I have done it a few times. Luckily nothing to cause me embarrassment. I now double check before sending out a text or responding.

I never have sent one, but I once received one!

 

 

 

Just in the past few weeks I read a politician and a celebrity both did this. Of course they both made the news!  Smiley Wink

Re: Text Sent to Wrong Persom

Yep!  Several years ago I was visiting my brother & he was dating (if that is what you want to call it) a woman who was  less than ideal for him.  I sent a text to my husband complaining about her, only to find out I sent it to my brother!  Woops!  He actually wasn't too upset.  She got on his nerves, too.

I have but nothing bad.

 

But it sometimes is a good thing. Reminds me of that grandma who was inviting her grandson to Thanksgiving and sent it to a stranger, he accepted the invitation and has been officially invited every year. I believe now on their 7th Thanksgiving.

ALWAYS double check who you’re texting before you hit “send”……I learned the hard way. It wasn’t anything insulting, but it was very personal stuff that was meant for the person I THOUGHT I was texting. 😩😩😩

Re: Text Sent to Wrong Persom

When DD got her phone evidently the person who had the number before her was a fun guy.  She used to get texts for what seemd to be "orders" and also was invited over for poker parties on the regular.  I texted one gal back to let her know and she was so nice and apologetic and got the word around evidently because she stopped getting the texts.  I assume the reason that number became available is because he was doing a stint in county jail.

Re: Text Sent to Wrong Persom

I've done it a few times.  One was legal info meant for someone else and I accidentally sent it to the wrong person. I check twice now.

I have a funny one and a bad one.  I was wearing some ugly shoes that I got for a volunteer job.  I was wearing them and sent a pic to a friend.  I somehow also sent it to the police non-emergency number. 

 

A different one - a “friend” sent me a text meant for someone else that was gossiping about me. It wasn’t kind.
