Bad friends Quote by Jazmin Garcia
“Insecure girls go after the taken guys, the guys their friends like, the off limits ex boyfriends of their friends, or any guy that gives them attention. It's their messed up way of trying to prove to themselves that they are good enough...because in the inside they are so torn up about who they are and what they are worth that if they score something that is someone else's it makes them feel superior and like they are worth something. When in reality all it does is chip away at their morality and innocence until there is nothing left.”
