Without going deep into self love, it is possible to be confident with yourself, just by never thinking about it.

Game-I suffer the same thing!
I have to say, being unconfident is a real downside.
I look at some of my friends, who are chatting to girls easily all the time, and I think, "How do they do it!?"
I'm scared of embarrasing myself, so I don't say anything.

I have the same sort of problem.
I'm very unconfident, especially around girls! So I sort of know how you feel, Game.
