If no one and nothing in the world could sense au perceive you, are wewe really real?

So essentially, wewe have a conscious, wewe can see everyone, wewe can walk and everything, but the world continues as if wewe arent there. wewe cant touch anything, people can walk right through you, no one can hear you, no one can see you.

If the world doesn't recognize your existence, does that invalidate the statement that wewe are real au does the basic singular recognition of self serve as enough to prove that wewe are real?

Is a response from the rest of the world / reality necessary to validate ones own existence au is just the presence of consciousness all that is needed?

I am sorry XD I was going to spam a lot of reality questioning maswali just to ramble about my view of reality and shit XD

Yes. Bacteria, microbes, viruses, atoms, etc. all exists but we can't perceive them without a use of a tool (although, I guess wewe can say they do make a difference in our world so we are able to witness some of the effects that they do). So I guess if I had a conscious but nobody can perceive me, I would be in a sense existing. Its just nothing around me has the tools to perceive me. Existing is like a truth, wewe don't need to believe the truth for it to be true, it will just be the truth regardless. Everyone may not know I exist, but it doesn't remove the fact that I do exist.
But I know your swali is zaidi of philosophical swali of what it means to exist. Do I need something physical in order to have a conscious? Do I need to be physical to exist? Idk, I just wanted to ground my answer.
