When you're in a group chat, there are several unspoken rules and dynamics that are intrinsic to the way conversation flows. Sure every group of friends is different and all friend groups are unique with different senses of humor and opinions. But, whether its a group chat of brand new friends or one of longtime BFFs, some things are always the same.

Here're eight things you're probably in the middle of sending to one of your group chats right now...

1. The Ugly Selfie

The classic staple of a friendship that has surpassed materialism and traversed into the world of double chins.

2. The Rant About a Significant Other

Always a dramatic conversation with the other members of the group chat working to be helpful usually involving some form of a "GIRLLLL what he do??"

3. The "What Picture Should I Post" Text

The difficulty of determining which edit of a picture is the best and what pose looks good is something that's hard to handle alone. Opinions from your group chat can help you figure out what works.

4. The "What Should I Caption This" Text

A sister text to the "what picture should I post" text, usually followed by a slew of puns or song lyrics.

5. The "Let's Hang Out" Texts

One of the hardest parts of a Group Chat is making time for each other around everyone's individual schedule. Lot's of "okay, how about NEXT weekend?"s, and "I'm busy"s. Very frustrating.

6. The "What Are We Wearing" Text

Once you actually figure out a set of plans, it's important that the whole squad knows what the fit of choice should be. Wouldn't want to roll up in business casual to a sweats-and-hoodie event.

7. The Political Conversations

Politics don't necessarily apply to our day to day lives and many people try to keep it that way but there's always a time when even your group chat is lit with a new political wave of conversation.

And last but not least...

8. The Late Night Conversations

Arguably the best conversations you'll have on your group chat. The deeper conversation and the soul-baring talks that start to happen when its 1, 2 and 3 a.m. make you learn more about your friends and realize things you never knew... and no one is complaining.
