Whether your school years are long gone by now or you are still studying, I think most of us know what it means and how it feels to be picked last in gym class. If we don’t know the actual feeling as we may have never been in such a situation – well, it’s not hard to imagine.
However, when you don’t need to avoid gym classes anymore, there appear to be many different situations that make you feel very similar. And unfortunately, there are a lot. For example, being one of two people who order a taxi and realizing that everyone else wants to go with that other person. Or finding out that your friends have a group chat in which you are not included. You understand the feeling.
Recently, one Reddit user popped the question online, asking folks to share what is the adult version of being picked last in gym class. The thread gained a lot of attention and different opinions, so scroll through and share your thoughts below!

Seeing everybody in the office return from a lunch outing you were never told about.
And the even worse flip side, arriving at the location for a group outing, and nobody else shows up because it was cancelled but nobody told you.

When you ask someone if they want to do something on a certain day and they go
“Yes but I’ll let you know if something else props up”
As in “I will but only as a last resort in case someone even better wants to hang out”

I went to my son’s Halloween class party last year and all the moms stood in the complete opposite corner of the room and I sat by myself the whole time. No one said a word to me and I’m not sure why. That one kinda stung.

Getting skipped when someone brings a birthday card for everyone to sign. Not just once, every time. I worked there long enough that I knew the birthday person way better than the person bringing around the card to be signed.
Then of course there is the “hey let’s order pizza” day but they don’t ask if you want to go in on it.
The best one is when someone tell you about something that happened and you were there and saw it yourself. You say I know I saw it. Their response “You were there?” Yes. I was standing right next to you.

Every year, my father and stepmother host Christmas dinner. We all get assigned something: appetizer, desert, sides, etc. I always get assigned cheese. I have never, in my entire life, enjoyed cheese. And I’m a pretty good cook (nothing special, but just sayin’ I could put something together).
Every year, they give me f**king cheese. And they bring their own, so why bother even giving me cheese?
