[quote=Anonymous]This is literally every social event for us at our private school, only after 2 years there, they don’t talk to us at all and the men are like this too. It is so awkward that we will probably just stop going. I don’t get it, we smile, say hi, we go to everything, we volunteer, we try to latch on to any thread we are given to make conversation. But there is just nothing to work with. And I mean nothing. I am pretty outgoing and I can’t think of any other time in my life that it was like this. They stand around in small, tight circles having very individualized conversations and they have absolutely no curiosity about anyone outside of their already well-established groups. It is so weird. They treat us like we are invisible, they look past us, around us, and through us. There is barely any eye contact or acknowledgment. So then we just end up sitting at a table by ourselves or standing by ourselves. They either ignore us like this or they are flat out rude. Once we were actually starting to have a nice conversation with someone, some rude woman walked right in front of us and started talking to the person as if we didn’t exist. Another time, I noticed that this other woman was whispering to someone else with her hand up like she was in middle school while staring in my direction. And even in the few cases where we have met and talked to a few people, when we see them again, they ignore us and pretend as though we never met. Ugh! Maybe this is just an affluent person thing, though. Hopefully this isn’t the way all people are becoming. [/quote]
