Defensive

Someone that always tries to pick on people they are too weak to acknowledge they have negative feelings for/about, so instead of acknowledging their negative feelings, they talk a bunch of shit.
The defensive girl that was always mouthy didn't want people to think she actually hated somebody, since that would contradict her false love/light/hope image, and people would then be able to pick back at her double standards after that, so she always made it look like she meant no harm by what she said.
