8 traits of attention seekers on social media

Social media platforms like instagram and facebook are an attention seekers paradise.These platforms are replete with lonely people who will engage with anything that shows up in their feed-all they need is to be stimulated.Further, some people have a habit of pressing like or heart button whenever they see a new post .This makes things fantastic for those seeking attention.

The attention seeker comes in various forms-the over-sexed model in bikini pictures, the innocent girl pouting on a bad day, the gym rat showing off his muscles, the innocent girl sharing all her food pictures, the nerd getting photographed with the celebrity and so on.Those who seek validation to excessive levels often like their own posts or pictures by themselves as well.

The following are the most common traits of attention seekers:

  1. Posting multiple times a day
  2. Posting provocative stuff 
  3. Urging engagement/comments
  4. Posting something negative like "I know i look like a dork in this pair of glasses" wherein everyone will comment saying "No, you look fab"
  5. Liking own posts
  6. Replying to every comment with a heart
  7. Posting every detail of their life /having no boundaries
  8. Posting "grander than real " life details -exotic holiday locations, restaurants,high flying parties when they might not be real
