| Ladies, please explain what this means.. Posted: 8/9/2007 6:32:36 PM | Hmmmm......not particularly attracted to someone with a "confident" air myself because I get the impression that those with a confident air are looking for a fan club, and aren't really interested in me in particular. They're cute and fun, but I don't take them seriously.
What I find attractive is a man who isn't really aware of his looks, his is more outward looking than focused on himself. To me, that means he is interested in learning, and curious, and is paying attention to the world and not trying to attract attention.
That's who I am drawn towards. | |

| Ladies, please explain what this means.. Posted: 8/9/2007 10:15:15 PM | | Don't think it is any different, just think you were noticing more...you set out to prove to yourself you can do it... and you always have... you just stopped noticing...not the ladies... And most ladies here are right, we don't look always at your looks, or a few extra pounds...we want someone funny, and fun... someone we can just relax with... feel wanted and not have to compete for. | |

| Ladies, please explain what this means.. Posted: 8/10/2007 6:15:06 AM | Hey RD, Here to defend some of the "over 40's crowd.I almost exclusively only date women in their 40's....I'm 44.Yes they may have more responsibilities and things but they also have minds,know a hell of a lot more in the "how to please a man" department and aren't hung up or afraid of their sexuality.I guess they are mature enough to be real and in touch w/themselves.I don't know....Eye candy is great but I'll take a hot woman close to my age over a younger one,especially for a relationship.....ANY DAY! ......Bosoxx | |

| Ladies, please explain what this means.. Posted: 8/10/2007 10:04:18 AM | You can have confidence without arrogance or brashness. I'm struck about how many men on here say they are 'shy'. I'm positive some just put it because they think it allays some female fears. Me I find it a total turn off. I don't want Mr Mouse - but neither do I want Mr****rel! (oh dear, I've been censored. Think 'bird that crows in the morning') . I'm sure a lot of women feel the same. If you feel you have 'mouse tendencies' or confidence issues, male or female, you can turn it around yourself. You are what you think you are. The power of the mind is a wonderful thing. | |

| Ladies, please explain what this means.. Posted: 8/10/2007 11:12:11 AM | | Sounds like some of the guys need to catch an episode of the new "reality" show Pick Up Artist. The "trainer" has average looks (and an appreciation for eyeliner) and wears some outrageous threads. The women are all over it. I guess it works for a guy in a bar on the coast. In my neck of the woods folks would give him directions to the Gay Pride Parade or mistake him for a rock star and ask for an autograph. Anyway... just goes to show what a little attitude/confidence will do for a person. | |

| Ladies, please explain what this means.. Posted: 8/10/2007 4:43:34 PM | A confident attitude will go a lot further than just good looks.
Hey, I'm no raving beauty, but when I feel confident in myself, I definitely see a difference.
Just an example: I had this long, red tunic and black slacks that I loved and I looked GOOD in. Whenever I wore it, I certainly got attention. But I don't chalk it up to the clothes, because if that were all it was, then a young man half my age wouldn't have walked into a closed elevator door because he was so busy giving me the once-over and whistling.
I liked how I looked in that outfit, so I subconsciously carried myself with more confidence. | |

| Ladies, please explain what this means.. Posted: 8/11/2007 6:25:48 PM | Self confidence does not mean arrogance.....that is where the "attitude adjustment" should come in. Big difference in those two things. Anyone (male or female) who carries themselves with confidence in themselves, which means they also know what they DON'T know, is someone who stands tall can look you in the eye, smile and just enjoy life!
JMO of course as I confidently sign off! | |

| Ladies, please explain what this means.. Posted: 8/11/2007 9:16:33 PM | When a man shows attitude he is on my list of do not even bother with. I figure its the attitude that got them single in the first place. If its an attitude used when they were young I usually find it stupid that they have not grown out of it either. If its a I'm so great look at me attitude I figure oh my one that wants someone to sit and tell them how great they are. Since I'm not good at kissing up to get what I want or think its what I want its a big waste of time. My silent thought as I look at them is usually Jerk which puts a smile on my face since I figure I know something they are clueless about. | |

| Ladies, please explain what this means.. Posted: 8/14/2007 6:22:37 PM | I think that you were noticed because you were sending out a different vib. You were noticing others and therefore they were noticing you. Thoughts have energy and those around you were probably feeling your energy. Also at that moment you were open to receiving the non verbal messages of others. Does this make sense?
I do, however, know what you are saying. Things to change as we age. | |

You are kidding me right? Seriously, being confident has nothing to do with looking to be in a fan club. Being confident has nothing to do with being cute and fun. Cute and fun could be just part of their persona.
For example. If you hire a lawyer or need to see a doctor, do you want them to be confident in knowing their profession? I certainly would. Otherwise, I wouldn't be a client or a patient.
I would rather surround myself by confident self aware people. These are people who know exactly what they want in life, and obtain it.
That is one quality about myself that I would never give up. It has nothing to do with winning a popularity contest either. | |
