What Causes Obsessions For Girls And Luxuries?

I find myself obsessing about having things like a nice car, looking smart (shave, hairstyle), dressing properly and maintaing a calm composure purely to be given attention by girls. I am a good looking guy, i know that, yet I crave that attention from girls; especially ones that I used to know, as it gives me that self satisfaction/acknowledgement that i crave. Why is this?

Psychiatrist, Dr. Abhishek Kapoor's Response

Hi
Thanks for using healthcare magic

I think, you have histrionic or borderline personality traits. In histrionic personality, people want attention from opposite sex or want to remain center of attraction. They try to do any activity to get satisfaction. In that case, you should consult a psychologist for proper personality evaluation and if you need further help, you can ask.

Thanks
