Date: March 18th, 2013 2:37 PM Author: hilarious heaven shitlib Yeah it's amazing how they do this but who can blame them.
A girl told me I wasn't confident because I have a self deprecating sense of humor. I had to explain to her that I have a self deprecating sense of humor because I absolutely think I am better than every single other person and this is the only way not to look like an ass. |

Date: March 18th, 2013 2:40 PM Author: vibrant cruel-hearted selfie Same here pumofriend. I'm a quiet guy and girls have told me I'm cold/unapproachable and being quiet makes me seem not very confident. So to seem like one of the guys I crack jokes, sometimes at my own expense. They don't like this either. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2208757&forum_id=2#22839089) |
|
Date: March 18th, 2013 2:43 PM Author: hilarious heaven shitlib A lot of women think confidence is a man who says "I'm a really smart funny guy."
I don't think I should have to tell anyone that, it's obvious. I'm not a auto salesman. |

|
Date: March 18th, 2013 2:44 PM Author: awkward massive school cafeteria doctorate My guess is that you don't come off as terribly confident because you're uncomfortable socializing, even if it's because you think people are beneath you (which, frankly, is extremely off-putting.)
Of course I am basing this off of like 3 sentences you wrote, so whatever. |
|
Date: March 18th, 2013 2:46 PM Author: vibrant cruel-hearted selfie People get the impression that I think they're beneath me.
How to curb? I'm aspie but confident. |

Date: March 18th, 2013 2:59 PM Author: hilarious heaven shitlib Nah I don't have trouble socializing. Tbf, it was a dumb girl who saying i don't come off as confident. I could definitely be more social but most people wouldn't say I was deficient.
But there definitely exists a dumb contingent of girls who mistake constant boasting and unearned cockiness as confidence when in reality those who feel the need to brag lack confidence the most. |

Date: March 18th, 2013 3:16 PM Author: gold community account This is so fucking false. One of the best pieces of advice I've ever heard is not to worry about the loudest guy in the room because you can probably guess where he stands and he's not calling the shots. Worry about the quietest guy. I can't remember if it was from a 180 mentor or an old gangster movie. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2208757&forum_id=2#22839268) |

Date: March 18th, 2013 6:33 PM Author: gold community account I admit that I don't watch Fox News or whatever but corporate law is all about powerful people with huge egos trying to get their way and I have a pretty good sense of what works and what doesn't after doing it for so long. Being brash or talking too much doesn't work and comes off as weak. The alphas get shit done with simple, authoritative statements that everyone listens to.

Date: March 18th, 2013 6:52 PM Author: gold community account I'm not bragging, just stating the obvious point that high end M&A lawyers are basically helping Alphas get their way in very touchy situations and anyone who has actually been a part of these negotiations knows how things work. It's not like when you (pumo) yell and scream at the zit-faced clerk at Walmart because your XXXL basketball shorts don't fit after you gorged yourself at Golden Corral last night and they won't let you return them.

they're stupid. Often they don't know about what people are talking about and feel insecure about the fact that they can't contribute. So they speak loudly to compensate instead of just listening and taking the opportunity to learn from others. |

Date: March 18th, 2013 6:34 PM Author: twinkling disgusting mexican candlestick maker There are loud guys who are insecure/overcompensate, and there are strong confident silent types (clint eastwood, charles bronson, james bond, etc) who aren't afraid to speak up, but there's considerable overlap between loud/brash and confident people.
Look at it this way...most guys who lack confidence are not going to have the balls to speak up and be loud. |
