The husband feels lonely and excluded from group chats made by friends who excluded him from the weekend without him. The wife suggests reaching out to friends and reminds him to be more assertive in his friendships, reminding him to take time to connect with friends and show them that he cares about them.

I feel really left out and lonely. My friends excluded me from the group chat and they're making plans for the weekend without me.

I'm sorry to hear that, honey. Have you tried reaching out to them and asking if you could join in on the plans?
human
I haven't yet, but I don't want to come off as desperate or annoying.

I understand that, but sometimes it's best to just ask. And if they still don't include you, then maybe they aren't really your true friends.
human
You're right. It's just hard for me to put myself out there sometimes. But I guess I need to learn to be more assertive.

Speaking of learning, remember when we talked about how you always rush through things without enjoying the moment? Maybe you could try applying that to your friendships as well. Take time to really connect with your friends and show them that you care about them.

That's a good point. I'll work on being more present in my friendships. Thank you for the advice, sweetheart.

Of course, I'm always here to help. And don't worry, everything will work out in the end.
