Sometimes you hate being a part of them, but you definitely hate being left out of them. Group chats really bring people together. And nothing epitomizes girl friendships better than a group chat that offers endless support, advice, and making fun of screenshots and how stupid boys can be.
Every group chat has its main contributors, the ones who are always trying to plan things, the ones who occasionally reply with random memes and funny gifs, and those who barely ever answer. But whichever you are, here are 8 struggles relevant to anyone who has ever been in a high maintenance group chat.

1. If you’re hanging out with other people when your group chat blows up, you’re guaranteed to hear “Wow, you’re so popular!”
No, it's just a group chat.
2. It always blows up at the worst times.
Either you’re in class and your phone won’t stop buzzing or you're in a really important meeting.
3. And then while catching up on the messages that you missed, the conversation is still going so it takes you all the way to the bottom and you have to scroll up again.
And nothing makes you want to rip your hair out more than this.
4. Getting ignored is no fun.
And nothing stops you from sending 15+ unanswered messages till someone agrees to hangout with you or listen to your latest story.
5. When 2 people have their own conversation that pertains to no one else, and they could just privately message each other, but they don’t.
6. Making plans can be really frustrating.
Some people want to do different things at different times and it’s nearly impossible for everyone to coordinate (especially if your group is filled with indecisive people).
7. They’re a great support system but they roast you constantly.
Whether you make a typo or send something to the wrong chat, they’ll be there to call you out faster than you can correct anything.
8. Constantly being torn between muting the chat (since it won’t stop buzzing and you need to sleep or study) and worrying that you’ll miss out.
One of your friends is sending screenshots of an entire conversation, and the drama is just too good to miss out on.
