We all met her in real life: this girl is always, despite the circumstances and context, unhappy, offended, infringed and everyone-everyone-everyone needs it. She’s like the main character of a soap opera. She is a drama queen.
Who is a drama queen
A drama queen is an overly loud and hysterical character in your environment. Very often a girl, but sometimes you can find yourself dating a male drama queen.
Everyone met drama queens at least once in their lives and even became friends with them, although such friendship is unlikely to end in at least something good. Such a madam dramatizes even a paper cut, and even if a guy left her or she was shouted at in public transport, this is a whole epic. Remember those crying Kim Kardashian memes? This is exactly what is considered to be the reference face of the drama queen.
The drama queen is a great storyteller and just a terrible listener. She is unusual, bright, and exciting, she has an artistic manner of presentation. And, of course, she loves the details.
To the question “How are you?” the drama queen will tell you how she woke up in the morning, had to breakfast, went to work, stayed at work, had lunch, went home, and even how she fell asleep the day before. In every detail. With all details. And, of course, the drama queen encountered something out of the ordinary, even if it’s completely ordinary.
Three hours after the question, you wake up somewhere in the middle, told about how they stepped on her foot, and you will understand that you have lost not only three hours of your life, but also a lot of energy.
The drama queen relishes every nuance of her experience, very often negative, and does it for a response.
She is not too interested in what you feel, what you think. Or how you feel. The drama queen wants to hear someone else’s voice in a conversation only when she needs a cue in order to continue the story.
The drama queen brawls and gets offended almost immediately, as soon as she notices that her sacred person has been trampled. And you will have to make the most dramatic apologies: sprinkle ashes on your head and wallow at her feet, dramatically exclaiming “Forgive me, sun-faced!”
Drama queen signs
The drama queen can be identified very easily, and you don’t even need to look closely at her through a magnifying glass. The drama queen is a noticeable and bright person.
Perfectionism
The drama queen wants to achieve the ideal in the smallest details. She tries to clean the table as cleanly as possible, cook the most delicious cake, wash windows, and shine shoes. And she is always unhappy if nothing turns out the way she would like. Of course, the drama queen begins to arrange her performance when salt is in place of pepper, which pretty infuriates those around:
“Swapping spices is two seconds, screaming is two hours, being a drama queen is priceless.”
Passionate speaker
She loves to talk and even more loves to be listened to and supported. The drama queen just loves when she nods, agrees and, of course, supports in everything. She will tell you in great detail even about minor troubles.
Plus, he gives you the best advice. Even if it doesn’t make any sense.
Bad listener
The drama queen is not interested in hearing about problems and other people’s dramas. She is the main star of this show, so if someone else’s stories appear, Her Drama loses all interest in the interlocutor. At best, she will listen, inserting on-duty phrases. At worst, she will switch the topic to her favorite.
Everyone is against her
The whole world is against her: all the bad jokes about her, all the pickpockets who want to steal her property and most importantly – all the troubles are going to immediately fall on her. She is offended as if for the last time, she slams the doors so that the jamb flies out, she leaves once and for all, but exactly until the moment when one more story needs to be told.
She is the best
The drama queen in her eyes is not a person, but a real angel! She is the most beautiful, the best, the sweetest, the most delightful.
The queen of drama in the world is sweeter than all, all blush and whiter.
Likes mysterious men
She adores mysterious and mysterious men who talk about themselves much less than she wants. However, the drama queen is often disappointed in men as soon as they become understandable and down to earth.
She is unhappy
She is unhappy in a relationship: as soon as her man loses the charm of novelty, her most favorite part immediately begins – suffering. Love and relationships for her are a suitcase without a handle: she is unhappy in relationships, and she doesn’t want to quit. This girl is sad, longing, crying, struggling with the unpleasant qualities of her lover every day, overcomes. And, of course, she tells everyone about it.
Who, of course, has the patience to listen to her.
What to do if you are a drama queen
Just admit that you are prone to dramatization and, most importantly, hurry to get out of this situation as soon as possible.
First of all, find a healthy outlet for your emotions: art therapy, writing stories and poems, keeping a personal diary. The fact is that not all dramas should unfold right in front of the people who surround you. And if you want, you can write a story about your drama, or a novel. Maybe a new hobby will make you a popular writer?
Change the situation that bothers you. And if you can’t change it, don’t be dramatic. Yes, the rain came and washed away all your eyebrows. But that can’t be changed, can it? Then there is no point in dramatizing.
Have a good laugh. Learn to laugh at your difficulties: a drama has happened – find something funny in it and have a good laugh.
Don’t create drama for yourself. Sometimes drama queens deliberately look for problems and sadness in their own heads, and therefore it is worth thinking ahead about their important actions.
Let go of situations. Troubles happen, and if you constantly live through them, putting yourself in a state of drama every day, nothing good will come of it. Truth.
