How does one accidentally send a text the 'wrong' person?
I was just wondering what has to happen for someone to accidentally send a text to a person that they didnt intend to send that text to. I mean, I'm sure its going to depend on the phone and the exact set-up/interface/how you actually send a text on that particular phone. The reason I ask is that this girl keeps sending me texts that 'supposedly' were meant for someone else, and I dont know what to make of it.
So, could you accidentally text the wrong person if you were reading a text in your inbox and then replied to that somehow thinking you were replying to another, or
I guess, if you just clicked the wrong person's name accidentally/subconsciously when you were selecting the recipient?

I have done that before. I entered in the wrong phone number or sent a message to their old phone number that someone else is using since they got a new number. I was like "Oops too late".

I have a BlackBerry. It rarely happens to me, but it does happen.
Especially when I'm driving and texting at the same time. Some of my friends have similar names so I tend to type the wrong name.

It could very well be that it's simply her attempt to have contact with you. It creates a reason for you to text her back, and that's just what she wants you to do.

It can happen.
Jon why are you texting while driving? one day you could really regret it if you cause an accident. Ive done it and it is a VERY stupid thing to do. Very distracting.
