Alright, I’ll be the first to admit that there are times I am in need of attention. We all get that way sometimes. But there’s a difference between occasionally looking for some attention and actively seeking attention at all times. We call these people Attention Whores. Sadly for some reason women are the ones that fall into this category (though I have met men who are equally if not more attention seeking than some women).
The thing is, there’s nothing wrong with a little bit of attention hogging, but constantly hanging out with an attention whore is bloody draining! You need to recognize the signs, son, because you need to catch this early, before you go down the rabbit hole. Here’s how to spot an attention whore:
Always needs to be in the center of it all
This girl is not going to be happy unless all attention is on her. She’s always dressed to attract attention, talking or laughing the loudest or doing things to keep all eyes on her. If for any reason someone else is getting more attention than her, she’ll try to steer the attention back to her somehow. It’s always fun to see two or more attention whores go at it at a party.
Selfies
How self-centered does one have to be to constantly be posting shots of oneself all over the Internet? “Wow, I look awesome! Let me just take a quick shot of myself, there. You’re welcome world!” Check out this great Selfie PSA by Olivia Munn. The worst are the fake self deprecating selfies, “OMG! I’m so fat! Lol!”, accompanied by a half nekkid hot selfie.
Her problem is everyone’s problem
Attention whoring is quite the artform. Sometimes her charm alone can’t keep the attention on herself, so she creates problems instead – and she’s not afraid to air it out everywhere and to anyone. Watch out for facebook updates designed to hook you in like, “So much for love,” or “Why can’t people just leave me alone?” or anything else that is vague and annoying.
Always fishing for compliments
Everyone likes to be complimented, but to an attention whore, life isn’t good unless someone is complimenting her. So she fishes for it, in subtle and not so subtle ways.
Cock teasing
And finally, cock teasing. Since they love any attention paid on them, even if it comes from a man they have no interest in, attention whores will never really say no to your advances, but continue you to tease you until you crack.
If you know someone or are seeing a girl like this, I suggest you cut your losses and leave now before you are in too deep. You know anyone like this?
