Women love their mobile phone more than their boyfriend – surprised?

It appears that the modern woman is now more in love and more reliant on their mobile phone than they are their boyfriend. But the man in their life does rank higher than their laptop and iPod. So that’s something.
According to The Daily Mail, online pawnbroker Borro recently surveyed 4,000 women about what they’d be willing to pawn to raise much-needed cash.
Four in 10 of the respondents said they’d be “devastated” if they lost their phone, more than the number who’d be gutted to lose either their boyfriend or best friend. Can this possibly be true? Do women really hold their mobile phone more dear to their heart than their current squeeze? Women only place Mother and Photographs above their cellphone.
Borro CEO Paul Aitken commented:
The list certainly threw up some surprises with boyfriends featuring below photos and mobile phones. It’s understandable why mums come out top though – they are there to lend an ear, offer support and a best friend to many girls. Photos hold fun and significant memories which could be devastating to lose and a mobile phone keeps women connected and it’s always by their side.
I’m now going to have to do what every male in a relationship is going to – ask my girlfriend whether she loves her phone more than she loves me. Or maybe I shouldn’t, as the answer may not be very appetizing to hear.
