Do you like chatting with friends?
수험생
Yes, I absolutely enjoy chatting with my friends. In my opinion, it is a great way to stay updated on their lives and keep our friendships going. I usually catch up with my friends two or three times per month at least so I can know what's going on in their lives and how they are doing in general.

What do you usually chat about with friends?

With close friends we literally talk about everything. It can be our career choice, new partner, a trip we really are looking forward to. Additionally, we also talk about some deep stuff like our feelings and emotions that we are afraid to open up to others.

Do you prefer to chat with a group of people or with only one friend?
수험생
It depends on the situation. If I want to share something personal, I would open up to only one friend because then we can have some deep and intimate conversation. However, if it is for organizing a party or planning a trip, I prefer a group of people because there are so many ideas.

Do you prefer to communicate face-to-face or via social media?
수험생
Face to face conversation is the best form of communication because not only can you hear what they're saying, you can also say their facial expressions which could make you interpret the conversation in more depth. However, if it is not feasible, I'm fine with social media too.

Yes, I do argue with my friends, especially when they cross my boundaries and ask Deborah about it. Crossing boundaries are quite common among friends. However, being stubborn and fail to apologize just show umm, disrespect and I just cannot tolerate it.

✓ Face to face conversation is the best form of communication because not only can you hear what they're saying, you can also see their facial expressions which could make you interpret the conversation in more depth.
The verb 'say' is incorrectly used here; the correct verb is 'see' because facial expressions are observed visually, not heard or spoken. Using 'see' correctly describes perceiving facial expressions.
× Crossing boundaries are quite common among friends.
✓ Crossing boundaries is quite common among friends.
The subject 'Crossing boundaries' is singular (gerund phrase), so the verb should be singular 'is' instead of plural 'are' to maintain subject-verb agreement.
× However, being stubborn and fail to apologize just show umm, disrespect and I just cannot tolerate it.
✓ However, being stubborn and failing to apologize just shows, umm, disrespect and I just cannot tolerate it.
The phrase 'being stubborn and fail to apologize' mixes forms; both should be gerunds for parallelism: 'being stubborn and failing to apologize'. Also, the verb 'show' should be singular 'shows' to agree with the singular subject.
