Help Brand new, can't send any texts

Just like the title says, I unboxed it and texted a few people to test it out. Went perfectly. Started talking to a friend and suddenly it stopped sending texts. It just gives me the red exclamation mark and says it failed. I can still get texts from him, though.

I've tried restarting the phone, other than that, not sure what to do.

Just tried sending a text to my fianc

Maybe it was a problem with Verizon's network and your call to them fixed it.

It may have been a problem on their end with the number not transferring/registering with the phone properly. They will tell you it is at your end while slyly fixing it at theirs.
