Why can't I reply to my friend using Facebook or Messenger on the same thread?

If you're friends with someone on Facebook or Messenger, you may have several different contact profiles for the same person. Their phone number, Facebook, and Messenger info may be stored as different contacts on your phone. In this case, you need to link these contacts manually.
