Think about it. That is where confidence in dating begins. Imagine the most beautiful person you know, but somehow you’re able to control their social media likes and rejections. They will start off confident because they like what they see in the mirror. However, if positive feedback/validation never gets factored in then they slowly have to question their self assessment

This is what separates average men from average women. Average guy doesn’t get validated on their looks because women don’t give out validation unless the guy is ACTUALLY THAT FINE. Now this average guy just won’t feel attractive. As a result, less motivation to approach women

Average women get validated by men of various levels of attractiveness and this feeds their self image. Be it social media likes or flat out cold approaches, it counts as POSITIVE REINFORCEMENT. Now she thinks she’s beyond the average man and you can’t really dispute it since she has the validation and positive reinforcement to support this self assessment.

Society likes to harp on not caring what others think of your appearance…but it’s bullshit. If you desire the opposite sex you want to be seen as being attractive to them.
