What is Overlooked?

You're there but people don't register you. Your presence doesn't seem to land.

When you might feel overlooked

Overlooked is a specific form of invisible, which itself is a type of unseen. You might experience this feeling in situations where unseen is present, particularly when the circumstances align with the nuances that define overlooked.
