playing the role…

“if you are really confident about your financial situation, you probably won’t need to have an 8-pound gold chain around your neck to show people how much you have. You probably won’t need to have pictures of bundles of cash to prove how much money you have. You know you have money, you don’t need to prove it. If you are really confident about your sexuality, you won’t need to show it by having 8 women around you. You won’t need to show it by talking about how many women you’ve been with. If you are really confident about your strength, your worth you probably won’t need to put someone else down to feel strong.” Barrack Obama

This is a quote by barrack Obama and man oh man, how true is it? It makes so much sense. This is why I’m always so turned off by people who brag about what they have. It’s sometimes insecurity I’ve realized. Like a guy who knows he is probably a 5, meets a girl he knows is way out of his league. He feels the need to brag about his money and cars in order to feel like she deserves him. Or the girl who goes to her school reunion and still feels like the timid and boring teenager she was in school. So she tries to make up for the way she feels by talking about her rich husband and cars and kids and so on. Just to make herself feel better. Ego is a bitch man. We’re all just playing a role.
