[Anonymous]

This struck me as kind of icky. I don’t know why. I’m a pretty sappy person normally.

PP here. Maybe I'm cynical, but the wrong person could've tried to blackmail her or blasted her messages on social media. Also, I
m not 100% sure this isn't made up for attention. This will be the new way to go viral.

This is most definitely fake.

Why?

Yeah. It could have been sweet if he’d texted her back after a week or 2 - but FOUR YEARS is not just creepy, it’s voyeuristic and predatory. Not okay. Not sweet.

I live it that he lost his daughter. It’s sweet.

I'm confused. Did she cancel her father's mobile service or not? If she kept his phone and number activated how would this guy have access?

I posted earlier in the thread 'this is so fake'. Primarily because when someone dies the family either cancels the contract, the number becomes unavailable for a period of time and the number goes back to the pool for eventual reuse, or they I suppose could keep paying it and keep the number for the family.

There's no way it would seamlessly transfer to random fake guy. All of her early messages would've been rejected as the number would have been unavailable, the guy couldn't have had the number the same 4 years her dad was gone.

Plus men (and real people) don't talk like that. I find it sick when people try to play on people's emotions like this.

This is so fake and I'm shocked by how many people believe this. Nothing about this makes sense.

I absolutely agree. The kind of thing is preposterous

I know why. Because it is icky.

She thinks she is sending messages to the ether, and some random person is reading them and engaging (however distantly) in her life. That's icky.

It is like having a peep hole into your next door neighbor's bathroom.

It didn't necessarily "seamlessly transfer." She could have started the texting months after her father died when, as you said, the number had gone back into the pool to be reassigned.

That's what happened to me when I moved to DC and changed to a 202 number. Soon afterward, someone else got my old 703 number and for months, that person was getting texts and calls that were for me, because there was no way to forward my new number.

So how do you even know this happened if you and the person who got your old number couldn't communicate?

Read the article. It says every day since her father died.

NP here. Obviously because she eventually got in touch with old friends who we’re trying to text her! I can see talking via FB messenger/Snapchat/email and saying “So, what’s the deal? Why are you ignoring my texts?” Then PP would have told them they have a new number.
