✓ Yes, I love having chats with my friends because I'm able to connect with them on a different level.

The phrase 'having chat' is incorrect because 'chat' is a countable noun here and should be pluralized as 'chats' when used with 'having'. The correct form is 'having chats'.

× When we're talking, we discussed about many different things.

✓ But there are some personal things that I would only share with my best friend, so at that point I would prefer having alone time with my friend.

'An individual person' should be plural 'individual persons' to match 'we all'. Also, 'unless you're not disrespecting' is incorrect; 'as long as you're not disrespecting' is appropriate.
