To find cliques boring and oppressive?

Yes I know that they are inevitable in human relationships and that I am probably part of a clique but I prefer to be open to different types of people and therefore experiences.
Actually I'd really love to live as a hermit for a bit and avoid all the drama that goes on!

Where do you live?

They're are no cliques or drama at my school and nursery

work, well that's a different matter....

I am the outsider, constantly.

even in my friendship groups i am never the one that is in the middle of anything.

I like it that way.

hate cliques. like being back at school. find them very boring and normally centred around one v needy person, so i dont get involved.

clique is just a bunch of people.dont confer elevated status on them.and to an extent its in the interpretation and terminology. a clique would probably argue "oh no we aren't cliquey just close" and i suppose someone not invited to participate feels excluded and thinks "cliquey"

imo no biggie and certainly not worth bothering about
