I have a few times, but never anything bad. I think I once sent a "Hey Sweetheart" to the wrong person, but that would be the worst!

Happened to me twice & both were pretty bad. LOL. The first time, I'd meant to send a very... naughty text to my partner and actually sent it to the wrong person. Humiliation! The last time, I'd texted something to who I thought was my close friend & told them very private, scary things that had happened to me and guess what? It was the wrong number and 1AM & some old dude ended up giving me advice! LOL It was actually a nice chat though. He encouraged me to tell my dad what had happened to me & I told him I could not break his heart. He said he had daughters my age (I was about 17 at the time) and would prefer them to tell him so he could protect them. I never did tell my dad what happened, but it was a very interesting and embarrassing chat with a strange old guy. LOL

My mom actually texted someone (the wrong person) last week and made a joke and she got in some serious shit for it. She had thought it was her friend's number but she'd typed in ONE number wrong & the person was pissed & asked where she worked & what her district manager's number was!? WTF? Just over a joke she texted a friend! It had nothing to do with her work or her job! She is the manager of the place she works, but she did have to tell her district manager. She wasn't in trouble though. They just thought it was funny & insane that someone would think to tell the employer of a stranger just over an innocent (and funny) accident. The joke wasn't even offensive... really! HAHA

I sent a friend of mine a text one day and found out her number had been changed and some guy answered the text and I ended up being friends with him for a long time.

I've accidentally texted a friend instead of my partner but it was only an "I miss you" text so I just played if off

But there are times when I'm texting my cousin and my partner at the same time and my phone will change messages while I'm typing to one of them so the other gets the message. It's confusing and annoying but they're used to it.

Never sent naughty stuff to the wrong person but I have sent like "I'm here!" and stuff like that to the wrong person due to texting in a rush.

I have a couple of times, only once did it turn out to be a big deal! Other times it was just a simple, 'oops-wrong person!' and no harm was done.

Rarely, and only once it was kind of embarrassing, but thankfully it went to someone that didn't mind.

I have a extra dialog setup so it makes sure I want to text said person before it sends.

Almost never, but when I do, it always goes to that one person who REALLY shouldn't be reading that. Murphey's law.

It's only happened once and luckily it was accidentally sent to someone who we considered a friend. Thankfully my text to my wife was more romantic instead of naughty.

One time I was talking to two different guys at the same time and ended up sending the wrong text to the wrong guy. Then I fumbled to try and cover for myself. It turned out ok, but I was scrambling for a few minutes trying to get myself back on track lol

not often but it has had on a few occassions. Depending on what i said depends on the embarrassment level, if i say something like yea or no, thats no big deall but if im in deep conversation thats a totally different story but usually i am texting the right person when im really into the conversation

I once did at work.
I was sending an email to my boss in which I was writing about a certain customer.

Unfortunately I didn't send the mail to my boss, but to the customer.

So embarrassing.

i dont think it's happened in a number of years. it's just so unlikely to happen, although sometimes i think i have text the wrong person when i didnt. however i do misdial calls a lot, calling my mom or dialing my partner when i need to get a hold of someone else.

I've done it once. A friend and my mom sent me texts that said almost the exact same thing, but were in totally different contexts, and I mixed them up. Luckily it was nothing important. I always double check when I send texts.

Not yet thankfully. But I have accidentally clicked on the wrong skype name! Then I need to have a conversation with them so it's not weird and whatever and my plans get derailed. Embarrassing, but not that big a deal.
