This can be completely anonymous or if you want to share your opinion as to why I would be interested in hearing…and wondering if you will always feel this way.
I’m genuinely curious to the results of this poll. With everything that is known currently about both the vaccinated (albeit at what looks to be lower rates)/unvaccinated being able to transmit the virus are you willing hang out w/ an unvaccinated person who is taking precautions?

One of my best friends is a Broncos fan, so I can hang out with anyone.

I certainly have at times, and will continue to do so. I'm the one who is vaccinated and at a lower risk. That said, my inner circle of friends that we hang out with most are all vaccinated.

I need an "other" option. More along the lines of "Not intentionally for long stretches indoors."
If we're outside and can stay more than a couple feet apart (ie, not crowded in with a bunch of strangers), I'd be fine. I get really nervous if I'm indoors for any length of time with people I don't know or who aren't vaxxed. Even with my mask on.

I was like this until we learned more about Delta.
Lambda is even scarier if it takes hold in North America.

Well in some cases I can't really help it. I assume some of my employees are not vaccinated based on some comments they have made (we can't ask), and I kinda have to meet with them at times. Like I said our group of friends are all vaccinated, but I've been out to bars, restaurants, etc. with plenty of people around that I presume are not vaccinated - I'd consider that hanging around with people, even if I'm not really with them.
I'm generally more careful than most in public places though. I'll wear my mask around bars/restaurants when I'm not at my table, even if no one else is. Not out of any fear that I'll contract COVID, but doing what I can to prevent spread just in case.

Yeah, I get the work thing. Not much you can do about that!

I understand being put in situations where you’re going to be around an unvaccinated person (ie work, bars, restaurants, public).
But I’m more looking for in your “friends” circle, are you still willing to hang around someone who chooses not to be vaccinated.

This.
I just don't know how to convey this, given the current poll options.

We just choose to hang out with people (vaccinated or not) in an outdoor setting, which is pretty easy for us to do.
