    It might be your wife, but it might also be ladies clothing that is to blame. As guys we get nice big jean pockets to keep our phones in, ladies just get tiny useless pockets if they even exist, which is why the phone is in the jacket pocket instead, and way less secure than jeans because the opening is likely at the side, not the top.

    My dad used to keep his phone in his chest pocket on his shirt, and lost it in water twice. Once leaning over the toilet and it dropped in, the other leaning over a lake when he was fishing. RIP.

    Where you store your phone when not in use makes a big difference lol.

      You’re probably right. I stopped keeping anything in my pants pockets years ago and haven’t broken a phone or lost a wallet ever since.

      i remember back in school a lot of girls would keep their phones in their BACK pockets, which of course on women’s pants can fit slightly more than half of the phone. i wonder why they all had cracked screens…

      adding onto this is the modern insistence on phones being high-tech glass panes, and them sorta being a piece of jewelry so god forbid you put on a proper rubbery case that actually protects it.
