25 Signs Someone Is Incredibly Insecure

21.

“No homo.”

Insulting people because they have tattoos or piercings or colored hair. I don’t have any of those things but it’s always cringey to me when people start calling someone an attention whore just because they have blue hair or something. Maybe they just like the f*cking color blue? Some people just seem so insecure that they wish all people looked boring so that the insecure person could stand out more.

23.

Constant need to downplay other people’s accomplishments in order to raise up your own. I have a friend who on occasion will say something that just completely destroys the legitimacy of even the smallest achievement. For example: I decorated a cake for a friend’s birthday. When I brought out the cake, everyone was like “Oh wow, that looks great.” My Negative Nancy friend said “Don’t you know how easy that is?”

24.

Constantly questioning your SO’s whereabouts and plans. If I said I’m getting food with my best friend, that’s all I am doing. I’m not out partying, drinking, or sleeping around. I’m getting food, with my best friend.

25.

People who don’t dress well. People who remain in the back. People constantly looking down. People who constantly touch themselves like holding their arms. People who hold in their laugh. People who try to blend in and look normal in hopes of not standing out.
