I too, find myself in the wrong category many times, and I guess it was my habit!.

I tend to be the odd one out!.
And I guess, the thing to do, is, remember that the common point being we are humans!.
That might help!.

If there's no enjoyment in hanging out with different categories, I guess, we have a choice!. :-)Www@QuestionHome@Com

If for no other reason that it asserts our identity against their difference, the more we hold in common the less distinction there is to our unique identity!. We become "einer von denem", just another member of the herd!.

On the other hand we frequently find things we have in common, and develop interesting associations!. Variety is the spice of life!. Nothing is learned by those who share only the same knowledge and interests!. It rounds and expands our character and understanding!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I've never seen it that way or had any idea it was expected of me to have something in common with whomever I'm hanging out with!.
The more I listen to what others have to say regardless of who they are, the more I discover what things in common or similarities we shareWww@QuestionHome@Com

Every action and outing ought to have a purpose, otherwise you may just loiter around and mix with the wrong and dangerous company!. Mix with a wider group of friends with varied interests; then you would find the right friends to spend useful time with you!. Be flexible and at the same time be more discerning when making friends!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

sometimes it is better to have a conversation or "hang out" with someone you have nothing in common with!. they can teach you something new about yourself or the world, not to be too dramaticWww@QuestionHome@Com

I don't really understand this - It isnt my experience - can you give us more details about who you are expected to hang out with!?

I only hang out with people I have a huge amount in common with otherwise I would feel sacrificial!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I don't!. Do what I do!. Just leave - don't say anything - just get up and walk out!. They'll get the hint!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
