So I recently organized an event that meant the world to me. It was on my Vision Board & I poured my whole heart into making it happen—from guest invites to the tiniest details.
But… when the official post about the event went up, only the University societies were tagged. Not me. Not my podcast page. Nothing.
It kinda stung.
Not because I wanted applause or a gold star—but because this was my first time showing up for myself like that.
After sitting with it for a few days, I finally sent a polite, honest message to the professor thanking him—but also sharing how much that tiny recognition would've meant.
He replied, but the tone felt… a bit cold. Like maybe I shouldn’t have said anything.
But now I’m spiraling just a little—did I overstep? Was I wrong to speak up?Am I problematic? Why can't I fit in? Maybe I need to learn Manipulating skills...
What will be your suggestion?
