The other day chopstick posted this about you.
Even if you don't think you are constantly seeking attention here, you do have a tendency to be a little dramatic, as noted by this poster:
Ok. Yes, here I have attention whored......a lot. To be honest, I have never ever really had any type of attention irl and I liked having attention for the first time even though it was negative. Having attention was something I've really never felt before.
But irl I'm not theatrical, or dress for attention, or dramatic.
I have a quiet, calm demenor.
I don't think I have this because my sister does and we are total opposite socially. Any family event, birthdays, Holliday's, baby showers, she comes in and everything instantly has to be all about her. She's loud and obnoxious and won't let the attention be on anyone else. She turns all conversations about her (not how I repeatedly talk about my problems here). If someone is talking about their pregnancy, she cuts them off and starts talking about when she was pregnant. She's always trying to video everyone as well. If anyone tries to say anything to her, she gets mad and acts like that person is so mean and hurt her fealings so bad and she storms out. Like she literally takes over everything. I've tried to talk to her about it before, I'll calm tell her "This is Amy's baby shower, she's excited, let her open her presents and talk" or "Sara planned this party and you hurt her feelings coming in and dictating what we were going to do and changing the decorations, I know you are trying to help, but you are taking away the enjoyment of her doing it"
