    Some of them crave more attention than others because they are emotionally unstable and need to feel loved.

    We all want to be loved……. some ppl are just over their heads…..

    People run attention deficits from giving attention to others all the time. We constantly are watching TV, listening to teachers, listening to the radio, etc. We outflow attention all the time but hardly receive any and so people naturally grave attention to rebalance their psyches.

    because they are lacking something in their own makeup or person….

    Since the time we are babies, so much attention and love have been lavished, so most of us are used to them. Only those from very big families, who are independent or move around in the pursuit of their careers, are more self-reliant and do not crave it, to the point of obsession. Self-reliance makes for greater self-discipline, will-power, pride, focus on goals and happiness.

    Why did you post this question? To get our attention, or to be completely ignored?

    It’s human nature.

    Some are obsessive. Some are mild.

    Also human nature in it’s variations.

    Maybe they didn’t get enough attention when they were going through the “Mommy, watch me” stage of development.

    Because humans are social creatures.

    Why do other people shut everyone else out and go to extremes to make others feel unimportant?

    Because life is a mystery, and the body we’re living in sometimes grants us questions about ourselves. Then there is personality, and all along your life, but you don’t know if you’re living it right. So, attracting attention usually leads to judgement and opinions, which leads to the truth of who they are. I mean, how many times to do people ask, “who am I?”

    because otherwise they feel they do not exist. unless your ego gets a lot of attention you feel you are not existing and to the ego this is threatening, feels like death. doesn’t even matter if positive or negative attention as long as it is attention…
