Everyone has a past. That includes past relationships that didn’t work out for one reason or another, and a long (or short) list of exes that includes some we’d rather not talk about (or to).
That said, sometimes emotions get the better of us (or we’ve had too much to drink), and texts get sent and received…and as long as they don’t belong to you, they can be pretty darn funny.
That said, these 18 are bad enough they might even make strangers cringe.
18. Just call them out on it.
We all knew it was a lie.
My ex…forgetting he has a new gf at bar close.

I hope they blocked them and moved on.

Hopefully they’ll learn their lesson about going forward next time.

8. You can’t have it both ways.
In or out, my friend.

7. Nope, they don’t feel sorry for you.
Not now, either. Pay up.

Yeesh. Get a life.

4. Why are people like this?
Some self-restraint, please.
3. Make it stop.
They should probably just stop replying.

2. I’m guessing we all know how this turned out.
At least, I certainly hope we do.

1. Oldest excuse in the book.
If you’re a millennial, anyway.
My ex girlfriend ladies and germs
byu/Zompokenator03 inOopsDidntMeanTo
Y’all, I’m just so glad none of these came from my phone.
Do you have any hidden texts that are worthy of this list? We’re dying to laugh at your expense in the comments!
