are you comfortable with all kinds of different people

I have mixed with company directors and people without a pot to piss in
been in stately homes and jails ! dont even know why I wanted to ask this question ,But here goes
Is there anyone you are uncomfortable with when in there presence ??

 

For me:- It's all about Characteristics, Persona and Honesty
I treat people as they treat me , regardless of Race, Creed, Colour Sexual persuasion - though I' like to rise above those without class and/or conscience.
I defer to me Arien background = Defend; with Spartan shield, those who deserve it - and though my Hippie faith = Peace and Love - I refer to a line from a Batman film "Though I would not do thee harm - that doesn't mean have to Help"

 

I don't like assholes.

 

It depends on the person of course. Who cares if they're a company director or on wellfare...? I even enjoy the company of certain assholes, an asshole is rarely an asshole about EVERYTHING So if he happens to be very funny or something, or just pleasant company for me in particular I don't dismiss that person for being an asshole in general. It just depends if they feel like bein an asshole around me too.. that would probably get old fast. But if you ask me if I can be comfortable around people that are considered assholes by most.. yes, I can (depending on the person and their exact behaviour of course)!

 

I have a problem with fundamentalists - not just for religion but anyone - people who say "everyone must be like me" regardless what they are talking about, faith, orientation, gender, politics

I am also uncomfortable around a great deal of wealth, just makes me wonder what they have been up to

 

That. And that is it.

If someone is not an asshole I can be around them.

 

Generally speaking, yes. Those few that I am not necessarily going to best buddies with usually are more of a casual type of arrangement so that does make it easier to ignore or move past what I would not find compatible.

 

I don't have a problem with fundamentalists on itself, but I have with those who bother other people with it on a frequent basis. Some fundamentalists are aware they can be tolerated, or even better; accepted, when they accept others are and think not like them and never will, and that it doesn't have to be a problem

 

I think a better question to ask is "Are all types of people comfortable with you?"

 

Well, all types may be a bit too much to ask

 

Stupid question ! how are you ever going to know that ?
thats why I asked it the other way

 

I'm never comfortable around people. That's why I don't work and live alone. They hate my guts and wish I'd die hahahah

 

I'm with Wiz on this. As long as you're not an asshole or creepy I'm good.

 

Hahahaaa! Uhm wait

 

I am not good around most people because I don't have a fucking thing to say to most of them. Because of that, I think I come across as strange or perhaps even arrogant. When I do say something out of feeling obligated to do so, it feels disingenuous and forced. I just cannot seem to muster up the energy to be phony, so I think I came across somewhat detached and distant because that is how I feel in social situations. It seems people are threatened if you're quiet and don't say much. I can talk for hours with people who are clued in to the same things I am, but it seems the only thing most people know about these days are sports, and I fucking HATE sports. If they know anything at all about what's going on in the world, that knowledge comes from talking points they heard on the TV. Overall, I prefer to be around those who are slightly eccentric yet intelligent and not too much weirder than I am. Really, the typical American male annoys the hell out of me. They're like walking stereotypes found on a shitty sitcom. Women aren't much better, but at least they're cute.

 

It's logical to be comfortable around likeminded people. The art of being comfortable around people really starts with people that are not like yourself or aren't only into the same things you are.

 

Maybe it's just that I've become more boring as I've gotten older-had a kid- but I find I have something in common w almost everyone and can talk to almost anyone....even if it's just about little stuff.

 

Eh, I'm disliked and I know it. I'm comfortable with / around others more than they are with me.

 

I think being around too many people drains me and so when I'm put in that situation, I tend to become very quiet and stay in my own mind so I can really relate to what Rat said.

I like being around just one other person. It's more intimate. So just, being around more than just a couple of people in general, any type of people, makes me pretty uncomfortable. Though if I really force myself to be social, I can do it, though I get the vibe many people find me strange by my mannerisms and things I say. I've had times when the whole group will become silent in unison because I said something awkward. Ermm..

Other than that, the only type of people that I can think of that makes me really uncomfortable are people at religious congregations. I'll sometimes go to religious functions just for the hell of it, because I've been invited. Then people start talking to me and it makes me uncomfortable, cuz all the while, I'm just thinking, "dude, you're so brainwashed..."

 

I like you. Might count for something.
