Question about weird cell phone text situation

From time to time I will send a picture or text to my daughter at the phone I gave her mom and it will arrive there with a different phone number attached, one that is not mine and the same one every time. My ex actually called that number and the lady wasn't all that friendly, though I don't blame her, since my ex asked "Who is this?" which you just don't do when calling someone.

Anyhow, anyone know why my texts would arrive there with this person's number attached?

Because as it is I'm getting questioned about if I'm seeing/fucking someone new, which I'm not. I'd really like to lay that shit to rest so certain people can leave me the fuck alone about my personal business.

You mean sending her a text while I am there?

The only problem is there's no telling when it'll happen as it doesn't happen every time. But when it does happen, apparently it's always the same number with an Illinois area code. I live in MD.

Just sounds like your cell provider having routing issues with the great network in the sky. I can't get mine to get the name that appears when I call somebody right. Been trying for months. Says I'm a yacht club. lol

I figured it might be as much. But even if I knew exactly how to explain where all the bits and bytes are getting fucked up, there's no easy way to explain to my ex. Technology on a whole is beyond her comprehension.

Send multiple texts... aside from that I don't have enough tech know-how to theorize why this would happen... actually it's the first I've ever heard of it...

Contact your cell phone provider.

btw just an aside, your ex has no business in your personal love life asking such questions whether you're fucking someone else etc., just my 2 cents peace
