Where do most young guys get their OVER confidence?

[Anonymous]

Im at bit odd here because I'm someone who HAD to prove his worth & "ego" growing up

I did a mix of mma & powerlifting in my late teens & I did have a few win streaks here & there

I'm the nerdiest guy you would see in the streets but my former skills spoke for themselves

I'm just curious because alota dudes who are either too overweight, shorter than me, have never competed in anything nor won either act very arrogant in general

Towards me as well UNTIL they see what I USED to do

But I'm just curious where guys get their big egos?

Lol there's guys that think they're such a great catch and any women would be happy to be with them. When all the do is eat junk food and play video games all day. Ugh and then they complain about "all women are the same they want a rich, tall, buff guy". And they've never talked to a girl in their life. Oh and to top it off they are addicted to p*rn. Guys like that are annoying. They get their egos stroked because they put on a "nice guy" persona and people call them "nice" but deep down they believe these toxic things.

I don't fit that stereotype

I was very good at competitive gaming when I was younger BUT I was also very obsessed with being athletic (faster, stronger, agile) & putting up big numbers on the weight rack

I'm very blunt & straight to the point & the very few girls that showed very slight interest towards me... I wasn't afraid of reciprocating & looking at them straight in the eyes only after they showed SLIGHT interest

Lol slight interest 😂😂😂 please don't tell me you think "hello" is slight interest

I'm not as unattractive as you think

More than a simple "hello*.

You could come to my neighborhood where at one point half of the girls there wanted to talk to me & would smile almost every time I would come around & would stare for roughly more than 3-5 seconds

I've had a FEW female therapists who would make sexual comments & at one point I was invited to a few parties when I was 17

Constant smiling if I happen to be around & staring more than 3-5 seconds

A few would try to talk to me

I was invited to a few parties by a few older gals after making sexual comments towards me at 7

You can come to my neighborhood & a lot of these idiots would viuche that a CERTAIN point I was the talk amongst the neighborhood

This was back in 2011-2016

Don't know what it was about me but a lot of these therapists would make sexual comments in front me & didn't mind if I stared at them

I used to do powerlifting when I was younger so I was in much better shape than I am now in comparison

a lot of gay men USED to hit on me & try to get me to talk to them

There was a particular to therapist who would not stop making sexual comments about me & didn't hesitate to just say whatever was on her mind

Don't assume because that's what most did & failed to gauge me

I'm not white by the way

It's from the lies they tell themselves in order to continue living their fantasy life where they are the star and everyone else are extras
