Ex "Accidentally" texts after a year: interpret this

Recommended Posts

backstory, I haven't used this site in a while. I got dumped by a girl about a year ago. We went out for around a year. We haven't talked since last December. I think about her sometimes still, but would say I'm pretty close to completely over her.

 

OK...i just wanted some objective opinions on a situation. The other night after not talking to this girl for about 9 months I get a text from her. I'll just transcribe the convo here. And I'd like to get your take on this, cause it puzzled me.

 

1:34 am

Her: "Qqqz"

Me: "Wtf?"

Her: "???"

Her: "Oooh ****. Apparently my phone pushed buttons and texted you first. Um Sorry."

Me(sent right when I was getting that last one, but hadn't read it yet): "I got a text from this number saying "Qqqz"

Her: Sorry, (my name). You know this is, (her name), by the way

Me: Ok

 

 

The whole thing really puzzled me. And I wanted to get some outside opinions on whether or not she really "accidentally" texted me. I seriously doubt it. I don't have her number in my phone anymore and was surprised she even had it. It just seems like too many things would have to happen for her to get to my name press it, type something, and send it. Not to mention the last thing she sent to me, basically making sure I knew who it was and her typing my name.

 

Anyways I shouldn't even care. This was just somewhat of an ego boost, if she actually is still thinking about me. Not that I would act, since I'm completely over. Would just be nice to know that some tramp who dumped me is still thinking of me. Thanks

she was fishing, you should of not responded

 

a) why does she have your number for 9 months?

b) she texted you on purpose

 

she was still thinking about you (ego boast)

 

eitherway, thats a horse **** way to communicate to someone whom heart you broke, just ignore it and keep moving forward, don't look back just note you were on her mind :-)

In my phone I still have the number of my ex who I split up with well over a year ago, the numbers of the two exes before him, and the number of my ex who I split up with four and a half years ago. It's quite possible that your ex still has your number, and she sat on her phone or something and it accidentally sent a text which, as luck would have it, ended up being sent to you. People have sent me similar texts before, because their phone was unlocked in their bag or pocket and random buttons got pushed. It happens.

 

It's not like she was using it to get back in touch with you or anything, as (I assume) she hasn't contacted you since. There would be no benefit in her sending you a random text unless she was using it as a means of getting in touch again, which she clearly isn't. Sorry but I think you're over-analysing this one - perhaps it's wishful thinking because you want to believe that she texted you on purpose. I think it sounds like a genuine mistake and you should forget about it.

What's to interpret ? She didn't actually write anything except sorry.

 

I think she made an error.. 10-1 your number gets deleted now.

 

A few years ago we hired a new girl at work by the name of Laura..

One day while sending email to work from my home computer I sent an email to a bunch of people at work .. including the new girl.

 

Except I had put the new girl from work's email in and a girl I dated 2.5 years before by the name of Laura is who that email got sent to.. I had no idea that I sent the email to the wrong person because all he contact list said was Laura.

 

Guess what.. I didn't even know I had made a mistake until about a week later when I got an email from the old girl I used to date asking what the email meant..

 

I deleted her email and put in the new employees email in my contact immediately... and no I didn't even reply..

 

So... I did something similar and didn't even mean to contact her..

I think she was fishing... seeing if you'd respond to her. Seeing if she still "had" you. You took the bait.

Don't over analyze this and just continue to move forward.

 

But she was thinking about you.

From having alot of female friends, and past experiences girls delete there ex bf number the first couple of weeks after the breakup or a month after. She did it on purpose, which means your number was not in her address book, she typed in your cell phone number, and entered a text to get a response from you.

 

She is fishing, seeing how far she can get, and aslong as you comment back her mission is complete, shes happy aslong as you comment back.

She might be missing you...maybe she was bored, maybe her new BF is not treating her so good, either way ignore her.

Yup, I agree she went fishing. If you consider "Qqqz" and the combination of keys needed to capitalize, this little worm was hand baited.

 

Move on and don't let her jack with your mind.

Not necessarily - my Blackberry will automatically capitalize the first letter of a text message.

 

Ever heard of "butt dialing"? Could be the same thing.

 

I still have my ex's number in my phone because in the (unlikely) event that he tried to contact me, I sure as hell would want to see his name show up on my phone, not some number I don't recognize and could thus be caught off guard by answering.

 

Bottom line, let it go. Who cares whether she was fishing or not.
