Sent an anonymous 'I miss you' text to an ex — got one back instantly

A forum user shares a story from the pre-smartphone era when phones had a 'caller ID block' feature. They sent an anonymous text to their ex saying 'I miss you,' expecting silence. Instead, they got an anonymous text right back saying 'Me too.'

Neither of them had the guts to say it normally, so they both hid behind the same trick at the same time. Painful and adorable.

The reply comment below, with 249 likes, reads: 'I'm so excited and giddy wondering who my future boyfriend will be.' This person read that whole bittersweet love story and immediately started daydreaming about their own future romance. Priorities.
