Why hello there Lexers. A couple of friends of mine and I came up with a theory over afternoon beer the other day. You can tell the kind of person you want based on your cell phone preferences.

Think about it. If you’re looking for an all business all the time corporate type, you most likely have a black berry. If you’re into someone who’s more fun, laid back but could crack on you… iPhone anyone? If your significant other of choice is high tech, trendy and forward thinking… Droid for you. I personally favor people who are low maintenance, serve their purpose but are little fuss. I have an LG slider.

The way you treat your phone can also tell you how you’re going to treat the other that you eventually settle on. Think about the friends you know who are always losing their phones, moving on and going to the next. When was the last long term relationship they were in? What about those who put their phone through stressful abuse? I’m not saying they’d make bad lovers, but I will say watch the right hook if their phone found its way smashed into a wall once.

It’s pretty uncanny, and I’m sure there is some research out there to prove it, but purely from some keen observation (and the help of someone taking an anthro class that is interested in this sort of thing), we’ve figured it out. So go Lexers. Check out the array of phone options, make your pick and stick with the one that fits with you. With that said, I’m not sure what it says about you if you still have a landline. Maybe you’re looking for a homebody… or a farmer.
