I hate people who automatically assume you can gain confidence overnight, like there's a pill you can take. A lack of self-confidence comes from years of rejection and being alone. People don't realize the chips each rejection takes out of a person. Eventually, those chips add up to one big chasm, and you're left afraid to talk to a girl. Or worse, you automatically assume every decent girl hates you. The truth is, after the age of 16, girls (a woman being a girl + 10 years and in need of someone to fertilize her egg)only want what they can't have, what will piss off daddy, or what will make their friends jealous. Looks and money are the most important factors. Confidence is just a word people label good-looking guys/girls who have no choice but to be confident because they have never experienced real failure or real rejection. My advice would be to wake up every day, make yourself look as good as you possibly can, and just pray some girl is dumb enough (and trust me, there's plenty of dumb girls) to fall for the trap. You may not get Megan Fox, but someone decent is bound to come along, if only take your money and trap you with a kid. Any decent girl is probably already married or in a serious relationship. Your choices now: dumb, plastic, bimbo who's probably slept with the local university football team, or a fishdog who has "a great personality".
