When I was in high school I fantasized to show my self harm scars to one of my favorite male teachers. While for example with others I hated the idea of showing scars. It's like with those male figures, I want to concern them and I like their attention. It seems a bit weird for me.  why does this happen? |
I kinda have this. While i can agree with the others, my thought is that I just feel it's more rare and thus more of a novelty when men express interest like this and maybe it's the fight in me that i want to try to get this attention, that it sometimes means more. That being said, I could say this about certain women with this trait though, so not sure if that helps you.
