Get the Ascension mug.Related Words
A girl, pretty or not, who absolutely loves attention. Usually even loved by people, esp. boys, because she's "hot", "fun" and has a "wild personality" as she describes herself. Loved because she can be unusually nice, loud, funny, and cute. Posts stupid blogs advertising herself how unique and lucky she is, and situations in her life. Is a virgin and acts like a total slut to get attention and admiration from ANY boy, and she's so desperate to find Mr. Right and have sex when she's only fuckin 15. And she's disappointed that she's so "hot" and she got to this 'old' age and she hasnt had sex yet!?!? omg!!!! She admits she wants sex and all the dirty stuff just for the attention and in hope of winning a guys heart.. more like winning his dick. I mean COME ON. Anyway she tries to gain as much friends as possible, online and in life, and she uses stupid little 'moments' she had with those people to get aquainted with them and then get to know them like some kind of creeper randomly messaging them and getting into their life. But it doesn't seem that creepy, cause once again, her 'charm' is working on them. Likes to stick her nose in other people's business and thinks she's good enough friends with them, but they're not backlashing at her because they're too nice, and she never gets the idea that she's a nosy little bitch. Really 'lives her life to the fullest' cause she's acting like a fuckin slut to attract guys, esp. the stupider guys who fall for crap like girls' asses and slutty-ness. She can love every guy, but she's always scared and intimidated by them to approach them and talk in person, esp. older guys, so she uses myspace or crap like that. (omg they're JUST GUYS dammit) Once again most guys fall for her. Uses people, even really good friends, for connections to other people they're interested in. Likes to steal friends from friends like a bitch-ass shit. Sometimes breaks guys hearts cause they're not 'Mr. Right'. Not the awesome and smart girl you think she is. Just a stupid attention whore.
That girl (let's call her Rebeckah) is my friend and she seems so amazing to everyone though if you look closer and think deeper she's just a huge attention whore.
