Girls are like apples on trees. The best ones are at the top of the trees. The boys don&#039;t want to reach for the good ones because they are afraid of falling and getting hurt. Instead, they just get the rotten apples that are on the ground that aren&#039;t as good, but easy. So the apples at the top think there is something wrong with them, when, in reality, they are amazing.
