I don't have social media. I have an iPhone. This happens to me too. This seems to happen when I am talking about something, and I type two to three letters into a google search and the first suggestion is crazy on point. I swear the phone is listening.


I basically can't surprise my wife with any gifts because when I shop for something, all suggested ads are on the product. There has been many examples of women who knew their partner was going to propose.


I was looking at pictures that had reoccurring themes and those items in the pictures showed up in ads. Ex: Imagine searching for cars and just happen to get classic cars in the search and just happened to click on classic cars that had dice hanging from the rear view mirror then you get ads for car dice.
