Im humble at work and in many social settings. but im pretty well built, well dressed but pretty quiet. So women think im arrogant. Men well i dont give a fukk about those.

So yea it helps but you have to let your persona be felt.

There is envy and then there is respect..

First impressions are important-
My first career job I went to great pains to have acceptable clothes and fit the dress code
Yet.. anyone could see I rotated one belt one pair of shoes two pants and five shirts
But I stayed clean and had shirt tucked in etc
I could do nothing to out flash the established people...
But I could respect myself.. the company and career.. and the opportunity I had been trusted with
That in turn earned more respect from them than anything else I could have done

This question is related to social acceptance as well
At two extremes.. humble people of substance versus empty flashers
Depth vs breadth Etc

Personally.. I don't like my checks to bounce
So I can back it up
There's a time to put best foot forward
But there's no need to overbid
There are dangers to half stepping
And also dangers to being secretive and reclusive

So bottom line
It is like asking how big a lead off to take off first base..
Are you really a threat to steal second??
Or do you just want to be an alert base runner??

There's no reason for a grown man to be an attention whore or seek attention..thats some feminine shyt. I mean broads have to attract attention but thats like a primal instinct to get them chosen by males to procreate/marry or whatever. Stay low key man, stack your money up. The kinda broads you attract with that flossy shyt will be the wrong kinda broads.

All you gotta do with these chicks is just be mysterious and dont fukk it up :takedat:
