You hear it all the time from certain people - "Confidence is attractive, just show self-confidence!" But how do you get it? Is it a simple matter of being born with it, or faking it if you haven't?

Consider two guys, Chad Chadinson and Billy Beta. They grew up in similar circumstances, and might have even been friends as kids. But due to genetics, home environment, or a plethora of other factors, Chad was a little more handsome and socially adept, while Billy was... less so. As the years passed, they both started getting an interest in girls. Chad found it easy to talk to girls, because all his interactions were rewarded and he always got a positive response. This in turn increased his confidence and motivated him to keep going. "Oh, he's so confident, that's hot!" people would say. Billy tried talking to girls too, but he was often ignored or rejected. He kept trying for a while, but the results were the same and eventually he became discouraged. Maybe he even stopped trying or developed some negative views towards women. "Oh, it's his fault for lacking confidence! I heard he's a creep too!" went the rumors.

So there you have it. I should add one additional fact I've noticed, which is that women seem to overwhelmingly prefer guys who have natural confidence and game. If they even catch a hint of a guy taking some online advice or classes, they immediately turn up their noses and declare him a creep. And yet his intentions and motivations were literally the same as the other guy's.

What do you think, true or false?
