iTunes is music so I’m not sure what he is talking about there.

If one FaceTime went to his daughters phone then every phone call, text and FaceTime would but I’ve just seen your second update.. I would block him now.

yeah there’s no way you’d let your kid access your messages and calls, let alone if you were on the prowl for a new woman, who wants their child seeing those interactions?! Bizarre

Yeah I agree with the others.. @Bagpuss don’t give up hope - just get rid of him! Some men are complete time wasters and he is one of them xx

I'm going to leave it now, I sent him a message just after 10 saying about facetime later, the app is saying he was on line 25 mins ago so he's read my message and not replied...another time wasting waste of time!
Take the power into your own hands and unmatch him or block him to put a dent in his ego, because if you don’t he’ll still feel in control. Agree with above, he’s one of those who think the bare minimum is high maintenance - you deserve better!

The only way that would work is if every Apple device in his household is connected to his accounts eg if I get a call on my phone, my iPad will ring too. But I don’t know anyone who’d set their children’s phones up with their own Apple ID unless they’re unbelievably not tech savvy.

And even if it was true, one bad/weird experience should have made him change those settings, not judge other women by one woman’s behaviour. So if he hasn’t safeguarded his children after that, there’s something seriously wrong. Plus, if it was true, surely he’d have known his kids routinely answered calls meant for him

I’m not sure I would believe anything he’s told you at this point. None of it makes any sense.

When my child was younger it was connected to my Apple ID but it did not get all my messages and FaceTimes just allowed my child to download games etc
 
Do you think meeting the old fashioned way will make a comeback as we all get sick of the apps? I live in hope I'll bump into some hottie in Sainsburys

It's true, and I am too. Can't even watch a video or some TV without my phone open. I fucking hate it, but I am too addicted to the dopamine.
Me too.. I was thinking about it earlier actually. I’d love to detox from it but everyone is as bad

Evening all, I’ve been watching and reading this thread for a while now but never posted before. So sorry for the long story.
Last March I left my 13 year marriage, nothing had happened I was unhappy. I had a tough year with that (guilt etc), as well as a fling with a best friend that has completely messed with my head and left me in a worse state than the end of my marriage. The friendship is now over.
I’ve been on the apps on and off for about 9 months, oh my goodness they are awful. I matched and had a date with one guy at Christmas time, he was lovely but looked nothing like his photos and not in a good way, they were at least 6 years old. We got on really well but he couldn’t kiss to save his life and that gave me the ick. He’s recently messaged me after 6 months of silence asking if I wanted to come round for a bottle of wine because we have unfinished business. Jesus! I politely turned him down. I then about 2 months ago matched with another guy, chat started great and we swapped numbers. Then the chat died, would take him 12 hours to reply, then a week of silence, chat again but with huge gaps between them. Didn’t speak for a month and then he messaged out the blue, but again dead chat and hours between messages. Sunday I matched with a guy I’d seen on hinge a few times but never liked anything, I don’t know what made me do it but I liked a comment on his profile. He messaged me and we’ve had good flowing chat for 2 days, really enjoyed the chat. I’ve today found out that he’s also into guys, but has never had sex with a guy. Now I have no issue with anyones sexuality at all, good for him. But it’s not what I want in a potential partner. He’s been very honest with me by opening up so soon but Ive told him I don’t know what to do with that information, and he’s asked me what I mean.
I’m now thinking I just tell him that I have no issue with it but it’s not what I want in a potential so partner. We haven’t swapped numbers yet but I just feel bad. I’ve been told I don’t owe him anything as it’s so soon after starting chatting, but that’s just how I am. I don’t think I’m cut out for these apps and wish it was easier to meet people the old fashioned way
