I would try to adapt, but if the crowd and I are too far apart in personal values or beliefs, I would exit.

Depends on the end goal... like what are we getting out of it.

In college I transferred and felt out of place, but the end goal was learning and graduating, so I tried to fit in and get though it and get to the next step. Sometimes you just have to get to the next step of the process.

Other times, when I felt like the end goal wasn't worth it, or was too far away, or too different from what I wanted, I would leave.

I don't much care for being in crowds. I suppose I pretty much always exit.

If it's not my type of gathering I usually find someone who looks unsociable and go talk to them..

@SW-User Someday we will meet inperson at my California Mansion

If I have to stay for whatever reason I'll just smile politely and think about more interesting things while I'm there and it ends. But if I have the opportunity to leave I would leave. Cause there are probably better things to do.

Ah be like a tree an leaf

Exit. I don’t like crowds on a good day

I ve had anxiety around people unfortunately most of my teen life so I usually used to wish the event would end faster and I could just go home lol

Exit

Maybe I'm making this too complicated but define "out of place".

I rarely feel out of place in a crowd. I tend to fit into most situations.

I must be there for a reason so I just be myself and go about my business. Cause the others to feel uncomfortable.

Even if I felt comfortable in a crowd I would probably find an excuse to leave and be by myself.

Depends, sometimes you just have to be there, other times an unobtrusive exit is definitely on the cards

I tend to stay on the outside and observe (I’m not a serial killer), so I suppose exit.

Nah let’s make the rest uncomfortable 😃

It depends on why I would be there. A hasty exit if it’s something mundane like a birthday

Care to share about yourself.

I'd probably leave. I often do even when I do fit in.

Latter. No energy to waste.

I don’t fit in anywhere and I’m ok with that

exit, asap 😐

Just leave, not worth the effort

I'd leave.

Try to fit in

I'd do what i can do so easily in a crowd -.create my own little bubble of isolation .

Crowds are one of those things that can make one feel even more alone.


So,I go with it.


Unless of course a panic attack starts and then I'm,kinda like a crazed goat and zig zag my way outta tjere.

Exit

I tried to exist and when I couldn't, I built a cocoon and hide in it for as long as it takes

I would you try to fit in until the food and beer runs out.

Feeling uncomfortable in a crowd just sucks .... exit at my first opportunity.
