[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We’ve all got those friends in our circle.  They love male attention and are often over the top in how they go about getting it.

No name calling or negative posts please - I’d really like to understand.[/quote]

Why not ask the friends in your circle why they need attention and are so over the top in pursuit of it?[/quote]

Because I don’t want to offend them and I’m not sure they’d have an answer.[/quote]

Look at it this way.  Let's say you had friends in your circle who were alcoholics and wanted to understand.
Well...some people turn to alcohol to relieve stress.  Some people began drinking at an early age and developed an alcohol problem or a physical dependence on alcohol as they get older.  Some people turn to alcohol when feeling anxious or depressed.  Some people have a parent or other relative who was an alcoholic.  
In other words there are a number of factors/reasons as to why some people are alcoholics - varies from individual to individual.  
Same rule of thumb applies to excessive attention seeking behavior - varies from individual to individual.
If you want to truly understand what issues/factors are the at the root of your friends behavior then you need to ask those individuals.
If you're truly a friend then offending them is the last thing you should be worried about.  Helping them should be your main motivation.[/quote]

OP here:  Thanks  for the reply.

I don’t see their need for attention as something that needs to be treated - it’s just part of their personality.[/quote]
