Live fast die young
By the time I was in my late teens, I despised the idea of “serious relationships” or the so-called “normal life.” I was a classic case of film industry conditioning, growing up on stories that screamed of live fast die young mentality, raging hormones, and purposely immoral behaviors. It was late nineties, but in Eastern Europe we still hung on to the Hollywood 80-s films where the most popular characters were rebellious teenagers, social outcasts, charismatic serial killers and prostitutes, while the MTV stuffed our heads with outright degrading or extremely dark entertainment products that glorified self-destruction, depression, promiscuity, and rage.

This is the Law - moths always fly into the fire
"How do I get other people to pay attention to me?" Every person and situation is different. Our needs for acceptance and recognition vary to a great degree. Some people could care less while others need lots of love. It's perfectly normal. We are all unique no matter how universal some basic human behaviors are.
