You feel the person is not completely into a conversation and with more attention. Phubbing is defined as the act of snubbing someone in a social setting by looking at the phone instead of paying attention. This is what is called Phubbing.How Phubbing influences peopleI have been through this, and it went so deep that I started disconnecting from everyone around me.

Also, you have concentrated on the phone so much that you get totally cut off from the real world.How to stop PhubbingIt was not really easy to concentrate on something else or jump into a conversation right after I had kept my phone down. Finally, I decided to change and lay down some rules, and here I am sharing with you.No Phone Zone at HomeWhile taking it completely off wasnt a solution. So we came up with no phone zones. I kept down my phone for next 3 hours after I reached home. The phone was kept in another room and was only to be attended when an important call came inNo Phone Zone with FriendsThis was even tougher, and the only way out was to tum down the ringer completely. Keep the phone in the pocket, and if you feel calls are very important, you can always connect with a Bluetooth earphone, and attend them. I always made sure that when friends meet, everyone kept our phones away. It wasnt really easy I had to fight my sense of expectation of getting a message.Now, I have realized that things were improving after I started following the rules. My concentration was better, and I was communicating well with my family and friends.
