Why the attitude from Andy at Trax

When she first meets Blaine, she’s pretty rude. She obviously finds him attractive. Why act like that?

Also, did Duckie have any other friends? He was always alone if he wasn’t with Andy. Just how poor was he? Andy was obviously pretty poor. Her dad was a depressed bum and they had nothing but Duckie seemed dirt ass poor. Guy slept on a mattress on the floor in a bare bedroom. Was he squatting somewhere?

Andy wasn’t poor. She was, maybe lower middle class. Her problem was that she spent her time envying Steff’s house. If we all did that then most of us could scream poverty.

Not enough info on Ducky. He was messed up enough to do that nihilistic decor by himself. He wore decent clothing and he had enough product to do his hairdo so someone was giving him money. Especially since we know he has no job because he had enough free time to stalk Andy everywhere even at her job.
