A person who craves sympathy from multiple people by consistently drawing attention to ongoing personal problems is one way in which a person can be deemed seeking attention and is the most common kind. They can do this in person or on social networking sites to reach a wider audience. But attention seeking can come from getting looks from multiple people as a means to boost their ego, confidence and/or view of their place in society. This also improves standing in society and is considered to make them more popular. The common medium is the motorcar. Expensive, fast makes and models are perceived as the most effective at attracting the gaze and receiving positive feedback from people. So the social group most likely to indulge in parading themselves to get looks are people in the employment of high paying, top companies
I saw a man yesterday racing his Porsche down the street. He really was an arrogant attention seeker!
