I always try to remember to have my cellphone charged and ready to go when I leave the house. But, I have left and forgot to put it back into my purse and then needed it only to realize what I did. How about you, do you always carry your cellphone or have you forgotten it at home?

I do not have that problem, because i do not own a cell phone. We only have a house phone. When i go out somewhere to do something the last thing that i want to do is talk on the phone. I guess that i am old fashioned but i do not see how so many people are chained to their phone.

I was like you for a long time. I didn't get a cell phone until last year and I really don't use it alot. I just do the pre-paid card so don't have a huge cost. I'm just gone from home more(last year anyway)now and the kids would be home or in school and I thought it would be better if they could reach me.

be frankly, i seldom forgot it at home. because when i go to work, i only take three things, my cellphone, the keys, and an umbrella.
if it was left at home, that was because i didnt want to take it out. i did sometimes do it, cause wanted to be alone to calm down then.

I intend to take the cell phone with me, but like you sometimes I forget. Try to just keep it in my purse so it is not forgotten. What usually happens here is that I will put my phone to charge and then forget to unplug it in the morning and put back in my purse. It is not usually a big problem, my kids have my work phone # also.

I have forgotten it before and feel completely helpless. I am always worried that I will have a flat tire or car trouble and be on the side of the road and cant call for help.

Forgotten? Sometimes. To intentionally leave it in house? never. Almost part of my earnings and businesses are coming through online and calls. Therefore it is very important to have my cellphones with me all the time.
Plus, you'll never know what you're missing when leaving your cellphones, right?

I sometimes do that when I will only be out just for a while, to the groceries store, to restaurant just to take away. But I always think about my cellphone when it is not with me. Thinking what if somebody call me and it is important or anything.
I try now to always bring it wherever I go, sometimes when I go to the toilet I even bring it with me.

Hi there. When I leave the house I always have my mobile phone with me. I think the main reason is that if there is an emergency and I need to be reached or I need to get hold of someone, I can. It has not happened so far, but you never know!
