Join table of foreign keys

Question

I have two tables, groups and users and I am trying to do things like:

1. Is a user pending their membership (if a group has a private setting and the user must be verified first)

2. When did the user join the group

etc.

For this reason, I am wondering if it is considered a valid choice to make a new table, something like groups_users which has a primary key that I completely ignore, but it has foreign keys user_id and group_id , and then fields like is_admin , is_pending , joined_on , etc.

Or, is there another way to do this that does not involve making such a table?
