Awkward Texts

So my MIL has been adamant that we provide a hospitality suite the Friday night before the wedding. So that after the rehearsal dinner people can have a place to 'hang out.' We had told her that while we didn't think this was necessary, if she wanted it she was more than welcome to figure something out.

So anyways, my FI just sent me this text:

"The hotel does not have a hospitality room so we will use ours and Curtis's (his bro) room with food and drink in it. I asked for them to be side by side along with the rest of the family"


Cue my head exploding. I was seriously like EXCUSE ME! no no no no no, we are not opening up our room the night before the wedding. and no no no no no we are not having our hotel room adjoining your brother and your parents! seriously WTF!

I got totally worked up.

And then the 'part 2' of his text came through that said 'That text was from my mom, I just copy pasted it to you'



Any body else have some good misconstrued text stories??

Re: Awkward Texts

  • H has gotten some very strange texts from me, I'll admit. 

    I don't know if you were around for the "balls on bike seats" discussion a few months back but there was an entire discussion in a thread here about what happens to a guy's balls when he rides a bike. We were so curious. So I decided to go straight to the source and find out. 

    H randomly got a text from me out of the blue that was something like "Hey what do you do with your balls when you ride a bike? Do they dangle, get squished, what?" 

    Of course  I didn't explain why I was asking or anything. There was no time for that; I needed to know immediately. 

    Ha! Yes I was around for that conversation, and I most definitely questioned FI about it when I got home as well!

    Haha!!  I totally asked DH the same thing.  He's used to my weird questions about all boy related things now.

    My sister's car reads her texts to her, so I verbally abuse her and swear at her via text when I know she's in the car. It's funny. I knew she was going to lunch one day so I texted her with something like "eat shit you fucking whorebag". Her boss was in the car with her.

    lol! I did that with my dad one time, I texted him and realized the reply came from my bro. He said dads texts were going through Bluetooth so I started making funny comments about everyone in the car since the others didn't know I knew it was out loud. Didn't call him a who're at though hehe
  • Oh I got pranked via text a few years back. It was actually kind of awful. 

    My friend's older brother and his wife were expecting a baby, and they hired me to paint a mural on the wall of the nursery. They were the nicest people I'd ever met and I loved working for them. 

    And then one day I texted them about what time I should come over that night, and the husband replied with something raunchy. I don't remember what it was. I think it was something like he'd been dreaming about me? And I had no idea what to say. I was thinking "WTF?! That's so inappropriate! I can never go to their house again! This is so fucking awkward!" 

    30 seconds later I get another text that says "haha just kidding, this is [little brother, my friend. Not husband]." Jerk. 

    That may have been the most awkward text of my life.

    Sent this to DH once after a tiff.

    I need to ask you something and I need you to be totally honest with me, it might be awkward with us after this but I have to know how you feel, I have kept this in for awhile and it's about time I was straight up and just confront you about it, I hope this doesn't ruin the relationship we already have, I just need to know and I can't see any other way to get over this, it just doesn't seem fair on me if I don't get an answer, I want you to tell me truthfully, no matter what it is, I just want your honest opinion... Do you know the muffin man?

    You know when you are going to pay for someone else you say "it's on us"? Well I sent a text to DH about going out to dinner and I asked "does your dad want to come on us?" He wrote back "I FUCKING HOPE NOT". I died.

    I am laughing so hard right now. And I'm sure all my coworkers now probably are questioning my sanity because I'm the person laughing in her office by herself. Thank you for that laugh - I really needed it :-)
  • My best friends husbands name is one letter different than mine. She once accidentally sent me a 'selfie' that was intended for him....


    Lol my friend sent me a dirty text intended for her boyfriend. It was not a photo, though so it wasn't that bad. I just replied "Uh I don't think this was meant for me." And then she kept apologizing and I was like "Let's stop talking about it." Haha. I can't remember what it said but it really wasn't that bad. And thanks to that, if I send H a dirty text I check that it's going to him like 10 times before I hit send.

    same here! I put his picture in his contact so I type the first 2 letters of his name then it's easy to click on the giant picture of a bearded man to ensure it's him lol

    about a year and a half ago I was on PTO for the day and my boss had texted and said hope I was having a good day, etc.  I was also texting with bf (at the time, now H) and we were going to meet up and I texted "just gotta pee and then I'll be there".  Went to new boss not H, oops

    Haha! I've had to triple check my texts when I am texting something 'wedding dress' related because I am so paranoid about accidentally sending it to him. His mum had asked for a picture of the dress because she wanted to show my FI's grandma it as she won't be able to attend the wedding. I probably checked 15 times that I was sending the pic to the right person because I was so terrified of accidently sending it to him.

  • Haven't gotten any weird ones lately, but I sent one that was pretty embarrassing:

    H and I were on vacation last week with my family and some old family friends.  When I was running errands earlier in the day, I had texted one of the friends - who I grew up with - to see whether he and his wife would like to join H and I for dinner that night and catch up.

    H went out for a run later and texted me to tell me that when he got back, he would take a shower and get ready for dinner.  I responded with a pretty graphic text about what I would like to do to him in the shower before we went to dinner.  Or so I thought.

    Turns out friend had texted me back at abut the same time and I clicked on the wrong message when I sent the response.  This was embarrassing enough, considering that I have known him since we were babies and he's like a brother to me.  But the fact that his new wife (just married 3 weeks earlier) saw the text on his phone screen when it came in made it much, much worse.

  • I'm laughing so hard right now, and thanking my lucky stars that the only mistake texts I've sent or received have been along the lines of "Stopping at TJs on the way home and will get more milk."

    I do this CONSTANTLY. Yesterday I texted my best friend to grab lemons on his way home from work. For some reason my little brain assumes that the person I need to text is the most recent person I've texted.

  • Oh! I have another one to share!

    Though this was more ongoing.

    I had a coworker who I texted with about work stuff regularly, so he was always one of the last people I'd texted. A few times I went to text things to close friends or my FI (to include inappropriate pictures and hilarious and "wrong" memes). It was usually pictures, but now and then some innocent text would get out (usually like, "Hey, what's up?") Thankfully, he had an ancient phone that couldn't receive pictures. I'm talking, a remnant of 1999 or something.

    Still, I always felt like an idiot when I sent him a picture text I shouldn't have. I really should not text before noon.

    This is me. I always text DH when I get to work and half the time I text BFF and say, "I'm at work now honey." Then she winks at me.

  • I always double check that I'm texting the right person, especially with dirty texts.

    I think I've only texted someone on accident once and that was an innocuous reply to H or something like that.

    Me too. I'm super paranoid about it. 

    My last wrong text could have been super bad, I was trying to text H (then BF) and I accidentally sent it to my twitter. Luckily I was just saying something like "done at the gym on my way to your place" and nothing at all

    It wasn't actually me but it freaked out a friend of mine.

    She got a text from an unknown number that said something like "Hey baby it's MegEN I'm so hot for you right now I can't wait to suck your..." yadda yadda yadda. She freaked and came running to my desk asking me if I'd texted her instead of FI like I'd intended.

    Turns out it was a text spammer.

  • We were watching an NFL game where FI's favorite team was getting crushed. My Dad, a fan of another losing my team was watching the same game and meant to send me a text that said "I feel FI's pain", but instead read "I feel FI's penis." I pretended to read it as I know he intended and replied back "yeah this game is pretty bad." Meanwhile FI and I died laughing about it. We never spoke about that game again.
  • These all remind me of my mum when her and my dad were first dating. He asked her to call him, so she did.
    Nothing dirty was said, just "hi, how's your day" etc etc. Then she asked if they were going out later, and it turned out to my my poppa {dad's dad} on the phone!! My mother was mortified, but it made my poppa kind of love her more ahahaha!
