it makes them FEEL GOOD ABOUT THEM SELVES
MOSTLY they surround themselves with people whom are NOT ON THIER LEVEL..to make them stand out
my ex was like that...always complaining about her "sorry azz friends"....blah blah they kinda lazy..blah blah blah..they choose the wrong men
yet she always kept thier company
then i realized MY EX LIKED THIER COMPANY CAUSE SHE COULDN'T ROLL WITH WOMEN WHO ACTUALLY WERE "WINNING" and DOING THE RIGHT THING
cause she would be INTIMIDATED BY THEM...
that's why you always see FINE WOMEN with UGLY FAT BYATCHES
or DUDES with MONEY with a BROKE AZZ HOMEBOY
insecure people don't like being challenged by somebody who got as much or more than them
