I am not sure why people think that they cell phone is a tracking device, but its not.
Both men and women do this, but, women seem to use in in this fashion far more then men.
Calling someone you care about 10- 20 times a day is quite silly and annoying.
Even, if it just a friend who you met online and decided that you would give them a chance by giving them your number.
Calling you love or care about 10-20 times a day will not help your relationship and it will not stop them from cheating on you either. Though it actually give them a reason too after a while.

I believe cell phones are for emergencies, and when I am unfortunate enough to have one in my possession, I leave it off, unless the care breaks down, we need to see if someone is home, or some vital instructions have been realized to not be as clear as we thought previously, or etc.
I hate them in theaters, I hate them in bars, I hate them at places of work, and I hate them in cars. They are great when you need them, but, there seem to be millions of people who have gotten confused as to what need is, or something.
On the plus side, without them, there would be less towers, and the cell phones wouldn't be worth much. On the negative side, without them, there would be less cell phones!

I'm totally with you and HH on this one. Mobile phones have become such an intrinsic part of some people's lives these days they feel bereft without them. There seems to be such a need for 'instant communication'. Before mobiles if someone wasn't home we'd call them later. My mobile phone is for my convenience, not others. I find it handy if I'm going on a long journey and as HH pointed out, it's security if the car breaks down, but when I'm home, I switch it off, they can get me on the landline. When I'm out I only turn it on if I know someone needs to get hold of me, otherwise I wait until I need to use it.
As for the constant calling by a would-be lover, well it really doesn't make them look good does it? Whatever happened to "how long should I leave it to call him if I don't hear from him?". That amount of calls a day is excessive, tantamount to stalking in my book. I would be extremely concerned if that ever happened to me. The worse thing I ever did was allow everyone to have my mobile number when I ran a women's support group. I was kept busy all weekend sometimes answering agony aunt style questions sent by text. Eventually I had to ask people not to contact me until after 8pm in the week and if they had anything they wanted to ask me in depth to email me. I needed to leave the phone on in case anyone else answered the ad for the group. I'm glad I don't have to leave it on anymore, I enjoy my privacy.
Sorry to go on, I have verbal diahorea today ... perhaps I should call you?

I have one so I can take pics of hot chicks and sell them to profile fakers.
I don't talk on it much though, maybe two or three times a day.
If y'all need some good pics, I gottem for cheap. I also have tutorials on how to sufficiently deceive folks online, mine are much better than the ones the people here have been using. If you're a hot lady, I'll give the tutorial in person, and take your pic for free.

I'm so glad that someone else has this opinion other than me!
If I meet someone that I'm interested in, and we share phone numbers, I really don't want to get 20 calls every hour! It's nice to receive a call every once in a while to say you're thinking about them, or to say you hope they are having a good day...but 2 or 3 calls a day is plenty. I've broken off relationships because of this. I consider it as jealousy, possessiveness and a sign of a control freak, or someone that can't live their life without someone controlling them. In either case, it doesn't make for a healthy relationship, and is anoying to no end.

I know what you are getting at but what if you just happen to meet some psychotic and you don't know it? Check the link to see what I am talking about..yes unfortunately you can use them as a tracking device!
