Question

When girls post a lot on social media, do they come off as needy or seeking validation?

loveslongnails · Answer

Who is that a picture of? Anyway, the amount of posting a girl does to social media is directly related to how vapid she is! Excessive posting to social media means you have nothing better to do with your time, therefore not a lot to offer.

DJtheDJ · Answer

I believe girls post a lot online, not because they need validation or are being needy, but instead as a way to express themselves.

Jaybear0123 · Answer

It depends on what she writes. And, sometimes people might think she is conceded but just the people who don't know you very well

PinkandSparkles · Answer

People that post every single thing they do or nothing but selfies gets on my nerves. Absolutely it comes off as being attention seeking.

Anonymous · Answer

I used to post selfies but not anymore i deleted all my pictures and i don't share my life on social media as i find it silly for people i don't know to know details about my life

Robert94 · Answer

Depends on what they post, if they are backpacking in a third world country I like it. If they only post selfies it comes off as needy, egocentric, dull and vain.

larnski · Answer

I think it depends on the girl! There’s no one answer you can apply to every single female who has social media lol

LuWe22 · Answer

Yes. I think so and they try to fish for compliments to feel better about themself. Selfies with the caption "OMG so ugly right now" or "Just a quick Selfie. I know It's not good"

pluere · Answer

Yes, I find this very off-putting. Think of how much validation you would need to give them on a daily basis. If exhausting.

Peopleschamp · Answer

Yes, but there is always going to be the desperate "wow girl you are absolutely gorgeous" type of dudes in the comments so why would they stop? Of course they love the attention

10dsw · Answer

(1) Needy (2) Vapid/basic (3) Simplistic (4) Reliant on others for validation (5) Mentally ill... I could go on =P

femme_A · Answer

Yes, we post selfies when we want validation. But nothing wrong with posting selfies. It's a sign of confidence.

chilln · Answer

It's nothing to trip on at all it's no big deal just keep being cool. It's the confidence that attracts Beauty

SeattleMexican · Answer

If the girl is hot then it comes off as she's slutty or fake if the girl is fat or ugly it comes off is there an insecure loser

mac_daddy416 · Answer

Nothing wrong with woman being needy. As well as attention seeking that's what make them woman. Why should they apologize for what they are suppose be. No one needs to validate their emotional needs. They are just sharing their stories.

Silver158 · Answer

yup. Got a friend on facebook that whenever she's going on a night out or has makeup on for some reason she'll post 20+ selfies easily. It's like "The makeup is on so bring on the likes"

Jmcmanning · Answer

Depends on their age, what they are posting and exactly how much is a lot

GingerGuy · Answer

My thoughts are just want attention, bored maybe? But also "normal". There are a lot of women like this, so much that to me, it's "normal" for them.

CheckPlease · Answer

Na just girls that want attention and who have awful photo taking skills.

ghostqueen · Answer

Her hair is on point. Needy for validation, yes. Anyone who does it gives off that vibe.

ScarletAngelic · Answer

Well for me it comes off as fun. It would love a girlfriend who posts a ton of pictures and we could post a ton together ^^

willbesavage · Answer

It really just depends on the caption of the post, and girls say nice things on other girls posts no matter what, a guy leaves a comment on another guys post saying “you an ugly ass n****

jessture · Answer

Let's just say I know someone that posts constant pics involving her very exposed cleavage. So yes.

DNB1994 · Answer

Yes. I think it’s honestly annoying. Also I’d prefer to be in a relationship with someone privately. I don’t brag about a girl on my arm. That’s incredibly cruel to other people who are single.

I’m very descriptive in my answers. Sorry.

Anonymous · Answer

Depends on what they put on there. Your latest trip to Sydney? Fine. 98 percent of what I see are just their latest 176 photos of their bitch face or their expanded butt in tights. Over. And over. And over. And over.

GoodGuyBreakingBad · Answer

Their just girls who are jealous of each other. I don't see them coming off as needy or needing validation.

Ndifreke · Answer

I think it seems narcissistic but it depends on the content of the posts

sypher0316 · Answer

It just makes you look like you don't care about what's going on around you cus you're sucked into your phone all day

Renzo11 · Answer

Generally yes. Seeking attention, being addicted to that attention. If i see someone contantly on their phone i am disinterested immediately.

PillowThief · Answer

Validation mostly. Some people have a clear vanity complex, though.

ObsidianNuLL · Answer

If there's always clickbaity captions yes. If it's just genuinely posting pictures to post pictures, then no.

Anonymous · Answer

Not necessarily, it depends, maybe you have a lot of friends or followers who want to see updates from you and you feel like you have to post, but it's fun at the same time ✌

N23SA · Answer

That is a good question. I guess it depends; if they constantly post selfies with some narcissistic caption, then my answer would be yes

Sana1995 · Answer

It really depends what they're posting about on there, for some it could be none of that.

gclark2708 · Answer

Yes if it's constant selfies, if they're with their friends doing something then they just come across as documenting their life cause they enjoy it which is better

BigJake · Answer

They come off as self-involved more than anything. I'm very skeptical of girls who post constantly, especially when it's selfies in skimpy outfits or bikinis.

Coconut_Man · Answer

It depends on what they post. If it's 90% half naked pics, then I would think they are looking for attention. But if it's just regular pictures I wouldn't really see an issue.

bubble_tea · Answer

Maybe they do it because their followers asked them to 🤷‍♀️

Miristheiss · Answer

Sometimes yes. Maybe not in every circumstance but many times, to me, they do.

r4ngeF · Answer

And much much more than "Needy" or "Seeking validation".

Kenni · Answer

Especially when it's pictures like these, constantly, everyday.

effyourfeelings · Answer

No Not to me They like being open and doing whatever they want on their social media

Cosytoasty · Answer

If it’s all pictures of themselves yes. If it’s pictures of other things no

lovelyhoneybones · Answer

They just think they look good. That's when I post pictures, has nothing to do with validation.

Anonymous · Answer

if they post a lot of photos of just themselves they come off as needed to be complimented all the time

Fukaroo · Answer

We don't talk to those socio bitches where I come from unless you want some dome-quick with your spaghetti.

joshrafiki · Answer

If it's about their self and me me me me blah blah blah then yes. But if it's other more inclusive then no, just that type

Anonymous · Answer

I don't see why men think girls post on social media because they need validation. Like I could be having a good hair or make up day and I'll take loads of photos and I'll upload them because I'm feeling great about myself, not because I'm needy.

PaulSkyline · Answer

I'm not psicologist yet but could be for seeking validation, for some kind of loneliness, social media addiction...

antonio_2017 · Answer

Yes we all no you have fashion and are beautiful what more do you want. I dislike those kind of girls.

TheButterfly · Answer

Depends on what it is. Really all I post is my cat, college, or the occasional (yet shamelessly seeking validation) photo

Anonymous · Answer

I believe posting is a way of being social, it doesn't show any sort of need or seeking attention, you post what you like to share with others. It doesn't matter if a girl posts a lot or less, it's up to her I guess how much she wants to post.

lordhossein · Answer

i don't think so, they just wanna show they are better than other girls and have more fun. so i don't think they do it to attract men although sometimes it has that effect

HawkInTheSky · Answer

Personally I think it depends on the types of posts and the captions. If it's a shit ton of selfies with small insignificant captions, then yes... to be honest it comes across as needy.

Anonymous · Answer

More like I see them as validated and having there needs met. Thus they don’t need me or want my attention.

Anonymous · Answer

Yes. I don't date women that are constantly on social media and snapchat everything. There are somethings that people need to learn to keep to themselves.

sc15022 · Answer

Girls are naturally attention whores so I'd say maybe, depends on what they post and how often it is

Anonymous · Answer

For an ego boost. And do you post a lot yourself? Why? Why not?

mike5150 · Answer

Sometimes it really depends like if there posting tons of selfies a day I would say so.

ClearCyan · Answer

Only if the posts are selfies. If they have content relevant to anything else this isn't the case.
