I don't know about this. People always jump to this conclusion but I tend to disagree with any black and white statements like this. What kind of insecurity are you talking about? A person's own, personal insecurity, or insecurities caused by external sources?

I think you can be the hottest shit in town, or even just believe you are, but someone can still betray your trust rather easily. You may never feel jealous, but shit will still happen if it must. I don't think all jealousy is about confidence. Sometimes, it's instinct. I think women can sense when another woman may feel something for her man.

I don't make friends with boyfriends' exes. I could make an exception, but with so many billions of people in the world I can befriend, they aren't top of my list. And having been cheated on with an ex, I never want to set myself up to be a fool again if I can help it.

Whether we write or speak or do but look
We are ever unapparent. What we are
Cannot be transfused into word or book.
Our soul from us is infinitely far.
However much we give our thoughts the will
To be our soul and gesture it abroad,
Our hearts are incommunicable still.
In what we show ourselves we are ignored.
The abyss from soul to soul cannot be bridged
By any skill of thought or trick of seeming.
Unto our very selves we are abridged
When we would utter to our thought our being.
We are our dreams of ourselves, souls by gleams,
And each to each other dreams of others' dreams.


Fernando Pessoa, 1918
