WhatsApp is like Kim Kardashian. You either love the idea of it, or you hate it. 
There is, however, no denying WhatsApp has facilitated modern day communication. 
Particularly with the new stalker like blue ticks which subsequently tell you exactly what time your message was read.
Not that WhatsApp doesn’t come with its own beleaguered set of social issues.
The Italian Association of Matrimonial Lawyers has reported that 40% of adulterous cases in Italy cite WhatsApp messages as evidence of unfaithfulness, including using the service for sexting and exchanging ‘risqué photos of themselves.’
Whichever way you decide to use WhatsApp, people naturally fall into certain distinct WhatsApp profiles.


The Person Who Puts Up Weird Group Icons and Changes The Group Name
Also known as the bored individual.


The One Who Makes the Plans
Thanks goodness one of the group members is benevolent enough to make social plans. If only they could do it in one brief message though.

The One Who Changes The Plans
There is always annoying individual in the group, the self-centred person who will change plans to suit their timetable, irrespective of everyone else’s schedule.

The Silent User
They will be privy to all the conversations. But will never contribute. And no, you wouldn’t miss them if they weren’t in the group.

The One Who Keeps Leaving The Group
That one person who thinks the trajectory of the WhatsApp conversation is beneath them. So they leave the group. Only to miss the banter, so they re-join. It’s a vicious social circle.

The Religious WhatsApp User
This is sanctimonious member of the group who begins all messages with ‘Salams’ and ends most messages with Inshallah, Mashallah or Alhumdullah or a similar religious reference. They generally remain most active on Friday’s. 

The Forwarder
This is the one that forwards articles, comments, YouTube videos, and generally clutters your feed with incessant links.
They are also most prolific on Friday’s.
