how can u prevent yourself from becoming an attention-seeker?....seri... answers only!?


Question:
i'm in highschool and i'm quite attractive- i almost always have a bf and even if i don't i have quite a number of guys asking me out on dates. i am talkative but not loud. i get along with boys especially because i talk about things related to them as well. however, since of late, i realised that i get very upset if i see another girl who can come up to my standards- and that leads me to think that i might be an attention-seeker!! can anyone give me suggestions on how to prevent myself from becoming attention-seeker, because its not a good road to go down.
thank you in advance!

Answers:
First I see that you are humble and a polite person, those qualities take you several notches above the others. I'm thinking your parents should host parenting classes on how to raise children to be adults with manners and thoughtfulness. Bravo to them and kudos to you for choosing to be an aware and caring person.

I also see that your word choice is a little more sophisticated than your average high school student. So already on those counts you have great personal qualities that anyone should want to hang out with you. Are you the female version of Ferris Buehler?

The way not to be an attention hog is to love yourself and know that you are "all that and a bag of chips," and that you do not have to upstage anyone else to get attention. Being able to step to the side and allow others into the conversation and the limelight helps them grow into their adult selves as well. But just remember not all other students are as fair-minded as you indicate, and their teeth and claws can be mighty sharp.

Being secure about yourself seems to be the biggest hurdle here. Since you can already identify your feelings you're halfway to fixing the problem. If you can identify how you feel as it happens to you, you can make a decision to take the high road and do the most right thing. Other students will come into their own as time goes by and they learn to use make-up and dress appealingly. They might catch up and pass you by too. This is why a woman needs to have goals to work toward. We don't need to be the best cow in the barn to get picked to be breeding stock, we can own companies and invent cures for cancer.

Looks only take you so far, your kindness and concern for others will help you go further, and your education and drive will take you wherever you want to go. Learn to drive and leave the others in the dust.

Good luck to you!

Peace.
Let others have the limelight sometimes, just remember to share the floor
