Well check this out:

1. If i don't exist , the people who do exist cannot see me

2. If i do exist, i cannot see the people who don't

3. Therfore, if i don't exist i can only see the people who don't exist

So existing or not, we can all live in a reality world as existing or non-existing

===== ===== ===== ===== ===== ===== =====
Before I Go on, the definitive answer for me (based
on the way I have interpreted the question) is YES !!!.
===== ===== ===== ===== ===== ===== =====
But, There's More Than one answer: (Because Of The limited Specificity Of The Question):- YES, POSSIBLY NOT or NO.
------------------
Explanation :-
------------------
1):- Existence is a human word, definition & concept used to
describe the state of entities like, well for one, humans
Wikipedia says that there is no universally accepted definition
for existence. I know that I as a pysical entity I fit well within
at Least One Definition, So YES I Exist.
------ ------ ------
-That's Definite when the question is Taken in a physical context.
"Physical Presence" is a Human concept which is a
Definite area of (I would assert) nearly all (if not all) definitions of
Existence.
Even if the definition of "physical" changes or becomes
indefinable, this doesn't make a lick of difference to the definition
of Existence.
(Because a physcal entity (Like Me) is described by the definition of "Physical", different interpretations and changes to the definition don't make the entity
(eg. me, because my body is as physical as it gets)
any less "physical" thus me "Existing" doesn't change.
------ ------ ------
2):- If I'm taking the question (for example) as; Do "I" Exist in
terms of Ones Self Awareness, Spiritual presence, afterlife
And/Or Soul (Especially), Then POSSIBLY NOT- (These
CAN All Exist because they are all human concepts too.but
they're Not as Definite as The Physical Concept of
Existence.)

3):-The above ideas of soul, afterlife, self
awareness, & spiritual presence, could actually be just
functions/mechanics/chemistry of the brain and or Body. If
So (and one takes the question in these non physical terms
only) Then POSSIBLY NOT again or more likely, just NO.

On the law of averages, no.

Out of the universe only 5% is matter, so we are 95% nothing, so therefore on the law of averages we don't exist.

Most of the time we know we exist . The rest of the remaining time we dont know we exist.
And some one looking at your house with you in it, from a long distant planet would not know you exist at all;since your house would appear to be the size of a virus.

Only until someone can prove to me that I don't.

But who's going to waste time trying to prove non-existence to something that doesn't exist anyway?

I think I am, so I am in my mind, but who knows if I am in anyone else's mind? Maybe I am a random thought in a nightmare of whatever is doing the dreaming ;)

Not necessarily. Only God exists necessarily.
