What is the longest you have gone without your iPhone?

My husband took my iPhone on a business trip for 3 days and I realized how much I really do depend on having it! Anyone else relate to what my struggle has been for what seemed like an eternity without my iPhone?

Uh... Like... 2 hours. Someone stole my iphone so I had to be without it until I got home to another iPhone that was sitting around doing nothing. It was bearable but I was incredibly bored (aside from being pissed at the fact it was stolen by some person while I wasn't looking)

My wife had to go without her 5s for like 3 days. All we had for her to use until we could get to an  store was a 3GS. She was not happy.

30 min bc I left the house to pick up a prescription and left the phone on the counter. If it was for longer than that, I would turn around and get it. I'm pathetic, I know.

Every once in a while I accidentally leave it at home. I never let it go more than a few hours though.

Since I own 5 of them I dropped one on the ground one time this was my iPhone 4. The phone layed in the sun for at least 3 hours. Took the phone inside cooled the phone down and the while was fine. Although I also had my iPhone 4s with me as well.

oh I had left my iPhone on a shelf at GoodWill at one time. Once I discovered I did not have the phone in like less than a second I headed back to that shelf and there was the phone. Lucky then.

I once drove away without my iPhone. I didn't get more than 100 feet down the road before I turned around to go back for it. I believe that a little part of my soul died that day.

15 minutes, when I went down the hall to use the copier and my phone was charging; it's such a horrid feeling and pathetic!
