Would you date an attention seeker?

[Finchie40]

An attention seeker is someone that seeks validations constantly from others, that wants to be the center of attention and pretty much everything is me me me , Would you date someone that had that mindset or would you be turned off?

[sage2021]

No, been there, done that, and it just stopped in September. Call them attention seekers, I call them energy sucker's!

He literally wore me out and I didn't have time for my own thoughts. He was like having a child because of his ADHD.
Not only do they thrive for attention, they don't watch what they're doing and break your stuff which includes your cellphone. Oh yes! Now instead of paying 0 I pay $50 a month because of him
Be sure to baby proof your living space, because it won't look the same after he thinks things could go THIS way instead of the way YOU have it.
🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

I have never dated an attention seeker and I will not be friends with an attention seeker cause they do not value you or your feelings or needs, only how you can support their feelings and needs and interests. I work hard and I believe I deserve at least a little recognition even if it's just a one or two sentence acknowledgement and I've met time draining people who won't even give you space to talk when they are in the discussion room.

[Kaneki05]

Yeah that don't bother me might even be the thing that attracted me to her in the first place.
Because she would be confident to always say and do something and making her the only girl I see as she wanting to get attention from me which if I like her I will give and then next thing ya know she likes me because I give her that attention. It works.

[Socaljp]

Oh she gonna want attention from you, and everybody else that comes near her. That's the problem is that the attention of one person is never enough.

[Kaneki05]

That don't mean she can't have a favourite person. You might want attention from all 10 of your friends but you still have your best friend there. Attention seekers for sure get partners and have best-friends.
Or do you really think attention seekers never have a best friend and have never seen any in relationship... because I have tons of times.

I've also already been with attention seeker before, and been friends with them so I don't know maybe you know something I don't but from what I've seen they still can have one person they like the most it's not impossible to them.

[Leapfrog00]

I've dated a couple girls like that. Honestly, people like that are a handful. They often play the victim. If you get in an argument, you're at fault, regardless of who started it

Now if a girl is a free spirit, who looks like she craves attention but doesn't, I have no problem with that. Free spirits are so much fun.

[Bethany22]

It depends on how they seek attention. If it's just that they're trying to be memorable to people in order to create loyalty in their friends, I might be understanding.

[Finchie40]

Understandable, but most attention seekers sadly can’t be trusted , especially in a committed relationship , especially if they can’t make you their top priority. Attention seekers usually prioritize everyone else but their partner , they make everything about themselves and they don’t really factor in their partners’ feelings , it’s whatever is best for themselves , Having that type of mindset isn’t going to last the long haul in a relationship because it’s a selfish mindset

[KrakenAttackin]

Oh come on. Attention whoring is attention whoring.

[Finchie40]

LOL Exactly , they are a whore period , just make sure you double wrap that shit lol

[KrakenAttackin]

Attention seeking women always have one foot out of the door and will bolt when Chad texts "wyd".

[SolsticeSnow]

No. Chances are they are an overt narcissist. Or some sort of histrionic.

I wouldn't even have such a person in my friend group. Heck I wouldn't even stay close to friends who were close to this person.

They're bad news and they wreck lives around them with drama, deciet and mind games.

[Finchie40]

Absolutely correct

[Flatmanlewis]

It depends on how they manifest it. Dolly Parton’s husband is a ‘regular Joe’ and shuns the spotlight while his wife is a superstar. Somehow they are completely compatible and have clear longevity. If whomever I’m with is an attention seeker but manifests it in a positive manner I’m okay with it.

[wolfcat87]

Yes, I would and I have. They've actually been really attentive and caring. They are just insecure and need extra care.

[Finchie40]

I have as well , and it was the worst relationship I ever been in , mainly because of their insecurities , they seek attention and validation from others because they are afraid you are going to leave them for someone else , but the reality of it is , they are already cheating or planning to cheat on you because they are afraid you will beat them to it

[wolfcat87]

That happens, but it doesn't mean they are all like that.

[fatcat700592]

I am dating someone like that. He isn't completely me me me though. And I don't mind it usually because I love doing stuff for him and making him happy with attention. He loves getting attention and I love giving it

[Joshydavid25]

It was gonna say no.. But it depends on how bad of an attention seeker they are.. I'm still leaning towards no.. But, If they are just insecure, and deep down just need some love.. Well, it's something to think about..

[lightbulb27]

Blech… no. Id wonder what they sre like at home and if they can stand being in their own space.
Not me

[BoopBoopBeep]

I think i'd sooner date a professional escort

[SportySpock]

Turn off. Absolutely not. They’re insecure too

[Akothee005]

No I can't because they never bother about someone else rather than theme

[KrakenAttackin]

Pretty much every women is an attention seeker these days. As @dextroshade said, recreational use only.

[Finchie40]

Yes a lot of women are these days and there are a lot of guys’ that are the same way as well. It mainly stems down to selfishness, which everyone of us has selfishness inside ourselves , if you can’t remove selfishness for your partner , don’t expect them to remove it for you , it needs to go both ways or that relationship is just a waste of time , Basically thank you for a good time but not a long time. For love to grow between 2 people , you both have to remove selfishness for
Each other and from yourself as well , It’s ok to be wrong , we aren’t perfect people , but what’s important is admitting your wrong , and that’s what so many people have trouble with , it’s always someone else’s’ fault , usually the partner gets fingers pointed at first, instead of pointing fingers at themselves first. If you can’t wear your partner’s shoes before making decisions, don’t expect your partner to do that for you. Your partner should be your top priority over everyone else, if they aren’t then don’t be surprised when they walk away or Meet someone else , you basically dug your own grave. That love you once shared together is now over , because you chose to be selfish instead of choosing your partner.

[DarkWinterNights]

I’m starting to realize I have a lot of dealbreakers.

[CallmeTheKnight]

No I wouldn’t. Attention seekers are also problem seekers.

[Imaguyandagirl]

No my friend did it and as soon as she found a guy that gives more attention she's gone

[Lizzybabe11]

Pls can you share your email to me or you WhatsApp number let’s know more about each other

[Anonymous]

Nope.
Ever hear of Münchausen syndrome by proxy.

[litty736]

Attention seekers are deal breakers. I find these people to be very insecure within themselves, proactively seeking validation from other people

[whereismyjohnny]

Absolutely not.

[Jmmmfi4]

YOU MEAN A FEMALE? YES

[rosemilk]

nah that seems exhausting

[Finchie40]

I agree

[LazerBean]

No, they're annoying and obnoxious

[Finchie40]

I agree lol
