Should I Send This? What to Do Before You Delete It

You know that moment—you get that text. The one that makes your blood boil, your heart sink, or your stomach twist. You fire off a response, typing out all the things you wish you could say, raw and unfiltered.

But then, your rational side kicks in. “Maybe I shouldn’t send this.”

So you delete it.

But here’s the thing: Those words? They matter. They’re part of your story. And just because you don’t send them doesn’t mean they’re meaningless.

That’s where UnstSentOutLoud.com comes in.

What We’re About:

We’re building a space where all those unsent messages—the texts, the emails, the DMs you never hit “send” on—can find a purpose. It’s not about stirring the pot; it’s about validating your feelings and connecting with others who’ve been in your shoes.

This Week’s Challenge:

Next time you write a heated reply or pour your emotions into a text you’ll never send, don’t just delete it.

1. Take a Screenshot. Capture the message before you erase it.

2. Send It Our Way. Email us at released@unsentoutloud.com, send it or drop it into the chat on our app.

3. Stay Anonymous. We’ll share it without any personal details, turning your unsent words into something that might help someone else feel seen.

   
   

Why? Because we’ve all been there. And sometimes, seeing that someone else gets it can make all the difference.
