| padib said: Can someone explain the difference between someone seeking attention and someone seeking to bond or connect with another person? And I mean only from an appearance point of view. Is it possible to actually be able to tell at all times if a person is seeking attention or if they just want to bond with a fellow person? Of course it is possible that even a simple hello could be attention seeking, but that is at the level of intentions, which usually are invisible. Without knowing the intentions of a person, is it fair to say they are seeking attention in a case where it might not be possible to say since the behavior is not conclusive? (E.g. a simple hello) And some might say that judging intentions depends on prior behavior, but what if people change or what if their intentions change? |
Do neither.
There is no trying, you will be friends with the people that you suppose to be friends, you will bond with the people you suppose to.
If you have to try, then you are trying too hard.
Just live and let the chips fall where they may.
