Try something like GO SMS or handcent. That will rule out if its application specific, if that doesn't work maybe try deleting her as a contact and putting her number in manually when sending a text (or if she has multiple numbers that are marked as mobile, but are infact not). it might try send it to those.

I encountered this "problem" a couple of days ago when trying to send my daughter an SMS - tried twice, and twice it said "failed to send."

It turned out that it was because of her entry in the contacts list - her home number appears before her mobile number, so the 'phone was (by default) trying to send the SMS to the wrong number.

Have a look through the failed-send messages and you'll likely find the 'phone was trying to send them to her home or work number instead of her mobile.

Two things to do...

1. On your girlfriend's contact, long-tap her mobile number and select "Make Default Number."

2. From the contacts list, tap Menu -> Preferences -> View Contact, and tick the "Text Action for Mobile Only" tickbox.
