13 Things You'll Understand if You're Part of a Group Chat

Group chats. We've all been part of one. And it's either the best or worst thing that's ever happened to us. Or it could be both. There are times when you can't put your phone down because you're having too much fun chatting with your friends, other times you just want to throw your phone to the wall because you can't bear receiving more text alerts. Whether you love being in a group chat or not, here are 15 struggles only you can understand:

1. Putting your phone down for a minute and coming back to 300+ messages.

And you're left there wondering how 4 people can text that much in such a short amount of time. So now you have to read through everything or else you might miss something imporant.

2. Making plans is impossible.

Even if you successfully plan something, it took HOURS. There are people who aren't responding or your conversation keeps getting so sidetracked that you forgot you're planning something in the first place!

3. When you're part of a large group chat and there are three conversations going on and you can't keep up.

Seriously, WHAT IS HAPPENING?!

4. When someone messages "so last night.."

Ohhh, things are about to get interesting!

5. When you accidentally text the wrong group chat

Why can't you delete texts?!

6. When it seems that the group chat only blows up when you cannot be on your phone

It's only when you're in class or you're working that your friends have suddenly decided to talk about literally everything.

7. And when you do try to blow up the group chat, no one responds

Listen to my feelings about how great this burrito I'm currently eating is!

8. When you finally have time to read and you get exhausted just by reading through everything.

By the time you're finished, it feels like you've gone through a 600-page novel!

9. But it's a different story when someone's getting roasted

And you're so glad it's not you.

10. There's always that one person who never replies.

#me

11. When you privately message a friend and they ignore you but they're active in the group chat

Girl, if you have time to crack jokes in the group chat you have time to reply to me.

12. But having a separate conversation with someone outside the group chat feels weird

Some drama is def going down.

13. But then you realize, you don't really ever want to leave.

Because no matter how annoying and tiring it can be at times, you love having a squad you can talk to anytime of everyday.
