40+ People Who Got Messages They Were Just Not Ready to Receive

A single message is more than capable of making or ruining your day. Whether it be a shocking text or a hilarious one, messages are a risky form of communication. For starters, you can’t decipher the tone of the sender’s voice. A text doesn’t do much to explain the severity of the issue either, and the worst part is, you don’t even know when it might hit the hardest.

Congratulations

Being in a committed relationship and having to deal with someone who potentially likes you can be an embarrassing situation. You have to let down the person quickly so it doesn’t cause too much damage to their self-esteem.

However, what if the one on the other end completely turns it around so now you’re the one feeling humiliated? One person only wanted to know what part of the PowerPoint presentation they needed to do and got the (in)famous “I have a boyfriend” response. Fine, keep your boyfriend.

At Least She Cares

By their very nature, mothers are caring and nurturing beings. Remember the time you got 13 calls from your mother so they could ask you if you took your vitamins? She simply wanted to make sure you’re okay. A mother texted her son, Matt, terrified that something horrible had happened to him.

Fortunately, Matt was safe and sound. This would have been an extremely heartwarming mother-son moment had she not gotten her son’s age wrong — that too by two years!

Who Is This?

There are two kinds of people after a breakup. The first kind who are completely fine with their exes, maintain contact with them and thus, have their number. The second type wants to forget their ex ever existed — the embarrassment or sadness being too much to handle.

However, if you’re the latter, chances are, you might face this situation the next time your ex tries to contact you. Even if they deserve to be ignored, this might be a tad bit too harsh, as the receiver rightfully said.

Asking the Important Questions

Camryn really must not have liked Cole to have done this. Not only did she give him her number only to disregard it the very next morning, but she also forgot that it ever happened. Poor Cole! After more than a year later, the girl he was crushing on returns, but it’s not for what he thinks.

Asking the Important Questions

After hearing from the unknown number that it’s not actually Camryn, he must have moved on from the incident. Had she not been that ignorant, he could’ve lived in his little bubble forever.
