21 Truths About Group Friendships

    It's all fun and games until there's a group text.

    1. You can openly share your most intimate dreams with them... as long as you're prepared to get roasted by the group.

    2. Group texts definitely get out of hand FAST.

    3. You often wonder how more than one person can know you better than you know yourself.

    4. You've definitely asked yourself if all friends are as close as you and your friends are.

    5. You know things are getting real when one person within the group takes you aside and says "we need to talk."

    6. It's pretty much impossible to coordinate plans with so many people in a group.

    7. You have so many inside jokes together that it feels like your group basically speaks its own language...

    8. ...which means it can be hard for your group to include other people.

    9. And introducing someone you're dating to the whole group? Oof. It can be a challenge.

    10. Nothing that makes you more nervous than one person in the group sharing a secret with you and then saying "...but don't tell ANYONE ELSE."

    14. Sometimes, you feel like you have to DEMAND to be heard in the group.

    15. Each of your friends has a special, unique role with your group. The nurturer, the baby, the troublemaker...

    16. You've inevitably felt left out when other people in your group seem closer.

    17. And it's pretty easy to rally into a party mood with a group.

    18. You're never afraid to dance at parties, because everyone who matters has already seen your ~signature moves.~

    19. Nothing feels better than knowing several people will be just as (if not more) excited as you over your accomplishments...

    20. ...because even small victories turn into huge celebrations with your friends.

    21. But the best part? You've got several people who are always there to pull you back up when you're feeling down.
