everyone says confidence but what are you supposed to do if you're scared shitless?

yes I admit that I find confidence to be attractive but I also know what it's like to not be able to speak to someone you reaaallly want to talk to. I don't know if you've ever done any acting but I try to think of myself as a "character" when I get really nervous. I'm just being someone else and if that guys rejects me or isn't that interested, he is blowing off the character I was playing...

So with this in mind I also use the character to do things that I, Koleeta, wouldn't normally do because I am too shy. For example, as this other person I would randomly go up to a guy and start shootin the shit about nothing...about something really random. It would be okay because it's not really me out there, I'm just along for the ride.

hey, way to sound really stupid, Koleeta. I'll go away now.



... Koleeta so cute.

This is pretty decent advice, too. It might also make it easier to make like you're genuinely interested in her as a person, and not just as a breathtakingly gorgeous girl. Gorgeous girls get hit on all the time ... so it might be refreshing for her (if she's actually a nice person, anyway) for you to approach her as an opportunity for conversation, rather than an opportunity to hit it.

What if you fake confidence? Can they tell?



I've never been able to spot someone who faked confidence so...no?



I can spot them. But then again I've been around a lot of actors growing up.

Still, ... there's not much you can do about confidence (as in, the lack thereof) except to fake it till you make it. Consider the first 25-50 failures as rough drafts.

Don't worry too much, it does get easier.

Indeed. I used to be really nervous about talking to stangers but after pretending like I wasn't I become more comfortable with it and now I just don't give a shit. Wait, I think that just means I've become jaded.

Confidence. If you don't have it, get it somehow.



They have a shot, now. Ask you doctor about it. And I hear they're coming out with a pill form of courage to replace the current liquid version.

On a serious note,
I don't believe anyone knows "what they're doing" in any situation with romance. I don't believe it for a second. B/c no matter what "experience" or "confidence" you have IT DOESN'T WORK FOR EVERYONE, it's not universally interchangeable and that's how everyone fucks everything up anyway. And the way you treat one person, how you maybe treated someone you thought you loved or something anything....well every person is different so all the same games may not work. All you can do is just be yourself and be proud I guess. There's a difference between pride and confidence. Confidence might fuck you over---it could get you laid surely. It will get you anything. But it might get you everything the wrong way, too.

So I say just respect yourself. Have pride and be yourself. If people can't handle that FUCK THAT, those are people you'd never want to see again anyway and then make clear decisions between love and lust, liking and fucking, and there are 5 million other degrees. NO ONE IS AN EXPERT IN BLISS!!!

SO being that I am stating that no one knows what the fuck they're doing anyway,

just go out there and make a fool of yourself.

You ain't got shit to lose and you'll find the one person who loves that about you.

Edit:

Ok? There you go. NO MORE OFTHESE THREADS!!! THIS IS THE BEST ADVICE GUYS! kiss Oh my GOD I just told the secret of where all the best women are: They want a guy who's going to make her LAUGH. THAT'S THE CONFIDENCE thing you should know. Confidence? Make her LAUGH. Work on your fucking stand up b/c love SUCKS!!! love ahahhahahaa. I'm laughing just thinking. tongue



Well I'm gonna go vomit now, but it's true. This comes from an expert in pain. That's it. I don't own love or anything like that and yeah, I never talk to guys EVER really to be serious. I do stuff like Garth did in Wayne's World when he would see the blonde. Ya........... puke love

confidence, a smile, and be interested in them - act relaxed (confidence).

Good luck, tell us if you pull.

Booze is sometimes a good substitute for confidence. But it's a sort of fine line. If you drink too much, it is only going to make things worse.

Corollary: What's a good demonstration of the line separating confidence from arrogance?

I myself might be a lot more confident if I wasn't worried about coming off like my own number one fan.



don't talk about yourself. I mean you can talk about yourself as in "Hi I'm ___, I do this for a living, I enjoy blah blah blah." I find it annoying when I'm at a show and a guy will come up to me and start talking about how he's such a better bass player or drummer than the one in the band. I won't tell you how many times this has happened to me. When you're confident you can talk about other things...things that the other person might find funny, or also do as a hobby, or a movie, something besides you.



I agree....it's not about what you say....it's about what you don't say.

This seems incredible to me.

I can only assume the guy is actually nervous and babbling, or stupid beyond human belief.

Maybe I am just an awesome bass player. . .
