I was bullied and rejected all throughout school for being "ugly". Then I left school and had a huge glow-up, but now nobody pays attention to me at all. I went from being an outcast to being completely invisible

sounds like you're still ugly, real human beings who have developed a fully formed soul don't like ugly people and mostly pretend they don't exist but they're not actively malicious about it the way children are

I look completely normal now. People uglier than me have friends.

you probably just don't notice it
i never knew but apparently i get a lot of female attention and i learned this after i started working with guys who would tell me
>dude she was so into you
etc after interacting with women
sometimes i do notice it now but i still usually miss the signals

Is there any way to test if females give you attention if you're in the basement all day and only go outside to grab food?

sorry i can't help you because i am retarded but normals send signals to each other in the street
one time when i was like 20 this older girl straight up stared at me as we passed each other and that was an open invitation but i just thought i looked weird or something
step one is stop virgin walking
step two is looking at people (i don't do this)

Looking normal is not enough to get attention anon. If you don't stand out significantly above other men, you're not going to see strong interest from women.

I was going to say all of this.
OP must be confused, average men do not get unwarranted attention from women or people.

Then you didn't have a glow up, why do you even think you had one if you didn't get any attention? I went from being ugly to chadlite and I noticed it.

I'm not spending money just to get treated the same way everyone else gets treated just for existing. They never had to spend money for anyone to notice them, so if I have to, I expect to be treated better than them.

Our school system is the largest psychological warfare experiment known to man.
There is nothing natural or human about jamming 500-2k kids into a building and forcing them to get along under strict guidelines. I think people of the future will eventually re-evaluate this concept and come to the conclusion that its highly psychologically damaging to people.

School is a forced tight knit community much like early human hierarchical tribes only there's no tribal elders, only 1 adult for every 30 kids and those adults have no real investment in your upbringing. So what you get is lord of the flies type situation in which being ugly gets you rejected.

In a tribal world you could leave the tribe, in the modern world nobody cares because the line between tribes is so blurred you can be part of multiple tribes and even choose to leave your own family. This is why you feel invisible.

You are no longer a member of a tribe. All you have to do is join a tribe and they might notice you but they will have never seen the old you so you will never be acknowledged for your glow up.

I went to therapy and lost all the weight I had put on from depression.

I'm not fat or depressed anymore. I've fixed all my problems, yet I'm still getting nothing.

I'm kinda socially retarded and lanky (6'2, slim but not anorexic). Some potential signals I've been given by various women:
>stared at me for 20s with a slight smile on her face.
>a lot of unnecessary touches on my arms/hands.
>staying way too close to me when talking to me, while facing me.
>strong eye contact when talking to me.
>laughing/giggling at almost everything I say, despite not being funny.
>blushing and stuttering when talking to me.
>being too helpful to me, to the point of figuring out what I'll want next and doing it before I ask.
It's important to note that from what I've read online, this stuff matters only if they only do it to you and not to other dudes. If they behave the same with other dudes, then they're just nice with everyone so the signals mean nothing. And apparently some women will do the opposite and basically act like you don't exist when they like you. I've even had women going from giving me several of those signals one day and the next day acting like I don't exist. And I've had a married MILF in her 40s at work choosing to sit next to me on a narrow couch, meaning that our thighs were in constant contact. I got semi-hard from her and was worried she'd see my bulge. I dunno man, all women seem to be very mentally unstable so it's very difficult to gauge this stuff.

I had a few "friends" in school, but we were never very close, and they all moved.

Or them just coming up to you and asking you out or saying you look good/cute, or saying they want to fuck you. Apparently this happens to Chads. I'm tall, but not Chad enough to be at that level, so I just get treated nicely but not nice enough to be 100% sure they're into me. I've read online about men who experienced the same things as me, decided to shoot their shot and got rejected.

Idk, I think there's a curse where you can look average and constantly have people talk to you if you have a high trust and friendly face.

I have seen women literally stop and stare at me longingly on a frequent basis and I'm still not gonna take initiative. Why should I? I'm a virgin and I'm totally fine with being one.
