It is never acceptable (unless one has an ill family member or someone is going into labor) to speak on your cell phone on a date. Turn it off if you can or leave it silent. You can always check your messages when you go to the restroom, if it is so urgent. Never let the other person feel your phone is more important than the date. My daughter had an eye-opening experience, with a guy who took every call he got. The fellow was over 30 at the time, and it is clear why he is to this day still unmarried. He was VERY rude. No one is that important unless he is a doctor, that he MUST talk on the phone every time it rings. And that goes for the girls, as well. You’re on a date, BE on a date!
