Feel like I've been grey rocked

[SaveMeNow2024]

So tonight I won an award. Not massively prestigious but it felt like a big deal to me. It was about effort and improvement, rather than achievement.
Nor one person in the room acknowledged it (about 80 people there, and i know most of them quite well).
Even the people on my table didn't say anything when I came back from the stage.
I said well done to the people who presented, which I think is just normal etiquette.
My family were not massively interested either, even though I came home with prizes and a trophy.
I tracked my progress for a year and thought I had 2nd or 3rd place so was so elated to come first. I don't usually win anything so it was quite special for me.
Am I unreasonable to feel very deflated?
There were other awards during the evening but this was the major one.

I'm very sorry you experienced this. Well done for all the work you undoubtedly put in to achieve this. As for the people at the same table and your family shame on them.

Well done OP.

Quite frankly it's disgraceful that nobody congratulated you. And your family should be ashamed of themselves.

CONGRATULATIONS!

i’m sorry about all the other idiots. You should feel very proud

I’m going to reframe this. At least one person in the room acknowledged it because they presented you the award. Did people applaud? This is YOUR achievement for YOU. Well done, you clearly deserve it 👏🏼 but for you to have been awarded it someone must have deemed you worthy, and you need to remember that.

Congratulations! That’s amazing! Well done you! Honestly just ignore people who are so thoughtless. And don’t let them dull your moment!

Very odd behaviour from the other not to even offer a personal congratulations and shocking none of your family made a big deal out of it. What is the matter with people these days??! What award was it for out of interest?

Disappointing that no-one acknowledged your award. But for what it's worth. CONGRATULATIONS!!!!

If there was applause when you collected your award, maybe peole assumed that was their congratulations to you.

Congratulations- tell us more if not outing about what you got your award for. You should be really proud.
yanbu to be deeply disappointed in the lackluster response from those in the room with you!

Congratulations!

People suck sometimes.

It was for running events

Jealousy from work collegues! And unthoughtfulness from family.

Congrats though, well done and sod them. Give yourself a celebratory hug!

Blimey I can't believe none of your family made a big deal out of your running award. Massive well done you. Honestly I don't understand what's wrong with people these days.

was if running events as in running or was it running as in organising events?

Well done! 👏

Absolutely no one has congratulated you? What a very odd situation.That's shocking..

This! 🥰

Well done @SaveMeNow2024

Don’t let other people spoil your achievement 👏

Well done OP and rightly feel proud of yourself! You earned this, enjoy it and fuck everyone else

Strange behaviour. Especially from family! I understand that you feel hurt. Could you tell them that you felt disappointed that none of them acknowledged it?

Congratulations! 🎉

🥇

Nice job.

I can see the room not saying more if they applauded but you family not doing a bit of gushing is weird.

Jealousy.

I would be disappointed too, OP. Especially with friends and family. Are they generally a negative lot?

Why would it be jealousy do you know these people wanted to win the award?

Some people find it difficult to take pleasure in the achievements of others when those achievements are due to hard work over and above what the average person is willing to do.

That’s it then OP…every single person, including your family, are jealous. Everyone else wanted to win that award….🤷🏼‍♀️ Well done anyway!
