    How much is too much? You know where it becomes smothering or annoying....

    How much is too little? You know where it starts to feel lonely or depressing....

    Does it vary by circumstance? Like maybe at parties you love attention but at formal events you despise it?

    How deep is your affection for attention?

    This is a GREAT question Nila, depends on the situation, myself being a gemini i go from one extreme to another. Sometimes i LOVE attention, and sometimes i don't.....it really depends on the setting, for example when i'm wrestling at a show i like attention i like meeting the fans knowing that they enjoy what i did in the ring, HOWEVER if i'm at walmart or at the bar with my friends and fans come up to me asking me questions like is that real blood how do you do that so on and so fourth it gets OLD.

    I take a big helping and go back for seconds but try not to be desperate about it.

    it depends entirely on my mood. which can be a problem if i'm at a party and just want to be left alone, or even worse if i'm home alone and desperately want someone to talk to...



    basically, i don't normally like attention, but i have to have at least a little every day or i get sad...

    i'm hard to please :confused:

    you can have seconds thirds fourths well untill one of us gets bored *L*. OR untill you realise i have a small penis and laugh yourself out of the bedroom, which ever happens first.

    hmm this is a tough one. i feel like i need attention from the people that are close to me. like my family and friends. however i hate any other form of attention. i hate crowds of people. i hate being hit on. i hate having the focus on me. my parents are throwing me a grad party and i soo dont wanna go.

    i have this one girlfriend that hella wants to be famous because she loves attention. she sleeps with people for attention and wherever she goes she is loud and obnoxious and every party she is at she is all up on the tables dancing like a hoe. i almost dont like going in public with her for that reason

    I prefer not to be the centre of attention, but I like to have my shine in the sun every now and then.

    attention is for lame-o's....I don't do attention very well, I enjoy being in the background most my life... It suites me better, besides only supreme elite badasses fall behind and let the lame-o's take the lead...

    Yeah, I figured I knew your answer before you got here.

    I'm not going to lie when I say there is no scenario in which I don't love attention, but I don't like a lot of attention all of the time. I highly value my quiet and personal time, but when I do want attention, I want a lot of it. Like ALL of it.

    I try not to overplay it, but I always end up the center of attention.

    I must love it.

    As much as possible!

    ..kidding.I actually am a bit uncomfortable getting too much attention. It varies far too much -depending on the circumstance and the person(s) the attention is coming from,the reason i have their attention,and how they show it.

    I act more the strong silent type in real life.

    But after a few minutes of boredom I go straight for the jokes, retelling intresting stories, and the like.

    I'm kind of the same way, lode.

    I'm really approachable and friendly. I don't steal anyone's spotlight in real life, but when I stand out and get some attention, I can easily pass it off to the person beside me.

    all of it, obviously. until i don't want it. which is a completely arbitrary thing that i decide whenever i feel like it.

    haha. You and I decide it's time for attention to stop the same way. On a whim. People get annoyed with me badly because of it.
