Ladies - Is it really all about confidence?

Question

I am a married guy who has always been and will always be true to my wife. My wife tells me I am good looking and she says her friends think so but I have never had women treat me like I was, so I always imagined that my wife was just being nice to me because she loves me.
Yesterday at lunch a woman at another table made it clear she was interested in me (making excuses to walk past the table and smile, getting up from her table and paying for her meal even though she hasn't finished eating yet so she could stand next to me, read my name and stuff off my work ID badge, kept getting in front of me trying to get me to look at her). My coworkers laughed about it and I admit is was a HUGE ego boost.
Last night I went to the grocery store with my now puffed up ego. I must have had six girls in there giving me the eye. That NEVER happens to me. Is it possible that confidence was all I ever needed? I am not going to misbehave now, but really - does it mean that much to you ladies?????

As a side note, my wife and other women tell me that apparently I was a very late bloomer. I got together with my wife when I was 21 and a scrawny geek but now I am 33 and do bodybuilding and have a great career, nice car etc. Apparently I am just missing cool clothes, so says my wife? I guess I am so accustomed to being a scrawny geek I never really noticed it change and always felt like a dork.
I am not going to run with this. Like anyone else, I just like to feel good.

Answer 1

Yes, confidence is a big part of what attracts women to men. And muscles help, too.
Your wife is lucky. And so are you.
Don't let it go to your head, big guy!

Answer 2

YES! Confidence is very attractive and to me there's nothing more attractive than a man who carries himself with confidence. Now there's a big difference between someone who's confident and one who's too full of themselves and the latter is a big turn off.

There's nothing wrong with wanting to be admired by the opposite sex, even though you're married. It does give you an ego boost and reaffirms that you are still desirable. It's part of being human. Obviously since you're married, there's a line you shouldn't cross and if your wife feels uncomfortable with you looking at other women while in her presence, you need to give her the respect and try to be more discreet when you're with her.

Answer 3

properly, i imagine all 3 are major. initially, a guy has 2 have attractiveness because that's what attracts the female in. we received't examine out a guy & say "he sounds like he has a mind-blowing personality". So we ought to have 2 be attracted 2 what's on the outdoors 2 locate out, ceremony? so a strategies as self assurance, females can smell it a mile away. Its in ur walk, the way u gown & how u paintings jointly with the human beings ur with. So if u have all that & ur personality is tremendous. Ur quite a lot a winner in my eyes :)

Answer 4

A man with confidence is a very sexy thing. But too much confidence is not. Cocky men are a huge turn off! But sounds like you got your stuff together...good luck.
