    My live in girlfriend of 4 years has been pretty upset with me this past weekend as I have spent say 10 hours with Storm and only 10 minutes with her.

    And to make matters worse, she was out of town for a few days on business last week and returned Friday afternoon (same time Storm and I finally met) and she expected me to "give her lots of attention" however that wasn't the case. She said "I've been waiting 4 days to see you again and this is the attention I get when I return?" My response was "I'm sorry sweetie but I've been waiting 6 months for Storm".

    Sunday evening she said (we are off together on weekends) "I really feel like I am being cheated on". I said "At least I'm not cheating on you with a girl. Would you rather I cheat on you with a girl or a phone?" She said "NEITHER" I said "If you had to choose one...?" She said NEITHER!!!" And then she said " if you don't put that thing away for the REST of the night, you will not get laid for the REST of 2008". Needless to say, I got up off the couch, walked to the bedroom, and "docked" Storm. As I was walking out of the bedroom, I glanced back over my shoulder at Storm and noticed a "wink"..... I got excited and did a double take but realized that it was only the minute hand changing on flip clock. I quietly walked back to the sofa and sat down as we continued to watch the finale of "True Blood" (awesome show). She then slowly turned her head towards me, winked (the real wink this time) and said "That's what I thought!!"

    Anyone else's significant other ticked off?. Story?

    BTW, I'm a loyal BB user as this is my 5th one over the years. I have to say that I'm very satified. However, if I wasn't fully aware of all the BB functions, I can see where people would be aggrovated initally. Takes some getting use to but is defintely a "keeper".

    Ha, my girlfriend said something along the lines of "So, am I third on the list now?" She's always thought she comes after work (which is more than kinda true, haha) and now she thinks she's going to be coming in after the Storm. Probably not, but we shall see.

    My g/f never actually said it. But there was a sigh or two when she caught me on here in the days leading up to the Storms release.

    And a couple of glances here and there after I got it.

    Hahah. That's great. But who says you can't play with the Storm while getting laid? Just make sure to turn the brightness down.

    Same here, except worse because I've never had a sweet phone before the storm. I'm going crazy. Fortunately my girl has been addicted to Mario Galaxy on the Wii lately, so it's not nearly as bad as it could be

    My boyfriend was pretty angry about the storm, but not because of the time I devoted to it. He was just angry that I got another phone. I also have a G1 and an iPhone 3g, so he was pissy that I brought yet another one home. He got over it though.

    My wife knows how I am, and I know how I am... Whenever I get a new gadget I try to buy her something to occupy her time as well. I've found that a couple hours at the salon/masseuse normally does the trick...

    Haven't gotten the storm yet, but I've already gotten the Gift Cert for an all-day treatment for whatever weekend it decides to come in!!!

    My girlfriend has been pretty accepting of my new Storm, but I also gave her my old BB Curve so maybe thats why. So my BB hasn't caused me to break up, howver, one of the reasons my xwife left was due to a video game. I am not going to mention which one becuase I would not wish to bring any negative attention to such a game
