You don't have to leave your apartment to make new friends. Just dial a few random numbers on FaceTime and see what sticks.

Rell Hill, who lives in Chicago, wanted to FaceTime a friend of his late last week. Instead, he accidentally dialed the wrong number — and FaceTimed a random 15-year-old.

Thinking his phone was on the fritz, Hill hung up and tried again. Still the same kid. So he decided to make the best of it by striking up a conversation.

They ended up chatting for over 10 minutes. "We were talking to each other like we knew each other," Hill told BuzzFeed News.

Aww. Maybe all your wrong-number gaffes don't have to be embarrassing after all.

BONUS: Damn you, Snapchat.
