There are times when certain groups don't add anything to your life (Photo: Shutterstock)
We’ve all been there: you’re busy minding your own business and then suddenly find yourself added to a certain group. To add insult to injury, nobody asks you if it’s okay to add you to the group. It seems like they just assume that because they have your number and talk to you once in a while, you won’t mind being part of the group.
This kind of behavior not only irks me but it puts me in a weird position because most of the time, I don’t want to be part of the group and then I can’t figure out a way to leave politely without coming across as a snob.
