Life In Attention

Some people say a lot of things to me which they shouldn't. For example, I was just told I am too incredibly attractive for my own good and his, by my friend's boyfriend. I won't dispute the compliment. It's his opinion, no use arguing, but I do dispute that he should tell me, or even think, that. For now I won't tell her anything, as it would only upset her and I don't think it's a lot to worry about. Just stern words to him should do it, I hope. Why is it that so many males have trouble with boundaries like that? And still wonder why girls don't trust them?
Now, it is not a particularly comfortable thing talking about myself, and not disputing the compliments I am bringing up, but what he said reminded me of something a friend said a few years ago. This friend told me I am too pretty for my own good, and in a few years I'd understand that. Of course at the time I passed it off as him being his silly, fun self. Yet, he was right. I do understand now. I get too much attention. And I say that as someone who likes attention. It is too much. I feel vain now, so moving swiftly onwards.
But moving on to what? There are surely many things I could analyse and pull apart and make worth writing about, but I somehow have nothing. I'll allow this post to die to writer's block, and try to bring something more insightful later.
