Okay...Im not depressed but I didnt know really what catagory this would fit under..Okay I have a problem of doing specific things just to tell someone later I did them so they feel sorry for me...I dont notice Im doin it until its already over or Im in the middle of doing it..And the main person I do it to is my boyfriend...and I feel bad because he treats me wonderful...but like I will cry over something that he did not purposely tryin to hurt my feelings like something he cant help and I cry because it really does hurt my feelings but I sit there and think as Im crying about how Im going to hint around to him that I was crying... Or another example I have journal when Im writing in it and he gets brought up sometimes I will go on and on about how great he is and purposely leave it open so he will read it...and also when he hurts my feelings and Im writing in it I purporsely leave it open...I dont know what to do..I feel stupid telling someone I know cause it makes me sound really desperate and werid but I honestly dont mean to do it and like I said before I dont notice it until its half way over with...any ideas?

Whats wrong with me?

... ... ... ... It kinda sounds like something my ex would do... ... ... ... When we used to hang out she'd always complain about all the drama in her life. When I think back on it, I realize that she creates all the drama. A bunch of people told me the reason she didn't want to be with me is because she couldn't handle having no drama. As for the solution... ... ... ... I don't know. I don't hang out with her anymore cuz it seems that's what she wants.

Well with me Im in love with my boyfriend and I dont want to leave him.. it just seems like I desperatly need sympathy and I dont know why because I have great life,friends,family, and everything and I just want this to stop

That teaches me something, SimplePlanChic. Usually when I think "he/she is just trying to get attention", I think it's either someone who gets very little attention, or it's someone who is spoilt and thinks the world revolves around him/her - I hadn't thought that the person doing it might not want to do it.
-
Well I do think alot of people do do that also...
-
yeah. The ex kept telling me she didn't want drama in her life, yet she created it ... so i know what you're saying. I wish I knew how to help.

You're not the only girl that has done that in life. Believe me, MANY girls do that to guys. I think that just subconsciously you crave even more attention than you are already getting from your boyfriend, and that your superego just wants you to gain all of the attention possible from your b/f. many girls that i even know do that frequently.

That kind of bothers me. I would rather give my girl attention by her saying something like hold me, or hug me, or something of that nature rather than create drama.
