True or False: One of the Worst Types of Men for a Relationship is One Who Lacks Confidence in Themselves?

Question

stepyo99 · Accepted Answer

I would go so far to say as it is the worst quality for men.

The women who say it's arrogance or narcissism don't align at all with my experiences. In fact, the most arrogant men I've known were swimming in pussy. Of course, the woman they were with all thought those guys were assholes, but it didn't stop them from going to bed with them every night.

Women don't care if you're an arrogant dick as long as you have the high social status (looks, money, alpha of social circle) to back it up.

True because a guy that has no confidence in himself isn't dependent on other people to help him make decisions and is easy to be hurt or to be manipulated. It's therefore not bad of a guy is in such a situation.

Even if i'm asexual and he's not but wants to hang with me, one with somewhat of confidence is better than none. My husband has some confidence but also very... quick to jump to help another. He will complain about it to me but from what I heard, when I get on, he's willing to hop in. Immediately. I love him for that so i'm very certain he has SOME confidence in his own decisions. :)

Nope, don't think it's the  worst!!  Think narcissism is worse!! 💯

RingOfFire · Answer

I'd have to go with mostly true. I think that men who lack confidence often have an inferiority complex and constantly try to prove their worth and seek validation. It is very hard to deal with because you feel like you cannot be honest with them if it includes anything critical. I think it is something difficult for a woman to deal with. It puts pressure on her never to criticize even when it is justified. Women can be this way too, but I think the problem manifests differently. It tends to be more of a lack of self esteem and the need to always be complimented. I think it is annoying in women but even worse when a man suffers from this.

It depends what you mean by confidence. Arrogance isn't confidence and it's equally unattractive as someone with a self-defeatist attitude, who whines all the time.

The worst type of men or women for a relationship are those, who are shallow, hypocritical and lack empathy about others

lightbulb27 · Answer

yes. women need a sense of security and stability. lack of confidence will set of very deep emotions which are hard to manage.

Some women may "prey" up this as they can gain control of him.

One persons "trash" is anothers "treasure"... but for most, they need confidence in themselves.

jshm2 · Answer

Some guys tend to have low confidence due to other issues. But as long as the guy is on the right path, confidence should not be the highest scoring factor. Unless of course the female is depressed already or has insecurity issues. Then it's just a recipe for crazy shit.

Anonymous · Answer

It depends. What is the cause of the lack of confidence? Some guys just need a boost to give them momentum.

So many women today are straight trash and get off on trying to break men down. A guy has to KNOW that NO WOMAN can take from you what you don't concede to her. a lot of guys run into one bad room after another and start to doubt themselves.

Yes a guy who lacks confidence is not good. But the why makes all the difference in the world. It's always better to take a guy with shaken confidence and solid character than one with Supreme confidence and weak character any day.

IAmAzzurra · Answer

It depends.
Lack of confidence in itself isn’t a turn off, but there are some people who are insecure and will entertain anyone who pays them attention, meaning that they are not always the most trustworthy

FreyaRed · Answer

No, they aren't worst if their common sense is healthy.
Those who are overconfident and think they were born under star of Fortune but failed in everything they touched are worst. My teen love transformed in such a arrogant loser over time.
A guy who isn't confident can be made confident by a confident girl who invests some efforts in him. This might doesn't pay off buy at least there is a chance.

razelove · Answer

I'd agree with that. It isn't as important in most cultures or countries to be physically strong, but you've got to be able to have your own beliefs, push your image onto the world around you, and protect your family from harmful ideologies.
Like how fun would it be to get with someone, then get broken up with because they think it's offensive to others if they display cis heteronormative affection in this day and age, as opposed to yesterday.
Mean what you say and do what you say.

Sparkie460 · Answer

I said false. Disrespectful men are the worst. They treat women like trash or a piece of meat

AnusNdaPainus · Answer

The worst type of man in a relationship is a man with no self control which is why women don’t like fat guys

BlissfullyCurSed · Answer

I don't know as I am not a self-labelled dating coach.

Luopio27 · Answer

When women get called ugly, their pussy stinks, or whores, their feelings get hurt. Their self esteem gets hurt. They look for comforting words from those they trust to bring their spirit back up again.

Women should be more understanding with self image, insecurity and related matters. In my 38 years I have learned that men can't show even signs of weaknesses. A friend of mine added, even caring is a weakness.

False - sometimes a lack of confidence is warranted. It does not make a person defective.

Yes.. If they lack confidence, they may be cheaters like my dad. A man can't be a good leader or father if he lacks confidence.

One that's insecure and feels the need to put others down to make themselves feel better Also known as a bad boy, they're successful with getting girls though

Ms_Facesitter · Answer

Definitely one of them. And many of them are single because they let theit insecurity become who they are as a person.

Hispanic-Cool-Guy · Answer

I think its false. Confidence can always be worked on and even if he still lacks confidence but it's a decent person then a good woman will be ok with him.
