Iphone 11 Pro Max Texting help

When I try to text anyone in my contacts, their phone number does not come up. Instead it says something like, "Siri has found the following contact in your email" and it tries to text the person's email. The phone number is not even listed as an option. Help please!

It is hard to say. All you have to do is go to Settings>iMessage and see if it is activated. Then check your Send & Receive and ensure that your phone number is checked. That could cause your messages not to select a person's phone number.
