Fair enough, though when I was fat people always stated this as "you just need to be confident". What people fail to understand is that it's almost impossible to fake confidence and confidence in social situations is greatly influenced by how people react to you. When people (i.e. women) you've just met freeze the conversation with one word answers and other responses that lead nowhere, you can either monolog or abort. It's tough to just be cocky in isolation
