So you feel like they don't want to be around you and have nobody to talk to?
assistant
Restatement or Paraphrasing
Yes, but also just no one to hang out with. I am a loner.

You prefer it that way?

No. I want to hang out with people.

I follow you. It is hard to see people outside of usual social circles right now with the pandemic going on. Out of curiosity tell me what you like doing with others?
assistant

I can understand that. I have not seem my own friends for almost a year because of COVID-19. It felt isolated and lonely.

What do you do to feel better?
user

It has not been easy but I focused on myself. I started doing more exercise and weight lifting. I took up learning how to invest money, and I also got into the habit of reading. Basically I build myself up in body, wallet, and mind so I feel better about myself progressively. It worked well for me at least. What do you think might help you?

That all sounds great. I think I'll need to do more exercising. I do like reading so I'll do that too. Thank you for the suggestions! I appreciate it.

What would you say might be good exercise or reading goals for you?
assistant

I think just start doing them and continue doing them are good goals for me for now. Thank you! I feel better!
