The Gingerbread (Android 2.3) included a bug fix for the text message issue. That's why you haven't seen the issue since the update.

I had a Android G1 phone with T-mobile for 3 years and never had this problem.
No insult intended but this is what happens when users get use to the software doing all the thinking for them, the more the software is integrated and set to predict the users reactions or response.. Welcome to the technology world.. I still say this issue is coming from a applications contacts integration process.
Thanks for taking the time to respond to my post. I don't know the source of the problem. I use a phone primarily for 2 reasons, to make calls and to send texts, if my phone can't do that I have no use for it. I have been building and maintaning computers for over 20 years, I appreciate being welcomed to the technology world none the less.
A few weeks or so after I posted the problem on this forum my phone prompted me for a firmware update. Since the update I haven't seen any problems sending texts. My thunderbolt is current running Android 2.3.4 and HTC Sense 2.1.
I'm most definitely NOT a VZW employee. If a post answered your question, please mark it as the answer.

Yes, that is the conclusion I came to. I still find it unacceptable that a phone would ship with a major text messaging bug, I would be satisfied with an apology and a $100 credit on my bill.

Verizon knows its an issue. However they did not bother to tell a single thunderbolt user about it. Verizon does not care about your privacy.
HTC acknowledges its an issue - Verizon has known about this since August 2011 yet does care to fix it.
Just shows you that verizon really does not care about their customers or their privacy at all.
I'm running Android 2.3.4(Gingerbread), using Handcent, HTC Sense V2.1, and this just happened to me. Nothing has been fixed. I just had to explain to a good friend of mine why I was sending provocative texts to his girlfriend. Garbage like this make me want to finally break my vow to myself and buy an iPhone...
it was an issue on froyo.. search every device on google before GB every phone had the problem
remove handcent and see if you still have the problem, when you reply to a text give it a full second before you start typing
