If you and your best friends all go to different schools, you without a doubt created a group chat that you all write in at least twice a week to keep in touch. Sometimes weeks will go by where you've barely all talked to one another but you can always count on one person in the group text to text a random "I miss you all" or "omg you wouldn't believe what happened last night." If you and your best friends have a group message here 16 things that you should know all too well.

1. You leave your phone for 5 minutes and you come back to 400 messages.

2. It's almost impossible to make plans.

Either a few people don't answer or the whole conversation gets sidetracked and you soon realize that you didn't even make plans.

3. You gossip about people's Instagram posts.

5. There's always that one person that goes MIA for awhile and we just continue to blow their phone up.

6. The question, "Is everyone looking cute or can I dress like a hobo?" is always asked before a get together.

Because no one wants to show up in a cute outfit when they could of just worn yoga pants and a hoodie.

7. There's always like three different conversations going on at once and it's impossible to keep up.

10. When that one person who's been MIA finally responds:

11. When the group chat becomes heated your phone battery goes from 100% to 0% real fast.

12. You could make a photo album with all of the screenshots that are sent daily.

Mainly any guy we are in a relationship with/talking to should know that anything you send to us is most likely sent to the group chat for a second opinion on what to say.

13. We all get so excited when a message starts out with, "You won't believe what happened last night."

Because we all love hearing about the most current drama in our friends lives.

14. You ask for everyone's honest opinion and usually get back about 12 sarcastic responses instead.

15. When you ask a question or make a comment and no one responds.

16. There's always one person that chimes in after 456 messages and asks what's going on.

But we all know that life wouldn't be the same without the group chat. They always keep the conversation going and it's a way to stay in touch with each other when we unfortunately cannot see each other as often as we would like to. I'd like to give a shout out to my group chat, thank you for being the best group of friends a girl could ask for, I love you all!
