    If you know your worth and you want to meet people, you don’t sit in the corner waiting for someone to see it.

    A confident person does what they believe will lead to success. They take their shot and they will miss more often than not, but they hit at times.

    A confident person doesn’t care if people are weirdos about them taking a shot. Because they are confident enough to see that the weirdos are the ones that think it is weird to attempt for love.

    Confidence is not being the loudest voice, and taking up space. Confidence is to accept disharmony, if they are right.

        Nah it is a feeling. It just impacts your behavior. Like fear impacts your behavior, or anger… Or hunger…

            Of course, the other person only see the actions and technically it could be a performance, but you will fail to perform it if you don’t actually feel it.

              Ehh, narcissists are notorious for performing confidence perfectly, even though they don’t feel it. On the other hand, over the years, I’ve seen many men who don’t meet the attractiveness standard have plenty of what would be called confidence, if an attractive man had it. And a few very attractive men who are shy and awkward get plenty of women pursuing them nonetheless.

                You want to believe what you want to believe. That is okay, but remember that you made that decision.
