I should add I have a galaxy s5 and it did this on kit Kat 4.4.4 and now still on lolipop 5.0
 
There are two time codes in a text message and it's not uncommon for a carrier to screw one up. Known problem in the US and UK. I get it too.

In the past there were a number of helper apps to fix that but they've fallen by the wayside.

Textra, free in the Play Store, isn't fooled.

And you can swipe left inside a message thread - if the timestamps differ, it'll show you both - and automatically use the right one so your threads are in order.

If that's the problem you have, Textra will solve it.
 
It's a shame I have to download another app to fix it I was hoping to find a way to fix the actual problem without adding more apps
 
It's a shame that this is probably your carrier's fault (you have to get them to change to fix the problem at the source) and your built-in app can't cope with it.

Sorry my advice sucked for you. I didn't realize that you were out of app space.

Best luck.
