Unseen
Ever felt unseen by everyone
I go about my day making everyone around me happy but no one really sees me, I feel invisible each time. I thought maybe if I find love (a relationship) I will feel loved and seen but I can't seem to find real and genuine love it all come And go, I'm loyal, honest and I love hard and deeply but some how dishonest people finds me attractive but I end up unseen and alone time and time again and I some how stopped believing or wanting love or to be seen by other and learnt to build an emotional hall around my feelings but sometimes it's lonely alone. I just want to be seen and loved

You are not alone and it is very frustrating. many of us go about our day doing small, nice things for all around us maybe helping them in big and small ways to not only be unappreciated but to also be taken for granted. like our efforts are just expected.
I get the building an emotional wall around us because otherwise we can end up angry or self-medicated just to try to understand why we are standing right here but unnoticed. it does seem like people often attract those who seem to feel we can be ignored or unseen.
Breaking the cycle requires us to value ourselves more and NOT be the person who always is agreeable and will keep doing for others telling ourselves they will finally figure it out and show us how much the notice and care etc.
If people around us do not get it........ believe me they "see" us when we are gone and no longer carrying the load of a friendship or relationship. it is not selfish but self-preservation. If with someone now, speak up tell them your needs and wants and if that is something they cannot provide you need to value yourself to go find the person who can.
