Behavior that could make someone feel isolated and excluded from a group includes ignoring or dismissive body language, such as crossing arms, legs, or lips; avoiding eye contact; refusing to participate in group conversations; speaking in a quiet and monotone voice; and making deliberate efforts to cut someone out of the conversation. These behaviors can lead to feeling unwelcome, unseen, and unsupported within the group.

Subtle behaviors that could make someone feel isolated and excluded from a group include not making eye contact, crossing arms or legs, maintaining physical distance from the group, playing with a cellphone or other objects, and being largely ignored when attempting to join in on the conversation. Other nonverbal cues such as facial expressions, body posture, head nods and shakes can all lead to feelings of isolation and exclusion. These are especially important clues when it comes to social interactions which require greater degrees of tact.
