I have felt like that in situations for years. It seemed that I was TRULY invisible!!! 
So i began to think ~ what kind of situations was I in, when I felt invisible? Was I around CLOSE friends, or were they acquaintances? Did I REALLY want to be there, or did I go as a favor to someone or did I go because I felt obligated due to family ties, etc?
Most of the time when I felt invisible, ignored, and dismissed, I was in a situation where I didn't want to be there in the first place -- where I wasn't with CLOSE friends, and where I wanted to get out of there more than anything else. LOL So I decided I would NOT put myself in those situations any longer. And i haven't. I can make myself very miserable all by myself, without going to some gathering where people are going to dismiss me besides!!!
It's up to me to keep myself safe from these kinds of situations. If it's absolutely IMPOSSIBLE -- then I'll have to just suffer for a little while, because it's not worth causing a scene. God bless & take care. Hugs, Lee
