  1. You’re obsessed with makeup.
  2. Or clothes.
  3. Or both.
  4. You basically love anything that can make you look prettier and, therefore, get you more stares from male passersby.
  5. This includes short skirts, boob-y tops, and high heels.
  6. Anytime anyone near you pulls out a camera, you immediately stop what you’re doing and strike a pose.
  7. You do it for the ‘gram.
  8. But mostly for the likes.
  9. You’re the loudest one of all your friends.
  10. Because let’s face it, in a circle of gossipy girls who are constantly talking over each other, the loudest one always wins.
  11. Speaking of your friends, you have a ton of them.
  12. You love going out in a big group because it’s always more fun.
  13. Oh, and you’re a total party girl.
  14. Not just a party girl — THE party girl.
  15. You’re known for being the drunkest, most outrageous, most fun one of the group.
  16. Basically, you just want everyone to be talking about you the next day.
  17. There isn’t a table you haven’t danced on or a shot you haven’t taken.
  18. Your attention whore-ness triples when anyone with a penis is near.
  19. You also get incredibly jealous if he starts paying attention to another girl.
  20. You’ve flashed your tits before.
  21. You’ve flashed your tits while INSIDE a bar before.
  22. You might not be an actual slut, but you sure love to act like one.
  23. You have absolutely zero shame and zero regrets.
  24. You’ll send Snapchat nudes just to get that “you’re so hot baby” snap back, but when he asks you to come over you politely decline.
  25. You’re a tease.
  26. You don’t ignore guys who show an interest in you even if you have absolutely no interest in them — you egg them on.
  27. Like the old saying goes, “any attention is good attention.”
  28. You might complain to your friends about how annoying it is when a certain guy texts you all the time and acts desperate, but that doesn’t mean you don’t text him back and get him to tell you how amazing and beautiful you are.
  29. You enjoy being single more than being in a relationship because you’d rather have the attention of a lot of guys rather than just one.
  30. You’ve always been a little rebellious.
  31. Nothing bad, just your typical sneaking out, meeting up with boys, having sex things that teenagers do.
  32. You used to be a dancer or a cheerleader, which is where one might assume your attention whore tendencies started.
  33. Anytime a dance circle opens up, you throw yourself in the middle of it.
  34. You might not be the best dancer, but that doesn’t matter as long as all eyes are on you.
  35. You’re always fishing for compliments.
  36. You’ll post a bikini pic with the caption “Look, a beached whale!” just to have all your followers tell you how skinny and hot you are.
  37. Or caption a selfie with “UGH I’m so ugly,” even though you wouldn’t have put it on your story if you knew you didn’t look good.
  38. Boundaries? What are boundaries?
  39. You’re an open book. You’ll tell anyone anything they want to hear.
  40. You have no problem talking about your first hard breakup, your “number,” and your daddy issues. As long as the attention always remains right where it belongs — on you.
  41. You have a ton of followers on all your social media accounts.
  42. The more people paying attention to you, the better.
  43. You tweet so much and post so many pictures that you’re basically your own paparazzi.
  44. When you’re sad or lonely or angry, you expect everyone you know to drop what they’re doing and pay attention to you.
  45. Usually by posting a tweet like “I should’ve never trusted him,” or “LOL dying alone single forever”
  46. You love getting sympathy from others as much as you love getting praise.
  47. You flaunt your problems and shortcomings just to get people to build you back up.
  48. You always bring any conversation going on back to you.
  49. “My aunt just found out she has stage four liver cancer.”
  50. You have a Tinder just so boys will tell you you’re pretty.
  51. You prefer the front-facing camera because why would you ever need to look at anything else?
  52. You’re snapchat story is always 90 percent selfies, 10 percent videos of you dancing.
  53. You love drama.
  54. Even if the drama isn’t about you, somehow you make it about you.
  55. Your ego is huge but fragile.
  56. If someone calls you out for your attention-whoring behavior, you’re quick to get defensive.
  57. But if your friends are your true friends, they’ll love you anyway — even more than you love yourself.
