    Confident people are confident because they are handsome, therefore their advances work more often than not, leading to more confidence.

    Confidence is not what makes someone attractive, it’s the other way around.

      True confidence is the assurance that who you are is good enough, not that you’re perfect and need no improvement, but that if you’re doing your best to respect other people that you deserve the same.

      If your “confidence” changes based on how others treat you, then it’s not truly self-esteem but rather pride and ego.
