please make me feel less sick by sharing your horror stories of sending messages to the person you’re talking about/screenshots. Bonus points if it’s worked related!

I was reading a message from someone I had just started seeing, and talking to a friend about how I had been going to therapy and it had definitely been making me less crazy (lol). Somehow had my hand on the record button and sent that snippet as a voice note to him.

Texted begging him to delete without listening and he said he did!

I had an elderly male pupil (I'm a tutor) and we both enjoyed gardening. We would often split packets of seeds. I meant to text 'would you like some nasturtiums?' but my phone autocorrected to 'would you like some masturbation?'. I didn't realise until the next time I went to text him something else and saw the previous message. He didn't reply and I taught him for many more years. Neither of us have ever mentioned it!

I was the recipient of one of these when I was the lodger of someone I worked with.

I had a boyfriend and we'd been out the night before and were not in a rush to get up the next morning (Saturday) we were also both shift workers so didn't see that much of each other on the weekend.

Anyway, I got a message from the landlady saying "they are still in bed!!"

I then heard the door slam very shortly afterwards which was presumably as a result of her realising what she had done and making herself scarce 🤣

She came home hours later and hugged me apologetically. I didn't really care, she hadn't said anything particularly bad it was just funny that it was obvious she had been bitching about me to someone.

I moved in with the boyfriend not long after 😃

Surely thats ideal from a lodger? In their room and not milling around the kitchen and lounge

I haven't done what you described, OP, but I have a terrible habit of typing Ho instead of Hi, and this is usually to women I don't know well enough to launch into a text without addressing them by name and introducing myself first.
