how do i get his attention?


Question Posted Tuesday November 11 2008, 2:41 pm

16/f

I am absolutley crazy about my boyfriend. And i think one of the reasons why is because he keeps he doesn't give me as much attention as i would like to have. Usually when me and a dude have a thing they always say sweet stuff or whatever and it gets boring but with him since he doesn't do it it makes me like him even more.
Is this weird? Also i want him to want me like i want him. I kinda want to make him jealous so he will give me more attention but im scared that he'll just be mad at me and then my plan with just fall apart.

I think you should either talk to him about it, try the guilt approach, or, as a last resort, try to make him jealous.

1. You can talk to him about it. He probably doesn't even realize he's doing it. However, a relationship in which you only like the person because you feel the need to capture their attention isn't exactly good. Maybe he isn't the right one for you? The only way to find out is to talk to him about it and see if he'll change for you and if you still like him just as much if he does give you attention.

2. The guilt approach. Go on a double date with another friend and his/her partner. Tell the guy, whether it's your friend's boyfriend or your friend, to be sweet to his girl friend when you all go out. Say sweet things out loud and act like he's having the time of his life. Now, when you're all on the date and that guy says sweet things, you can playfully tease your boyfriend and say "awwww, why don't you ever act like that/say those kind of things to me???". That'll either make him realize he's not giving you attention or make him feel guilty for not doing so.

3. LAST RESORT: make him jealous. The next time your boyfriend wants to hang out, say "Oh i'm sooo sorry! I already made plans to go to the movies with my friend (guy friend's name)!". If your boyfriend get's suspicious and starts asking questions, only answer a few. Then come up with an excuse to hang up/walk off. That'll leave him hanging and he'll be even more curious than before. If he DOES get mad and give up then that just proves he doesn't care enough about you to fight for you. I mean, you do have a good reason to attempt to make him jealous. If he had been giving you the attention you need, maybe you wouldn't have had to try to seek attention from other guys!

Hope I helped!
