Idk, if I’m being honest, almost every relationship I’ve been in with any gender has always wound up at some level of manipulation and loss of autonomy. I realize it doesn’t have to but it truly is sad
Experientially, sending the whole party to their phones is a buzz kill and I’d reckon likely causes delays in ordering and consensus as people get distracted. Conversely, some places let you pay the check on mobile which is choice as fuck.
