this happens to me too. what is the specific model of your phone? if you have a samsung or lg, it is possible that you started typing with t9 off, or accidentally started typing in the address field, and it learned it. now everytime that you type it again and dont fix it right away, it keeps it in memory.

T9 is the shit. Dude, your problem is that the words you're trying to use aren't in your dictionary yet, or the phone still thinks you would prefer those other options. Do you know how to change the last letter you entered? Just enter those words letter-by-letter a few times and it will start defaulting to them. To make T9 good it takes a couple days of slow entry to get all the words you want. And now for a rant because those stupid fucking keyboard phones piss me off like you wouldn't believe.
Why would you EVER spend the money to buy a phone that caters to a technology that's shittier than phone technology? Hey, check it out, I got this crazy new phone that allows me to spend my time writing out messages better instead of listening to someone's fucking voice, which is faster, more personal, and better in every possible way. It's a step backwards and all you dumbasses are suckered into buying it anyways. Texting should be for three things:
1. Sending small amounts of information quickly
Ex. Meet me in front of my place in ten.
Ex. Forgot to remind you to bring my twenty dollars you prick, don't forget.
2. When you can't talk because of where you are, or you don't want to talk loudly because you're talking about something personal, inappropriate, or illegal. Keep in mind that if it's so personal you don't want to talk about it in front of people, you should just talk to the person face-to-face at another time instead of fucking texting them about it. But if you must, it's acceptable in this situation.
Ex. Class, bus, in line, etc.
Ex. I was fucking this girl in the ass last night and...
3. When you don't have service where you are and you want the message to get out as soon as you do so you don't forget.
Fuck these kids holding whole goddamn conversations over texting, it doesn't make any sense. It's impersonal, you can't tell any emotion, you can't tell the tone of voice, you can say whatever the hell you want, it's gay as hell. Fuck keyboard phones. /rant.

Sorry for the double post but I would like to withdraw Example #2 from Exhibit B, reading "I was fucking this girl in the ass last night...". It made sense at the time, and then I realized that you should never ever be telling a story over texting. You should save those for face-to-face, or at least the phone. It's way better that way. Now /rant.
