Today, I got a spam text addressed to my ex. One of those “WE BUY REAL ESTATE FAST!” types with an address I don’t recognize.

Ugh, how is my phone number even connected with their house?!

    Maybe I’m missing something obvious here, but how do you know the ex’s gender? I’m not saying you’re wrong, I just don’t get how you got to that conclusion.

        It is ( But be very careful saying that bro [m/f] not everyone agrees to that anymore )

      Ouch … Obviously I did not think about it and I struck a nerve there. (Maybe I expected it to be read in the spirit as it was meant) Fine. Take your pick:

      • It probably isn’t. More likely, she is tied to the house, you are still tied to her in some (out-dated) database
      • It probably isn’t. More likely, he is tied to the house, you are still tied to him in some (out-dated) database
      • It probably isn’t. More likely, he/she/it is tied to the house, you are still tied to him/her/it in some (out-dated) database
      • It probably isn’t. More likely, <being-001> is tied to the house, you are still tied to <being-001> in some (out-dated) database

        Why would you think it touched a nerve? I’m just asking what I’m missing. And as it turns out what I was missing is that you were just guessing. Now I understand the situation.
