Text messages

I once tried to propose to a girl I was dating with a text message but accidentally sent it to the wrong girl, I’m now happily married to the wrong girl

texting is so scary!! I text a lot dont get me wrong but so many mistakes can happen through texting that wouldnt happen otherwise…

If I had seen a photo first I wouldn’t have ever gone out with the 1st girl in the first place, what would have happened is I would have just gone out with the 2nd girl and then accidently sent the text to the 1st.

OneOfMany, was that you who sent me that text today?

Yes. The policy I endose is to never send anything by text unless you are comfortable with the whole world reading it.

I just recently accidentally texted my teacher “What’s for dinner” because Mom is right above Mrs. A

Quite mortifying.

oh ya been there done that. i have 2 contacts i text-one is ‘sara’ and the other is ‘sari’. i was telling sari about something funny sara did but chose the wrong contact! boy did sara bug me about that mistake! after that i changed sari’s name in my phone to something else so i wouldnt make the same mistake again

OMG- that totally happened to me!

So basically my friends father was really sick and she had asked me to send out his name to all my contacts via text. So i sent out like 10@ a time to literally all my contacts- like people i would never text; my friends mother; my moms friends and so on.

all of a sudden i get a text from a close friend of mine

“RedNails- I think you sent me the wrong text”

i wrote back

“OMG- What did i send you??”

she fwds me a msg

“hi ma, i just wanted to tell you i broke up with so-and-so…i feel bad cuz he didnt see it coming, but i know i did the right thing…..(and A LOT more personal stuff)….”

i was freaking out- somehow a msg i had sent mooonths before somehow saved and sent to her…and now to all of the pple i sent the ‘tehillim’ text to!

i literally felt like i was gonna _!@#$%^&&!! pass out!!

i sent out a retrieval txt; saying some bogus stuff that s/o go a hold of my phone yadda yadda yadda..

through some miracle of my doing a chessed it was ONLY sent to her…

so now; when i send out a mass text i am super careful!!

The botch that I often get into is picking the wrong number of the contact. This results in some text-to-landline messages. Nothing terrible.

ooh, rednails those are realllly bad stories. Hope you recovered from your embarrassment :). Those stories are ones that cld be used to teach lessons abt dangers of texting!

a good number of rabbanim say txting is assur

I had no idea that my sending a text to Eeees asking her to pick up extra milk was a sin*.

I guess that’s what I get for being a dispecable, horrible, rotten person — I sin and sin and sin even when I didn’t intend to.

* I texted her (as opposed to calling her) because she was probably seeing clients at the time and I didn’t want to interrupt her by actually calling.

Actually, it wasn’t Chalav Stam. We’re not makpid on CY, but, on the other hand, if it’s available, we get it.

But I know that that doesn’t really change the depravity of my acts at all. I’m still a horrendous human being who sins and for whom there is no hope of salvation whatsoever.

and to be careful not to get addicted to texting, and the need for an immediate response or access to others all the time
