Question by ask m: How do men manage to stay so sure of themselves?
I was hit on by a man, twenty years older than I. He confessed to having three children, and his wife left him – not for another man, but to be alone, he got under her skin that much. He confessed to running away from paying child support, and for living off some woman he picked up and at her basement free of charge, no job. He said that he wanted a lot of things, but primarily a pretty young girl to tell him how wonderful he was, and who would go to bed with him for “no strings, just for pleasure”. He had a big bald patch on his head, beady eyes and red face. He said that he was “picky” and would not just go with any girl, twenty years younger than he, but a pretty one with an advanced education, a good conversationalist, her own place to welcome him, and making him laugh was a must. When I asked him why I would strive to be all these things and what would I get for trying that hard, he said: “You will get me!”
Now, I do not want any super feminist answers, or super macho answers like “he is a man, and you must do what he wants”. I’d like someone to explain to me how men – sad losers of them – manage to preserve such a good opinion of themselves. I am not bad looking, have an advanced degree, and a nice person, but when I am attacked like this, I doubt myself, and very insecure. Such men (he is only an example, I’ve met many like him, with similar issues) are nothing daunted. He looks at the mirror and says to himself: “I am an advanced middle age, with red face, bald head, wrinkled all over, can get it up barely, have three abandoned children, justice hunting me all over the country, no place to live, no savings, no looks, no job, no car, nothing, and I am a God’s gift to women, and I am picky about them.” I’d like to have some of their conceit, but can’t get how they do it.
What do they do to have such a high opinion of themselves and such huge egos, what do they do, what is the secret?

We are not all like this specimen, myself I don’t tell myself how wonderful I am, for the simple reason I know I’m not, I don’t wish to be supported by a pretty girl, that to me would mean I am a loser. I have had responsibility of 6 children and a wife to support and would never have had any desire to pass that responsibility to someone else.
They are simply con artists, they can convince other people, like they convince themselves that they have something to offer, I couldn’t understand any intelligent person being taken in by them.
