This happens all the time, but people will not admit it because it makes them look like idiots. |
Fawn is bad word choice. How about simple things like—
Laugh at their jokes? Agreeable to their opinions? Smile when you see them? Make effort to make conversation with them? Watch them when they’re in the room? Admire their clothing? Wish you were included in their plans? |
No. But I am still sometimes the person being fawned over.
It's very uncomfortable and I dislike it immensely. Some people enjoy it but I don't and here's why-I got enough love and attention as a child that I don't feel like I "need" it for validation now. People who never had this experience with attention don't seem to get it. People project a lot onto you. It's very odd. In fact, the amount of attention I received in my teens and early-mid 20's in particular was overwhelming. Following a sexual assault incident (by a coworker) I purposefully avoid people who are overly taken by my appearance. It can be isolating and harder to tell who real friends are. I end the relationship if they are so focused on my appearance that I am not a real person to them. I'm really sick of being treated as a doll or being the target of other women's' ire. |
I remember buying something ages ago with a really attractive friend and the guy behind the counter was falling over himself to help her. We were laughing at him, it looked so stupid.
I don't care about people's looks, really don't care however I will fawn over cute puppies and dogs while out walking. |
Super attractive guy here. Just telling it like it is. People don't fawn over me. They actually act timid. It's annoying. Just be you. |
It doesn't really cross my mind, but you can't deny that there is something appealing about attractive people. Sometimes it's important to see through that veneer and figure out what type of person they are though, which is far more important in my book. Especially when it comes to other parents or people that my children might be spending time around. |
No.
When I was younger, teens to mid twenties, yes. And by that point realized that some of the"attractive" people weren't so attractive on the inside. My family are all conditioned to fawn over people who looks stylish and are thin. I don't get people who do this after they have some life experience. |
