Do you feel like you are "invisible" to society?

And by this I suppose I mean unacknowledged. My 60+ yo mom says this sometimes—that nobody notices her when she’s out in public.

Yesterday, one of my fellow actors who is also in his 60s was taking pity that he wasn’t a socially welcomed part of the cast (which I found odd given that he’s a retired professional soldier and black ops guy who will talk you into the ground if you let him.)

Today, a fellow jelly cried invisible. I’ll let her tell her story.

I find the claim puzzling, because one can do any number of things for attention or validation, and who doesn’t love the company of someone who has grown secure and comfortable in themselves, which is something anyone can do.

So what’s the “I’m invisible” claim about for you?
