, being more sympathetic to them, when often times, as fault is gender-random, they did not deserve all the sympathy. Also, we probably don't have to put as much effort into understanding our own kind. We all know our own sex more. We're on the inside already.
It's been interesting. And now he's figured out how to laugh at them, treat it more as a distant sociological study, or as entertainment, nothing to get worked up about. (And weed and vodka sure helps make things seem funnier.)

But anyway, got me thinking, do you defend one gender more than the other?
