When nobody sits with you: making friends again, sentence 3

The first weeks she was nervous but hopeful; by month two she felt flat and tired and stopped trying to join in, and pulling back made her even more alone, so the circle turned again; hiding in the library every lunch meant nobody even saw she needed someone.

Who acts: Loneliness, pulling, circle, nobody · What happens: be, feel, stop, try, join in, pull back · To what, where: Loneliness, lunch, library, someone · Speech: someone speaks here
