Do you have it?

Does lack of it stop you doing stuff, say meeting people on here?

Would it put you off meeting someone if you knew they'd been with someone super hot out of fear of been a disappointment?

I’m pretty self confident for a short fat bloke. I know what I bring to the table and in my head that should be more than enough for anyone,

no matter how good looking they or their precious sexual partners are.

I’m not sure I’ve got self confidence on here, perhaps I’m just better at ignoring my lack of confidence, if that makes sense?

Stopping yourself from doing something enjoyable is bad, I hope you find a way past it.

I've met hot men, so them meeting hot women wouldn't have bothered me, until a few years ago.

Now, I doubt anyone who has sex with hot women would look twice at me. That's not because of lack of self-confidence; it's me being realistic.

I keep putting myself out there a lot. I’m pretty introverted and I struggle with new people.

I am super shy around new people and I turn into an awkward potato. I have, a few times in the last few weeks, squashed things that were going well because I decided the guy was too hot for me.

I was previously in an abusive relationship and I struggle accepting that people might actually like me. I, for the most part, assume that people are just being polite. I go to therapy but it’s 20 years I need to re write. It will take time.

Honestly for me confidence does not come on here. It’s not to do with meets or lack of or anything, it’s more to do with watching how people interact with others.

Seeing how you can say something and it’s taken apart by others for no real reason. If it was like that face to face it would not be tolerated but here it is

So no, for me, confidence does not grow here. What does is the small percentage of people who make it worthwhile

There was a guy on here, he asked me multiple times to meet me and the reason I didn't, was seeing who he'd met previously. I thought there was no way he'd like me after meeting them.

Usually the fear or worry is worse than what happens.

As for thinking of other people as super-hot, you know that to many people that’s you?

I've gained a lot of confidence since I joined fab/started to go to clubs and socials. Although (like most people I imagine) I have a bit of a wobble now and again.

If someone has been verified exclusively by women with a totally different body type to me it would definitely give me pause, but "hot" wouldn't put me off

My confidence in myself is fine on here.however my confidence in people on here is massively lacking. This is due to the abruptness in the content of messages i do get, lack of replies to the quantity of my messages I send. Etc etc.

I don’t think I’ve got it as such.. however, it doesn’t stop me doing anything because I am what I am and that’s enough for me and mine

If I started worrying about stuff like what I looked like compared to other people, where would it end? I could turn myself into a barbie doll with a lot of money, effort and self discipline but then what? Some would still find me unattractive or less attractive than others so what would be the point? We don’t all judge others and compare to our previous partners so why do we think other people do that to us?

None of us are perfect, even the perfect looking people have smelly farts and bits about themselves they don’t like. If someone’s interested in me after we’ve met then there’s a reason for that and I’m not going to blow it up by comparing myself to who they’ve been with before. 8 billion people on the planet and we’re all different. There’s no order or attractiveness starting from 8 billionth being fuck ugly and 1 being the most attractive person on the planet is there!

No self confidence whatsoever, unless I really click with someone, then I have it in abundance.

Yes, it can stop me doing stuff and I can hate myself because of it at times.

It wouldn't put me off, if we're meeting it means we've clicked. Also, it's their choice to meet me, so they've chosen to do so for a reason.

I don’t think I’ve ever thought of them as being less attractive than I am. I just know when I see someone more attractive, I think shit I can’t never match up to that. I know it’s a really stupid way of thinking but sometimes you can’t help but compare yourself to others.

You’re not seeing things as they really are and I don’t think a bunch of anonymous perverts (no offence, like) on here will be able to help much.

Trust me that things aren’t as bad as you see them and I think you need a way to believe that yourself.

Sometimes

Some non-fab stuff

However attractive you are there's always going to be someone more attractive, wherever you are in the world and whatever you're doing. I'd never do anything (or anyone) if I allowed that to make me feel lesser. If someone tells me and genuinely acts like they think I'm hot and want to meet, then I'm going to take their word for it. It doesn't matter who else they've previously hooked up with.

A slightly or maybe controversial view.

Some people will give compliments to many or any in here trying to win favour or a meet or a message.

What can be seen as a fake compliment or a compliment that you know isn’t really meant for any other reason than to win favour actually I see as a negative and can knock confidence.

As all that happens is you can be seen to be doing it to everyone and then you start doubting it and thinking is it purely done in the hope of gaining favour

I have a form of it. I don't project it. I'm not 100% sure of myself all the time everytime.

If somebody shows interest in me then that's a boost to my confidence and I'm not scared or put off.

Same goes for if they have had hotter meets. They are interested in me so I'm feeling confident, even if it's likely to be a disappointment for them. I'll have warned them.

I project it in my work and to people who don't really know me.

I lost most of it sometime ago and that's gotten worse with age, mental health and being a type 1 diabetic and all that goes with it.

I don't tend to meet many people from here except in clubs although that has changed recently. If I get chatting to someone on here, as I have increasingly lately, I lay it all out for them so that they can make the decision to meet me, or not. So far it's been going quite well, I've made some good connections and met some lovely people.

It's something that I hope to rediscover within myself to a greater extent

I spent several years in a relationship with someone who was way out of my league. She was 10 and I would say I'm a 4 or 5 if I was being generous to myself. Neither of us had much self confidence, I eventually found out that she thought I was way out of her league.

I have always had self confidence never compared myself or others.

We are all individuals being not objects and can't stand the comparison between people gives me the ick

Comparing experiences is different but to compare looks is not the one.

I would compare objects to one another but not the looks of a person. Every individual has emotions wether they show it or not it always catches up with a person sooner or later.

Getting shy happens as I'm never vain and arrogant my shyness would come from not knowing how well or not I would get along with a person and would me and them establish a connection but also how strong would it be xx

I rarely feel self confident but I've become adept at faking it until one day I might eventually make it.

It doesn't stop me doing thing's in the way it used to. I've realised that life is too short.

I do worry that I'll be a let down all the time, I'm always insecure about my looks and my body. I always expect that people will get bored of me pretty quickly too. However I enjoy for what they are. I don't have to understand it.

Yes I have confidence. It’s probably because I am old. I am also fun company.

It helps to get out of your own head and see yourself how others do.

Find your boundaries and then don’t allow others to cross them

This has taken me a lifetime to discover

I am comfortable in myself now (thank you therapy) with good mental health and that I think gives me confidence.

I am not surprised when people like me. I am not upset when people dislike me. But I am consistently very fucking surprised when people fancy me.

Oh Lilith, I would give you one of those cuddles you hate right now!

I definitely used to be insecure, and now still get rejected a shit load! I also chat up women who have slept with Greek gods.

I don't know if it was my job, where I have to chat to anybody and everybody, or if one day I just thought, what does it matter?

We have one life and honestly now, I make sure I look as good as I can with what the mother dear gave me and I just be myself. And I've accepted that for some people that's the worst thing imaginable but for others it's great. And I'm much more attracted to people generally in life who are themselves and state their opinions and aren't holding back, cause it's not easy to do to face that rejection you'll get, but it's respectable.

We don't always get what we want but the best thing we can do is be ourselves and love ourselves as much as possible. Life ain't easy! So chat up that hot person, fuck their hotter veris (not literally) and block the people who you think are bad news.

Long story short - do whatever you can to be happy.

I have pretty much zero self confidence/self esteem. I am aware of every single flaw in my body to the extent where the only positive attributes I have are my ankles and eyebrows. Too many negative comments over my lifetime from partners and others.

I usually hide myself away when it is too much to handle and then reappear with my fake confidence mask on.

Few people actually see me with my walls down.

So in short doesn't usually stop me but its hard work wearing a mask.

I can be insecure or comfortable,depends on my mood, weight, what lingerie I'm wearing/ how it fits, etc. I wouldn't say it stops me but if someone is talking about wanting 'hot people only' or only meets people of a type that I'm obviously not, I'd probably avoid meeting them. Is that the looks or their approach - not sure.

But even at my most insecure, I won't entertain people who are only focused on themselves or not able to meet my needs, even if it's unintentional due to their circumstances. Fun here should mutual & cater to all involved. Sin xo

I am more: I'm me, than self-confident.

Sometimes I see women and I think there's no chance, I'm not that lucky.

It wouldn't stop me meeting them. It doesn't stop me believing it if I feel it in the moment with them. I've been in relationships with very attractive women and I've been fine.

Insecurity can poison the well though. I've been on the receiving end of that a couple of times. It's hard to swallow when you really like someone and they struggle to believe it. I'm sat there banging my against a wall thinking: if you could let this go and get out of your head for a second, you'd feel it and then you would know.

Did I answer that? Waffling like a Muppet today. Forgot the question.

I sincerely lack self confidence and has hindered me on here. I've had socials where they said they didn't want to take things further as they thought I wasn't flirty enough to feel a spark and it's something I've never thought about because I never wanted to overstep boundaries or come across that it's more than a social.

If I had more self confidence, I wouldn't be afraid of saying the wrong thing which could probably lead to more success on here

Do I have it?

Sometimes, mostly no.

If I was meeting someone in a pub or club they'd have to stand outside and take me in, I can't walk in by myself.

The thought of the big fab socials scare the hell out of me. I don't know if I can ever turn up at one.

Confident enough to actually go on a social yes, but I shake with nerves each time.

Would I lack confidence to meet people on here? hell yes. Happens all the time. And I can be amazed someone wanted a further meet.

No, no I don't have that much confidence to be fair.

I think that describes me to a T! A lot of reasons why I hardly flirt or be forward on a first meet is because of my unwillingness to be open and be myself. Once I know someone is actually interested or we've met a couple of times, I'm far more open easygoing.

I've always struggled with confidence and holding myself to unrealistic standards. It holds me back a lot, and I struggle to accept that if something's worth doing, it's better that I irretrievably mangle it than worry about perfecting it. (When I say "irretrievably mangle", others say "this is excellent", because either I'm too hard on myself or the world suffers from mass psychosis, I'm not sure)

But no, I wouldn't stop myself meeting someone based on comparing myself to who they've met.

I am self confident to a point. I consistently punch above my weight on here and have met some incredibly hot guys who are well verified by stunning women. That doesn't put me off - actually quite the opposite. I find it a big compliment and very affirming. BUT my ego is very fragile. So if they subsequently do something to knock my confidence - anything from blowing me out to meet someone else to a simple throw away comment on here or IRL - then that's it. My confidence is shattered and I lose all desire to want to see them again because I feel undesired.

Yeah I’ve got it, sure I can look at another woman and think she’s attractive on the surface but is she an attractive person the answer to that is ‘who knows’ life isn’t about looks and perfect bodies and the ‘magazine/airbrushed effect’ we all have a uniqueness about us and our physical appearances only tell part of the story.

If anything woman need to be less hung up on analysing other woman and learn to be happy in there own self only then can you find the confidence to put yourself out there, it doesn’t matter if men shower you with compliments you need to believe in your own worth in the first place!

Maybe, ( over using this word now, I know) they will think you are their type as your online personality is all they’ve got to go off. And your pictures absolutely show you who they’d meet, so they already know if you are their type.

Oh I was just generalising not saying you specifically do - as an observation some woman can seem to be hung up on a man’s opinion of them at times or the number of fabs or likes on a social media post none of that really means anything - seems some woman don’t hold too much of an opinion about themselves other than negative ones or ones derived from comparison.

Talk to people, meet for socials, experience the beautiful spectrum of people personalities. In there somewhere is a select few you will totally relate to and you'll feel a connection that will inherently include self confidence.

#Believe.

Existing, as I do, as the Brisn Glover experience, I play to my strengths and don't get overly worried about this place.

I'm normally one of the first out of my kit at a club

"Definitely don't have much confidence. Was put down alot when I was younger, and it's taken a long time to attempt to build that back up. Never feeling good enough, always wondering if I'm good looking enough to be with someone, or if they are too hot for me. Many insecurities from probably a 15-20 year period that just don't go away! "

Totally get that feeling... for what it's worth... I totally would xx

"Do you have it?

Does lack of it stop you doing stuff, say meeting people on here?

Would it put you off meeting someone if you knew they'd been with someone super hot out of fear of been a disappointment?

My ex was the hottest girl I've ever set eyes on but that's my business why should anyone worry about what someone's ex looked like

"If you lack confidence make a change in your life something simple such as going to the gym and training.. it will change the way you feel i guarantee that ! "

Yes, that will sort those who've struggled with lack of confidence for a decade or more - as some have said on the thread. It's a complicated issue and your response is the equivalent of "pull your socks up".

That's like telling someone with a broken leg to walk it off...

I know this alone won't help a lot, but I can see how it can help a little, for some.

"A slightly or maybe controversial view.

Some people will give compliments to many or any in here trying to win favour or a meet or a message.

What can be seen as a fake compliment or a compliment that you know isn’t really meant for any other reason than to win favour actually I see as a negative and can knock confidence.

As all that happens is you can be seen to be doing it to everyone and then you start doubting it and thinking is it purely done in the hope of gaining favour"

I think there's merit in your point. Verifications are meant to be about letting people know if the person you're meeting is real and ultimately will you be safe with them. I much prefer reading that someone is kind than hearing about their performance. Any verification I have or give is based on knowing that person a long time. Self worth and building on it is a goal most need to pursue. External validation does not provide it

I mean that’s a very general thing to say and probably won’t do much to help the majority of people struggling with self confidence

Agreed. Joining the gym just made me insecure about how I was in the gym

(Not that I wouldn't recommend it, but not because it'll magically cure confidence issues)

I have enough self-confidence to be on fab. I engage in forum post, show my face, cock and all. I post pics and vids of me fucking. If i am on a meet, I have no interest in the person they met previous only if they wanted a 3sum. That's just me.
