[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When I used to go out (I have 2 kids and currently pregnant with #3 so don’t go out much), I used to love male attention and I used to get it a lot. I don’t have any trauma, but I am very sexual and it feels/felt great to have a man wanting you. It’s not a competition for me. Also, somehow, I always got a lot of attention without trying...[/quote]

Just curious. Was your father in the home? A workaholic? Affectionate or aloof? How would you describe your home life as a child? Was Mom around? Did any provider travel a lot, military? Maybe a childhood boyfriend that cheated and broke your heart while you were still a virgin?

No matter what, no judgment at all from me. Just curious. Is it possible some past experience (nurture) impacted this personality (nature)? [/quote]

Nope to anything you mentioned. Have a great dad whom a had a great job and basically never drank. Mom worked and was successful, but still loving and present. Neither was a workaholic. I did have several boyfriends, but none broke up my heart. Some were sad breakups of course, but nobody betrayed me (that I am aware of). Some people are just more sexual than other and lead with their sexuality when they first meet someone. I think men can perhaps sense that and are attracted to that? 
It does not hurt that people (men and women) regard me as very attractive and naturally fit, but I don’t think this is the reason why I get/got more attention when out[/quote]

I think you are confusing getting attention with thriving on attention.

I get tons of attention, I don't really want the attentions. I get it... I'm good looking and sexy but I really don't appreciate the staring, I find it creepy... you find it self affirming. The question is why do you like to get your affirmations from strangers. [/quote]

I don’t find it creepy nor self affirming. I don’t NEED The attention and I don’t do anything to invite it (maybe I look a bit more in a certain direction). I would never do something like was mentioned above. However I am very sexual and I love the feeling of being close to a man that wants you. The tease and all that goes with it. I don’t mind men saying something on the street, but I don’t love it or care for it either. I am happily married and I don’t need anybody else’s attention to make me feel beautiful, but even with my husband I love feeling that he can’t keep his hands away from me... I don’t know if I am making sense. It has nothing to do with self affirmation and all to do with sex and sexuality[/quote]

Why are you answering the question? The question is "high need for attention". Me thinks you are higher need than you think. This thread is not about you, or is it. [/quote]
