Don't go where you don't belong

Hi

I have no more context, but does the phrase "Don't go where you don't belong" mean "Don't do something you have no knowledge/idea about"?

Newguest I have no more context, but does the phrase "Don't go where you don't belong" mean "Don't do something you have no knowledge/idea about"? As you rightly suspect, it may depend on context, but that is one possible meaning. It also frequently means that you shouldn't try to associate with people who are not similar to you and do not want you to associate with them.

It can also literally mean 'Don't go to a place that you won't fit in or be accepted at.'
