I have noticed this. Some guys are actually confident, but a lot of beta guys with fake confidence also make girls submit to them. As a guy, I pick up on fake confidence from a mile away. It is SO cringey to see these guys act fake confident and watch the girl submit to them instead of calling them out. I thought females were supposed to have higher emotional intelligence? Is it that they can't pick up on it? Or they can, but they are even less confident so they lack the confidence to call him out on it? But if the latter is true, why would they end up going out with the guy when they can get a true alpha instead?

Personally, I just CAN'T use fake confidence on girls because I fear that they would call me out on it then it would cause the most cringey and awkward feeling ever. Also, while I'm acting fake confident I would want to cringe because it is so hard to get myself to do such a cringey thing. I have "tested" this on a 3/10 and it succeeded (she submitted to me instead of calling me out on it), but I felt akward and cringey as hell so I never want to do that again.

But at the same time, I know this girl who was single, then I saw her many months after, and she has a SUPER CRINGEY fake confident boyfriend... he is the type who constantly trys to say something funny yet it comes out awkward, try hard, retarded, and cringeyx100. He was not buff or good looking either, just on the same level as her.

So is it worth it to act cringey/fake confident?
