You sound like me. Just the other day, I was at my child's sporting competition. I smiled, went up to the other mom's, made polite conversation here and there. Then when it came time to take our seats in the stands, I went first and sat on a long bench, they went and sat down about 5 rows in front of me, all together, watching our kids compete. I sat at the top row there by myself. I know they saw me. This happens all the time. It's like, wherever I sit, they sit somewhere else. I used to get up and come down and sit where they were, or if they are already seated when I get there, I would sit next to them.

I guess they don't like me, I really don't know why. It can be quite depressing, but everyone is like that with me. Maybe I really am weird. I'm not ugly or fat or obnoxious and smell or anything obvious.

And then earlier, a couple of the moms were talking about where they were going to go eat afterwards with the kids, and I was standing there, and then they kind of dropped the subject BECAUSE THEY WERE AFRAID I'D INVITE MYSELF OR SOMETHING! I think.

Maybe I'll just ignore them from now on. Next event, I won't say a word to anyone and just go sit by myself. Wonder how many of them will say even hello to me.
