She explained that she had consistently made an effort to support others during their important milestones.

She felt that the same level of care and presence was not extended to her when it mattered most.

Her account centred on the contrast between how she showed up for friends and family and how she was left alone during her own achievement.

She also indicated that this was not the first time she had experienced a similar lack of attention, and she described a recurring pattern in which her situation seemed to be overlooked.

@Okhihie Isibor said:

"Are those of us who have never had anyone show up for us from primary, secondary and higher institutions damaged in some ways? because I don't even take these things to heart."

@Mizlee added:

"So sorry sister, Next time, try attending a smaller church and let them know about your special occasion ahead of time. Get involved, build genuine friendships, especially with people from your home country, and make meaningful connections. I remember taking jollof rice and cake to a friend's graduation because all of her family were back home in Nigeria. I went with my children and two of my friends just to celebrate and support her. She was overjoyed and deeply touched. Sometimes, it's not about the size of the crowd but the love and support you receive from the people around you. Build your community you'll never regret it."
