WATCH OUT

My Apple Watch messaged my crush what I told my friends about him – I’m mortified

Never have I ever talked about my crush to my friends only to have my Apple Watch dictate what I said and text him our conversation.

By the rules of the classic five-finger party game Never Have I Ever, if someone ever got this specific with their prompt, I'm probably the only one in the world who would have to put their finger down.

If your biggest fear is your friend finding out that you were talking about them behind their back (even if it was in a positive light), beware that I've found something that tops that.

I knew about the dictation feature available on Apple technology, which enables you to dictate any text from anywhere, at any time.

What I didn't realize was that it meant literally any time.

Imagine talking to your friend about your crush, and your brand new Apple Watch (that you have no idea how to use), sends them exactly what you’re saying.

Well, that horror story happened to me. Here's how.

It was just your average girls' night before heading out. We were pregaming, gossiping, and talking about our past, present, and future.

We chatted about all aspects of life, not just boys.

All was normal until it heard me. It, meaning, Siri. My Apple Watch. My new arch-nemesis.

At first, I thought it was weirdly coincidental that he happened to text me while that conversation was happening.

But that's when I opened my phone to see what he said. One word, and that's when my heart sank: "What?"

At that moment, I knew.

My Apple Watch had just dictated my conversation and texted him what I was saying.
