Alot of time whenever I have problems there seems to be no one to help me, or if I ask for help, no one wants to help. For the past few days I've been having technical problems on myspace and I post a bulletin asking if others are experiencing the same and I never get a response. Now another problem stared today where I can view the first page of my friend space and when i click on "next" or any of the page number links, I can't get anywhere.

I am visible out in the real world and sometimes even on here it seems. Sad

Sometimes I feel like a ghost.

People see me, I know they do.But they think I'm too dense to hear or see.And when I call them on it they say

"You're so rude.No wonder why you have no friends."

Yeah, sometimes I feel that way. But only if I'm at school and my friends aren't around. They always show up eventually though. (I only go about three hours or so a week, so they hang out with me while they can.)

My "invisibility" inspired my username. Smile

Yes. Then when people start gathering around to talk to me I really don't feel comfortable and wish I could throw a smoke bomb and get away very quickly.

Oh, yes all the time. Socially, and sometimes even physically! Don't you just love it when you are walking down a crowded hallway and someone will walk right into you like you weren't even there, and then they will give you "the look" like it was your fault?

I have found that MySpace is just one big technical problem Mad I didn't use it for very long.

Yes.
When I was at a course last year, it seemed that no one saw me. When walking through the halls, people would literally walk into me and not apologize. None of the students my age would talk to me and when I did speak up in class, they acted like it was the first time that they had ever saw me. There were some adult students in another class, they talked to me but it was in a patronizing way, so I would have rather not been spoken to at all in that situation. Mad

At home sometimes I feel invisiable. When my mother and step father have friends over sometimes I sit with them. When I try and add something to the conversation, they either look at me then continue talking about what they were talking about or completely ignore me and talk over me.

I just wrote about that happening to me without seeing your post. Seems like a lot of us have similar problems...or rather, a lot of people have problems with us. Confused

Sometimes I forget that people can see me. Does that count as feeling invisible?

Many times when ive been to family gatherings with either my own or my boyfriends family i feel invisible. I feel like the world is crumbling inside me, and no one will notice. My boyfriend leaves me and goes to chat with people, ill sit huddled up somewhere not talking to anyone. I rarely eat anything either. Eventually, things will get so bad i just have to leave. So i get up and go outside. And stand there. I dont know what would happen if i didnt leave, im scared i might throw the biggest meltdown ever. Most of the time i feel invisible cause no one seems to notice me at these gatherings. Even my boyfriend doesnt seem to notice that im gone, or sitting alone somewhere. Sometimes i feel like people can see right through me..
