    He sent texts “intended for his wife” to a female student.

    How would he have a female student's number? I would say you couldn't PAY me to have a student's number ... but that's not true. But the amount you'd HAVE to pay me to have a student's number is a pretty fucking big number.

    I have a friend my age who coaches girls high school basketball. He texts with every player I think. It just is that way now.

    I'd be scared to death of actually accidentally sending a text intended for my wife to a player. And nothing illicit, either. Mostly my complaints to her about their crazy helicopter parents.

    (And this might be the rare instance I'm with Mike Pence about something. I just wouldn't want to leave myself open to anything. Even the most innocent of conversations can look really bad without context and/or in the hands of a lawyer/administrator. If parents don't like you, anything can become fodder to be fired -- or worse. Kinda how I'd arrive at this Luddite position.)

    I'd be safe. About 90% of the texts I send to my wife are sent as I'm leaving work, asking if she's eaten lunch yet.

    My fiance has a twin sister, and their names both start with the same letter. Because I'm someone who enjoys the occasional drunk text, her sister is saved as "Her Sister" in my phone.

    I applaud your courage, Ty. Same-sex marriage can’t be easy where you live. Congrats to you and your fiance.

    I can't tell if that is a gay joke or a "I'm a lady" joke, but either way I chuckled.
