Today I recieved a text message from a number did not recognize. Because there are people who have my number, but whose number I have not added to my contacts, I replied to this message, and a conversation ensued. This is the dialogue of such a conversation.
Mystery #: Hey
Me: Howdy. Who is this?
Mystery #: Tyler
Me: Oh, odd. It didn't say it was you, What's up?
(At this point I was under the impression it was a Tyler I actually knew)
Tyler: it this daniel?
Me: Lol, nope. This is Claire. Is this Tyler G?
Tyler: nope. Tyler m sorry.
Tyler: r u Claire Ingles?
Tyler: or Engles haha.

Me: It's okay. Lol
Tyler: u sure?
Me: Yes. I'm sure.
Tyler: u want to keep txting?
Me Idk. U?
Tyler: idk haha :)
And then I did a ballsy thing. I called him. I was tired of texting. we talked for about a minute and I told him I thought it was weird to have a two hour conversation with a person I didn't know. He was apologetic about the situation and then we said goodbye. A truly strange thing.
