Fear of having your phone off.

http://www.thisislondon.co.uk/news/article-23468919-details/Nomophobia+is+the+fear+of+being+out+of+mobile+phone+contact+-+and+it's+the+plague+of+our+247+age/article.do

Seriously?
 
yeah that makes some sense, although crazy. people like businessmen get too addicted to their blackberrys and what not and are constantly worried about wahts going on in the business and stuff. my dad is kinda like that. but having your phone off causes more stresss.
 
i can understand stress if you miss place it. i get worried that i lost it or someone stole it immediately and that can get me really stressed
 
Well that's one thing. Getting stressed out because you're not constantly connected is another.

I don't know, maybe it's just me but there are few things that bother me more than people that can't stop texting. I was getting coffee with this girl a few months ago and I had to just get up and walk out because she couldn't stop texting long enough to hold a decent conversation. It's just so goddamn annoying.
 
i have friends that live by theire phones

really i dont mind if mine is off mines been dead for a week and im not too worried
 
I used to get so uncomfortable when I forgot my cell phone somewhere. Mostly because forgetting my phone GUARANTEED my ex girlfriend would call and she'd be angry that I didn't answer her because I was avoiding her or something.
 
this is my uncle hahaha. he is VP of us airways, and if he doesn't have his blackberry 24/7 he misses basically everything...
 
If I leave my phone at home, i'll drive anywhere under about 20km to go back and get it.
 
Same. I drive 25 miles to school everyday and if i forget it at home i will turn around and get it no matter how far i am. Even if it makes me late.
 
i get pissed at my phone and chuck it at the ground before school then forget about it till the end of the day. me and my phone dont get along to well
