Don't deny the unintended nature of the message, even if you think there is a way to mitigate its impact through doing so.<BR/><BR/>Such idiocy on my part cost me in a matter of seconds the trust I'd worked hard to develop over many months. <BR/><BR/>I would still have been "in trouble" for having sent the message to begin with, but by having admitted it was not intended for her, we might still be together. <BR/><BR/>Life lesson learned.

I asked her if she would be interested in a late night rendezvous at a bar that we both frequent. Now I have to preface the remainder of this story by telling you that I have in my life attracted an inordinate number of girls with the name Christine... or some mild variation... Christie, Kristen, etc... A very generic name in today's society I know... Much to my surprise the text I sent did not reach the person I intended it for. A completely different girl showed up. This left me with a bit or a moral dilemma... Did I A)pretend that the right girl had shown up, or B) apologize profusely and explain the situation... I went with option C). I didn't think it was fair to lead anyone on so I made up some lame excuse to leave abruptly... not sure if it was the right thing to do, but it definitely seemed like the best way to spare her feelings and I wanted to be a gentleman. <BR/><BR/>FYI. I stumbled across your blog by chance. Whether it's for a class or not, I hope you keep it up.

I once sent an old boyfriend a very dirty sextext like message and was quickly reminded of how gross these messages can be to others...unfortunately, this did not deter me from sending many more of the same variety in the later weeks.

Though I can't say your post didn't give me a chill. <BR/><BR/>I once inadvertently sent a faux lovey-dovey text to a guy friend of mine... to my fiance. Try explaining that one.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, found your blog by accident, but it's great. You're an awesome writer.melissa.havergalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11020990890544844088noreply@blogger.com
