× talking about everything, what had happened in my life and you know, what's going on in my life and taking updates from them.
✓ talking about everything, what has happened in my life and you know, what's going on in my life and taking updates from them.
The past perfect tense 'had happened' is incorrect here because the context is about recent or current events. The present perfect 'has happened' is appropriate to indicate actions that have relevance to the present.
× When I talk to one of my best friend, I really enjoy spending time with her and talking to her.
✓ When I talk to one of my best friends, I really enjoy spending time with her and talking to her.
The phrase 'one of my best friend' is incorrect because 'friend' should be plural when preceded by 'one of my'. It should be 'one of my best friends'.
× I usually there is no specific topics, it's just about what's going on in her life, what's wrong happened, what good things are happening with us.
✓ Usually, there are no specific topics; it's just about what's going on in her life, what went wrong, and what good things are happening with us.
The sentence incorrectly uses 'there is' with the plural noun 'topics'. The correct form is 'there are'. Also, 'what wrong happened' is incorrect; it should be 'what went wrong'.
× what wrong happened
✓ what went wrong
The phrase 'what wrong happened' is grammatically incorrect. The correct past tense expression is 'what went wrong'.
× chatting, what had happened and you know, this sort of things we like to discuss.
✓ chatting, what has happened and you know, these sorts of things we like to discuss.
Again, 'had happened' is incorrect here; 'has happened' is appropriate. Also, 'this sort of things' should be 'these sorts of things' to agree in number.
× this sort of things we like to discuss.
✓ these sorts of things we like to discuss.
The phrase 'this sort of things' mixes singular 'this sort' with plural 'things'. It should be plural 'these sorts of things'.
× I do not prefer to group.
✓ I do not prefer groups.
The phrase 'prefer to group' is incorrect. The verb 'prefer' should be followed by a noun or gerund. Here, 'groups' is the correct noun form.
× Whether I do not prefer to chat with a group of friends?
✓ I do not prefer to chat with a group of friends.
The sentence is incorrectly structured as a question with 'Whether'. It should be a statement without 'Whether'.
× I only prefer my few friends. I have only few friends.
✓ I only prefer my few friends. I have only a few friends.
The phrase 'only few friends' is incorrect; it should be 'only a few friends' to indicate a small number.
× or you know had a conversation with them.
✓ or you know have a conversation with them.
The past tense 'had' is incorrect here because the context is habitual action. The present tense 'have' is appropriate.
× I am very restrictive person when it comes to socializing myself.
✓ I am a very reserved person when it comes to socializing.
The phrase 'restrictive person' is incorrect; 'reserved person' is more appropriate. Also, 'socializing myself' is incorrect; 'socializing' alone suffices.
× It totally depends on what sort of availability I am having.
✓ It totally depends on what sort of availability I have.
The phrase 'availability I am having' is awkward. The simple present 'availability I have' is more natural.
× I sometime face to face meetings are more meaningful.
✓ Sometimes face-to-face meetings are more meaningful.
'Sometime' should be 'Sometimes' to indicate frequency. Also, 'face to face' should be hyphenated as 'face-to-face'.
× But I mean, when we do not have time or we are, you know, in different cities, we generally prefer to talk or to communicate via social media, yeah.
✓ But I mean, when we do not have time or we are, you know, in different cities, we generally prefer to talk or communicate through social media, yeah.
The preposition 'via' is acceptable but 'through' is more commonly used with 'communicate'. Also, 'to communicate' can be simplified to 'communicate'.
× Yeah, certainly we do argue if our opinions are not matching or if I think there is a point which I am confident about.
✓ Yeah, certainly we do argue if our opinions do not match or if I think there is a point I am confident about.
The phrase 'opinions are not matching' is incorrect; 'opinions do not match' is correct. Also, 'which I am confident about' should be 'I am confident about'.
× I do not generally argue argue, but I sort of make them understand of why I am right and why they need to change that perspective on that part.
✓ I do not generally argue, but I try to make them understand why I am right and why they need to change that perspective on that part.
The repeated 'argue argue' is an error. Also, 'make them understand of why' is incorrect; it should be 'make them understand why'. The verb 'try to make' is more natural.
