Fake confidence is miles away from a real one. A keen eye can see the difference immediately.

It doesn't mean even fake one can't make a difference, depends on 'target', it maturity, intelligence etc. But if you expect a lot from the opposite side, you need to deliver at least as much, the more the better.

Agree with appearance, its a bit silly game but it works so who am I to question it.




>Fake confidence is miles away from a real one.

No doubt about it. Many people can tell how forced it feels. Yet, w/o any confidence (fake or otherwise), there won't be any steps made - hence no progress. Again, with time confidence can be 'mastered'.
