“It’s better to be alone than to be in bad company.”

ANON

This quote is self-explanatory because all it is trying to say is that it is worse to be with people who are a bad influence or a danger to you than to just be alone. It is better for you not to be with these people that could harm you or influence you in any negative way. If a person is friends with a group of people who aren’t doing any good to this person then they shouldn’t be friends with them at all. Sometimes this is hard to do, for various reasons. Sometimes being friends with someone who is a bad influence will give this person a sense of rebellion. Other times a person will have a fear or anxiety of finding new friends and will try to stay with the ones they already have. Either way, eventually they should realize the bad influence or potential harm and try to escape this.
