>>17734650You don't need to be a confident stud, babes. I mean, you are who you are, and it's perfectly normal to not know how to respond to compliments. I mean, most artists can only see the imperfection in their work, anyway.
You'll find someone who likes you for who you are, and if it takes some time for you to warm up completely, they'll wait.
Hell, the only way I ever seriously started talking to the person I'm with was through internets. Our first date was basically us not looking at each other.
TL; DR : You don't need to focus on what you aren't. Focus on what makes you happy and the rest will follow. There's no formula, and there's no "alpha male" thing you have to adhere to. Those guys are usually insecure douchebags anyway.
