  • somewhere between a and b

  • Probably b. best describes me

    I like the idea of being liked but don't want it to be too obvious

  • f - someone who does things to draw attention to themselves, and then goes a bit weird and embarrassed when they get that attention

          Why are you telling us?

          monoshono @GayGuevara | 5 Jun '13, 16:29 | X
        • You always have to be the centre of attention

          Wherever we go.
          It's exhausting.

          meowington @GayGuevara | 5 Jun '13, 16:32 | X
  • Something of a D/C

    Don't like attention in public/from strangers, don't care particularly care regarding people I know.

  • I tend to not get on with attention seekers, either

    It just seems a bit childish to me. Toddler level stuff. Should probably have grown out of it by now, eh?

      • I dunno, I saw this YouTube clip of some really young kids covering Enter Sandman

        And I thought it was much better for not having Lars Ulrich gurning away in the background.

        Epimer @cat_race | 5 Jun '13, 16:47 | X
    • what would you suggest to people who haven't grown out of it?

      that they "grow up"?
      do you have any hints or tricks on how to "grow up"?

      alcxxk @Epimer | 5 Jun '13, 16:04 | X
      • learn to drive

        get a job in an office
        short back and sides
        get married
        get a mortgage (in the suburbs)
        read the papers on sundays
        complain about teenagers

      • make a conscious derive self esteem from less childish behaviours

        Weave a nice basket. Learn to imitate birdsong purely for your own satisfaction. Pleasure a pensioner. That sort of thing.

  • I'm gonna quibble with a)

    All attention seekers are, deep down, massively ashamed of themselves and their life choices. All of them. NO EXCEPTIONS.

    • all people you mean

      cat_race @DanielKelly | 5 Jun '13, 16:07 | X
      • At least 50% of us have to be attention givers though.

        Without attention givers, the system falls to shit.

        DanielKelly @cat_race | 5 Jun '13, 16:08 | X
        • i don't think it has to be zero sum

          seeking and receiving are not the same

          cat_race @DanielKelly | 5 Jun '13, 16:12 | X
  • Depends on where I am.

    I don't do that much attention-seeking on DiS and tend to hate attention-seeking at work but I'm a bit of an attention-seeker socially...

    Don't hate attention but really not a fan of it, i like to think i'm enigmatic and distinguished! :)
