DuckyDew tells us more.
OP here. Just a few things I'd like to clarify: 1. We both live with our parents, and we have a dog together. I had been taking care of his dog while his parents were at work, before I had to go to work myself. He told me his mom rushed out of the house that morning without letting out our dog, and asked me to get there ASAP. So, when I got there, I saw he was home a few days earlier than anticipated. Turns out it was his way of surprising me, which was super sweet. 2. We're on a level where calling each other asshole, dick, and other such things is fine — it's more of a term of endearment at this stage. 3. I'm lucky enough that, once I explained to my boss what happened, he just laughed and told me to make good choices. Thank God for understanding bosses!

Maybe he just got back and was tired / wanted to rest. Way to assume the worst.
Love you boss... Confirming if he is an Axxhole or not ???

You must not think your boyfriend is very bright if you thought he texted you to come over despite the fact he was already there ...
29, OP already explained it on number 2...
im with you OP, my husband and i call each other fuckwits and dickheads on a frequent basis and always have in the 5 years we have been together! people think we fight when really thats just how we talk to each other
Good goin OP.....at least there wasn't another car there
Ha thats cool you reached the stage
I'd call you stupid, but that'd be an insult to stupid people
That means, all of us who have accidentally texted the wrong person before, are just outright dumb? Eeeeeekk! Accidents happen, lol.
I think everybody, including me, is stupid. some just show it more than others. also, don't take everything on here so seriously. any comment I post, I post for my own amusement. Not to be serious. have a fantastical day!
If it's solely for your amusement, then why comment?
Why question it?
YDI for not checking who the recipient was first. Also, I get that you didn't like your boyfriend coming home early without telling you, but that doesn't warrant calling him an asshole until you know all the facts. There could have been an emergency, maybe he wanted to surprise you, etc. Or maybe he wanted to spend some time alone.
OP already posted a follow-up. Yeah, the text was an accident but they call each other names as a form of endearment and yes, he was surprising her.
If your boyfriend is coming home early from trips without telling you, it might be time to walk away.

ALWAYS double check whom you have selected as the recipient, particularly if it's a less than friendly message.
She was probably saying it in a joking way. I know a lot of people who do that with their friends or partners, and I've done it once or twice. And in her defense, she kinda has a right to be frustrated with him for not mentioning he was home. She probably wanted to see him.
