    You're right, I would not associate with someone like that, and I would not want people to think I would.

    How important is it for you to have individuals be in the "right" place or the place they "belong"? Do phrases like "I'll put you in the right place", "You don't belong here", "You are an outsider" appeal to you? Do you find yourself saying or thinking this often about other people? And do you find it necessary to enforce this belief?

    Thank you.
    Some people are in the wrong places and maybe they dont belong. I don't see it as my responsibility to tell them where to go, so I don't identify with "I'll put you in the right place", if I think someone doesn't belong I'll behave in a manner with only superficial warmth, but if others are interacting openly and normally, then I take this as a sign that they do belong.
    If the individual see's that collectively that they are not being accepted they will normally go on their way.

    Everyone is an individual and I will try to interact with all people as best I can, sometimes though, there are people you wish you never started talking too and whilst I would not ignore these people and I would try to act patiently, or even try to integrate them into whatever social group they are attempting to move into, there is always a line.
