Text messages

Anyone else's phone receive several texts for one large message? For example when I receive texts that are larger than normal, it shows 1/5, 2/5, 3/5, 4/5, and 5/5 sometimes more sometimes less. It's aggravating cause when you should be receiving one message, you receive several texts. And they are usually out of order so you gotta go back and forth. Sorry if this was already posted I searched but couldn't find anything. I am on U.S. Cellular and have a galaxy s5. My friend has a s4 on U.S. Cellular also and hers doesn't do this. I think it did this for me also on the s4 and now on the s5. Maybe I'm just missing a setting? Any help?

I've been reading online and it sounds like the person who sends me the text that usually happens doesn't have their settings to send their text as MMS when it's long enough so that's why I get several texts instead of one large one. But I've been looking online for a setting to have it send as MMS when it's long enough. Anyone know where the setting is?
