    This should be interesting...

    How greedy are you, when it comes to:

    Money?
    Sex (give-receive ratio)?
    Possessions?
    Attention?

    Sex (give-receive ratio)?
    R: I don't think i'm greedy here. I like to give more :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    Possessions?
    R: EXTREMELLY greedy. DON'T TOUCH MAH COMPUTAH! And i need more stuff!

    Attention?
    R: A bit greedy.

    Money: very greedy, but I usually spend it for my friends and myself... Wine socials.....
    Sex: ....lol....
    Possessions: somewhat, I don't trust people to take care of my things, so I will either tell them no or monitor them as they use it. You have to be a really trusted friend to go unsupervised.
    Attention: only when faded or frustrated, otherwise I like to listen.

    Money?
    Probably fairly. I like to keep my money, and not spend it on myself, or anyone else. I tend to save up for nothing much at all. I guess I'll end up spending it on clothes, now I can buy clothes that I actually like.

    Sex (give-receive ratio)?
    Never done it, won't for a while. But I would be an exclusive bottom, because dysphoria. Plus, I have phimosis, so I couldn't, even if I wanted too. That is probably not greedy at all.

    Possessions?
    I have a big computer, but not much else of value. I guess not. Possessions aren't that important for me. Then again, I can wear clothes that I actually like now...

    Attention?
    Yeah. Even on here, I feel like I ask for too much sympathy.

    Money
    I'd say I'm greedy but beeing rich would be boring.

    Sex
    Giving and receiving should be equaled.
    I'd like to give more though.

    Possessions
    I can only posses one human being at a time.With animals multiple possessions are possible.Wait you mean that kind of possession.
    Two siblings.I learned to share.
    But i never can have enough books.Not for possessing them but because i want to know how the story continues.Impatience will be my downfall *sweatdrop*...

    Attention
    There are different kinds of attention but again give and receive.If you only take the one giving will remain a complete stranger to you.

    ---------- Post added 13th May 2015 at 07:13 PM ----------
    Nope.because you deserve so much more sympathy.=P

    Money: I've definitely given out a lot more than my fair share - sometimes wish I hadn't.

    Sex: I don't do oral. No way. Couldn't. Not a chance.

    Possessions: I've lent out tools, clothes and my car so I don't think I'm too possessive.

    Attention: Yeah, I do like attention.

    Money: Take it or leave it...It really does not make me happy.

    Sex: Never been a big thing for me, don't care for it much really, but I prefer to give.

    Possessions: Again, same with money. So long as I have computer+internet= happy Jay.

    Attention: Once again, do not need it to be happy.

    Conclusion: I am a really easy going person who needs and wants very little...Well maybe LOADS of hugs!

    To keep this as short as possible...

    Money?:
    I like to make it, and I like to have it. But to have it, I need to make it -- or not spend it.

    This is a problem.

    No-spend days are very limited in scope, but spending money you have left over after necessities, it just feels right -- like a reward, saying, for keeping your priorities straight, go buy a nice meal for yourself or exchange some currency.

    I'm also a smile addict. I admit it...

    Being able to provide somebody a good time, it's a wonderful feeling. Emotional intoxication, if you will, for them to always feel like you've got this or any situation.

    There's also a feeling of power there, too. To say, that smile, that way you feel right now, that's from me to you. Now go show that kindness to somebody else, but first, how you doin'?

    LOL.

    Point is, money is an easy way to guarantee a conversation. I'm just hoping my awesome personality and luscious good looks is what keeps them.

    Life is also a little more fun. When I do well, everybody does well. But I don't just spend on anybody, that's how you become first name basis with Debt, LOL.

    Basically, if I like having you around, you will be spoiled. Life sucks all the time if you do nothing about it, so, I'm going to have a good time, if you want to pout and not be spoiled... Okay, that's just more money for me to have fun with.

    I've got ambitions to fulfill, you don't have to get on my success bus, LOL...

    I need to stop, I'm having to much fun with this...

    I hate the idea that decorated paper holds power over skill and experience, but I recognize it as useful to have, so, there is an inclination to be greedy.

    Sex (give-receive ratio)?:
    I've nothing to go by from experience, unfortunately.

    However, I believe I would be a giver. I semi-joke about my sex creed being: They have to get off twice before I do. That right there kind of says, heavy lean to selfless.

    Also, there's the whole touch issue. While I can handle being touched, when out and about, the context is different. I'm either too focused on something to care or it's as simple as brushing fingers with the cashier. But in an intimate way, I have my reservations.

    I do miss cuddles though.

    Possessions?:
    I see possessions as one of three things. Yours. Mine. Available.

    I'm not going to touch your stuff without your permission. That's just being a dick, and totally not respecting somebody.

    If I bought it. It's mine. If it is in my pockets, my vehicle, or in a container with a lock, it is mine. My room, if it's out in the open, you know what, that's my fault. I'll accept the responsibility. But if you come at me with something, that was buried under the floorboard, it is reasonable to believe I will have questions, LOL.

    If you ask, sure. That's all I ask. That said, if you ask to use my lighter and you have a history of taking lighters, there is a very good chance I will not be letting you use my lighter.

    The only thing I'm really super-possessive over, possessions-wise, is a small safe of mine. It has USB drives full of computer files and programs. That's because it's a collection of works and entertainment, which has grown quite large. If something happened to those, I would be pissed... realize I'll have to work with memory and scratch notes... get pissed... start the massive effort... get pissed at wasting time... it would be terrible for my face, I'd get angry wrinkles, LOL.

    I've rarely bought something with somebody else pitching, at least, halfway... well, I have, but not legally! If I was living with somebody, I'd like to think we'd both have our together possessions, as well as our own.

    But let us make one thing clear. I own the bed. The couch is all yours, LOL.

    ^.~

    Attention?:
    When I have to be or especially want to be, then I'm okay with being visible. It's just that I prefer being in a small circle, no more than, maybe, 5 others. It's large enough to be interesting, but small enough not to be discouraging. Ideally.

    I do like praise, but then again, who doesn't? But it isn't so much the "YOU DA BEST!"-type of compliments I value the most, it's the "I'm feeling better/happier/laughing/being a boss at life" remarks that, to me, are the greatest compliment. I already know how awesome I am, but are you feeling awesome too? If not, let's fix that! <3

    Out of the given options, Im probably the most greedy over money :$

    Sex
    Idk, but dont think Id be greedy?

    Possessions
    I dont like sharing. But I feel like that because I fear that theyd drop it and break it or something :lol:

    Attention
    Sometimes I feel like I'm attention seeking, but its not that often. And who doesn't want a bit of attention every once and while?

    Money: Barely at all. I want enough to live comfortable. If I have internet and a roof over my head, plus food I'm golden =3

    Sex: Depends...in context of Roleplays online I'm rather addicted ( on and off ) and can never get enough >.<

    As for IRL...I feel like I'm more interested in intimacy and closeness than sex itself. I'd maybe explore stuff, but it's not really what I'm looking for.

    Possession: Touch my laptop, you die! lol no seriously I have like a handful of possesions. I've moved too many times to keep lots of things ^^"

    Attention: I don't really know what having a lot of attention feels like...I'm easily ignored and definitely forgetable

    Money: not too greedy. I try to save as much as possible while still having a good time. When I'm with my friend/nephews I'll buy them a drink or snack or something. Knowing that they owe me one next time.

    Sex: I would probably be neutral on this. I'd probably want mine and maybe be a bit of a nag....but, at the same time I would make sure they got theirs. :wink:

    LOL

    Possessions: I'm greedy with my possession. I don't like when others borrow my stuff.

    Attention: I think I'm attention seeking half the time. I hate being the center of attention though.

    Money:

    Not at all. Money is certainly something that I stride for, but I have never had a problem sharing what I have to a reasonable extent. Even if we are out together and I stop to grab a drink or snack, I will buy you something if you don't have money. It is not an option. Otherwise, I will feel very uncomfortable.

    Sex:

    Again, not at all. Viewing satisfaction is very important to me. In fact, whenever I watch porn I will skip sections where the faces of the participants aren't visible. Everything from the neck down is fine and all, but viewing satisfaction is the only thing that satisfies me on that level.

    Possession:

    Only when it comes to things that aren't meant to be shared. Such as my laptop. Anyone can use my desktop, but my laptop is filled with secrets that cannot be shared!

    Attention:

    I don't have to be greedy for attention. It naturally comes my way. :king:

    In all honesty, I am the least emotionally attached or needy person in the world. I don't even mean that to be egotistical because some people don't consider that a positive quality. But half the time I would be fine with less attention from most people.

    Money: not that much. I only like a few tokens representative of what I have worked to achieve and they are fairly simple. I prefer quality to quantity.

    Sex: more so than the average person on here, from what I can tell. I would have used the words "slightly ravenous" in the past, and way less so now, but I find it to be more of a sensory experience than a materialistic one. It theoretically is free of charge while still managing to be the oldest profession in the world for some - female and male.

    Possessions: since I don't like to accumulate them, I have some guardedness toward the ones I own. See Money above.

    Attention: I think I have some wise things to say every now and then and do like people to listen when I'm talking to them. I will also ask people a lot of questions and want to hear what they have to say. There are exceptions. I don't like lots of attention since I'm more introverted. Some attention will do.

    Money: It depends on the person who's asking for it. If I know that he/she really need it, then I am not that hard on giving. But when I know he/she will use it for non sense (like my cousins borrowing money for buying cigars) then I dont give them money at all. But generally, I am not that greedy when it comes with money.

    Sex: I am submissive, I can say that.

    Possessions: When it comes to my things, no. You can just ask if you want to have it then I can give it to you easily. BUT when we're talking about my food its VERY different. Mess with my food and FUCK BE READY TO MEET THE PHILIPPINE VERSION OF TASMANIAN DEVIL!

    Attention: I like being on the spotlight ONLY when I am with someone. I dont like being on the spotlight alone.

    Money: I am quite stingy and tend not to share my money, but I can change this feeling on a whim. Basically, it depends on my mood ... but my normal mood doesn't want to share. Let's say my Greed is 7/10 here.

    Sex: I've done pretty well so far in this category. I would never want to pressure someone into having sex with me if they weren't feeling it, so even if sex is something I desire I think I've got a lot more self control that most in this area. Greed 2/10

    Possessions: I don't like people touching what's mine. Greed 6/10

    Attention: Generally I prefer people to not pay too much attention to me, but when it comes to my close friends I go through phases of wanting their attention. But I think is more like a basic human need for some kind of contact, and nothing irregular. Greed 3/10

    Overall Greed: 4.5/10
    I'm not too greedy. In fact I think I'm slightly below the average. I tend to not want for much, and people tell me I'm easy to please. Most of my "greed" comes from having a sense of things that I feel belong to me, and wanting them to be for me rather than other people. If something isn't my property, then I don't have that feeling about it. But if I paid for it, or it was given to me, then it's mine, and so I decide whether or not to share it. End of story.

    Money - Not at all. If I have some extra I either treat myself to something cute or give it away

    Sex - Oboy, here come that one... Well in hallucinations in the desert landscape of romance I currently inhibit, I'm more a giver... and a chiller I think...

    Possessions - 100% communist LOL :lol: Really, owning to many things makes me feel bad.

    Attention - this fairy needs some of dat... but not too much, or I might get uncomfortable. No attention whore.

    money - more is better. More is better. Spending is for the weak.
    sex - equal is optimal. I like to receive as much as I like to give.
    possessions - less is more. I don't own many things. Just my laptop and clothes.
    attention - less is more. I'm not an attention whore.

    Money?

    Pretty low. As long as I can afford to keep the rain off and the gargoyle fed, I'm usually pretty happy.

    Sex (give-receive ratio)?

    This one's tough to answer. I usually want/expect (and get) something of an equal balance between giving and taking. I've occasionally had encounters where the other guy has been exceptionally "giving", without wanting me to do much or anything at all. And I've enjoyed those on a limited scale, but much prefer giving AND taking, to just laying there and taking. :slight_smile:

    Possessions?

    Generally speaking, I've reconciled my desire for material things. I can enjoy fantasizing about them without feeling I really need to actually own them. Collecting is a weird hobby that feeds the beast, though - the more stuff you get, the more you want. I think I keep it fairly tightly contained, though.

    Attention?

    The gargoyle loves attention as much as the next human. :slight_smile: But I apparently get enough that I rarely go out specifically looking for it. If I ever feel my attention bank running low, I can always post something stupidly witty on Facebook and count the likes. :slight_smile:

    Now, if you had mentioned nachos, pizza or cheesecake, I would've been screwed. I can never get enough of those. :slight_smile:
