My friends can’t see my message when I text them

When I text my friend they can’t see my message but when they text me I’m able to see theirs, my messages are sending as a sms and they are on a android and it’s only happening with them and we don’t know how to fix it because we both looked if we had each other blocked and we don’t.

Did they previously have an iPhone? If so, they may still need to deregister iMessage - Deregister iMessage on your iPhone or online - Apple Support.
