Heck, you don’t even need someone's phone number for most things anymore. With all the direct messaging options on the majority of social media platforms, you can get in touch with whoever you need in multiple ways, much like the three conversations with one person I have going on Facebook, Instagram, and Snapchat.
All that aside, you may need to text someone directly, like when you exchange numbers with a cutie or new friend while out and about. Or you may prefer good old-fashioned texting (has texting even been around long enough to be considered old-fashioned?).
Just make sure you have the numbers saved correctly in your phone; otherwise, you may find yourself in an awkward situation. There’s no better place to prove this point than the Wrong Number subreddit.
Dedicated to sharing “tales of mistaken identity,” Redditors share screenshots of their wrong text exchanges. These posts run the gamut from hilarious to wholesome and completely bizarre.
We collected some of the highest-rated posts to share with you today. Keep scrolling to read more.
