My boyfriend thinks i love attention.
But i just love affection.
BIG DIFFERENCE.
Attention is giving someone recognition, affection is giving someone love. Attention can be given without any physical emotions being attached to it, but affection comes from feeling within a person.
Attention doesn't evoke physical feelings, it doesn't have attachments.
Affection means we share a piece of ourself with another being. Affection pulls on to the heart, it causes us to laugh, cry, feel hurt and share emotions. Giving love and affection to someone can leave us open to pain, but the joys that come from affection outweighs the pain.
Think again when you're calling someone an attention-seeker. Because they just might be an affection-seeker. :)
