There was some theory about stages of learning:

Unconscious incompetence
Conscious incompetence
Conscious competence
Unconscious competence

Hence the “fake it” is until conscious behaviour becomes first competent and second ingrained so it is unconscious

"Fake it till you make it" only goes so far. If you are afraid of the dark and you fake your bravery and you walk at night alone for the first time and nothing happens, then your brain will not be scared of the dark the next time. You do it many times and eventually it will go away completely go away. But this is an easy mode.

Now if you fake your confidence in front of a girl, eventually when she starts testing you or you start asking you political questions you might start struggling and it will show.

Work on your inner game. Meanwhile you can slowly work on being social, like starting a random conversation with random people on the street and it will help a lot. Eventually, you can start flirting, getting numbers and etc.
