Attention Attention Attention why do most people want so much attention placed on them? Is that a sign of a deep mental issue? If a grown-up is seeking attention is that a sign of immaturity? I was alwas taught if you're beautiful, handsome, talented etc ect let someone else tell you anything else can be borderline narcassistic. I can olny imagine it would be hard to be in a relationship with an attention seeker because the focus is always them.
