(posting because I want it in writing for later reference, since I only just managed to put words around it)
I have trouble with being grouped socially if it's not obvious that there is awareness of the uniqueness of the individuals being grouped. Interpersonal examples of this include not seeming to care which person within said group one talks to or spends time with.
I kinda wonder if this relates at all to why I really don't like being a part of groups which are formed solely on a single attribute. (I tend to hang out on fringes of social groups in general, so I doubt it's the entire reason)
[edit: because you people want an example.
Something like an unexpected phone call, with the caller stating a lack of caring as to which of the residents they talk to. No matter who the caller is, or why they called, that'll make me immediately not want to talk to them.]

Quite possibly!
Interestingly, your comment doesn't bother me in the same way. (still annoying, but not something I _expect_ to be specific to me. If that makes sense?)
