Don't ya just hate it when people create or make up drama in their life to gain attention and sympathy?

Answer 1

I feel like so many people make such an effort to be unhappy. If people put half as much effort into being happy with what they have and enjoying the little things in life everything would work out better. I have friends that want everyone to feel badly for them and make everything a big deal. I've seen someone push a great girl away because there was a bunch of other stuff in his life that went to to h*ll. I can't understand that. If there is something good in your life, why would you want to push it away when its one of the only things you have left? I wish people could just see what is in front of them, stop feeling sorry for themselves, and just make an effort to be happy. Being happy can be the easiest thing in the world when you try.

Answer 2

yeah! I have an associate who's always complaining about her boyfriend and how he treats her. Then whenever they get into arguements she'll call my friend and ask her what we're doing, if she can come over, etc. And when she does, it's not for a few minutes or a couple of hours......it's several hours, even into the middle of the night........if she really wants to get away, she needs to break it off!!!! But all she'll do is go back home and argue some more. I think she likes all this drama!

Answer 3

Yes i do. it seems like after you figure that out, they wear you out,
or you just do not want to bother helping or listening or caring, because it is always about them..

The other part about that is sometimes they cry wolf,, because they do not have enough confidence in themselves to be who they are ,,
and sadly, do not use their own resources in daily living and communication to just interact with others, so they make up drama, etc, and so the sad part is they are screaming for love and attention any way they can.

I KNOW THIS FOR A FACT
as when i was growing up, i was a miserable lonely thing, and i wanted attention so bad, from home family etc and i went to insane lengths to get it,

I Grew up, and did the same, thank GOD, I got lots of help counseling and therapy, and realized i did not need to create a "soap opera" AND DRAMA QUEEN antics to be liked,,
that is why i recognize this,
The solution in dealing with persons like that is not just one. and not easy, i have know people like that who actually have killed themselves, because that was the only way they knew for attention.
So please remember, to be kind, gently but firm, and dont get to locked into them..

Anyway, just pray for them, or point out the problem they have and let them know you recognize the drama.. and tell them to get help or get over it,

good luck

Answer 4

Maybe these people really do have problems in their life and the last thing they want is sympathy or attention.

Don't ya just hate it when people have no empathy for their fellow man???

Answer 5

Yes, my sister is this way. We recently fell out because I told her that was how I felt. I was tired of her calling me to complain or whine about stupid things. No matter how I tried to comfort her or come up with logic, she would argue the advice or opinion with more DRAMA! Never just call to see how we're doing! EUGH!

We are both adults and should have more to do. Hope I wasnt being too insensitive.

Answer 6

Answer 9

Its quite a common affliction - called the Munchausen syndrome.

There is a deadlier version of it I'm told called the Munchausen proxy syndrrome. Care to guess what that is?

Answer 10

lol....I stopped talking to this girl that does exactly that. She can't have a stable relationship cause she has to cause some kind of drama in it. I just couldn't take all that negativity in my life anymore and had to get away from her.
