Whatever you do, don't get into a desperate mindset. There are people who can sense it, and will use the crap out of you, if they get their hooks into you. You might get sympathy from a kind woman, but she will never respect you.
You don't have to be a dickhead to be confident. A little self-deprecating humour can be good. Joke a little about your foibles. Also, you really can't go wrong with "Because I'm awesome" with a little bit of a laugh. It shows you think well of yourself, but you know you are not a god.
Also, don't run out to the bars or social events with an end-game in mind. Don't marry every woman you meet and like (in your head). You will devastate yourself that way. Finding out that someone you like, doesn't want a relationship with you, shouldn't be the end of the world. Female friends can be good sounding boards about what might make you marketable, right? So do not alienate the ones that get away.....
