Or not?
Just curious on if you guys prefer like a really confident woman over like a normal one?
Like I am not confident, I am more humble.. Well i am confident in certain ways, I am confident of my potential and confident of who I am on the inside. I know like God made me beautiful, or I feel like averagely good looking.. but I wouldn't say I am confident.
My Libguy compliments me constantly, but I have trouble accepting the compliments.. I always say like "Thank you" Or "no no.." Like I have trouble accepting them lol
I wonder if that gets on his nerves. Would it get on your nerves? As a guy.. or girl dating a guy, if you can switch the scenario around.

From my experience they do like confident women.

Confidence is a weird subject. People are confident about different things and view confidence and arrogance differently. But generally everyone agrees confidence is sexy, arrogance is not... neither is insecurity.
There are some things I am very confident about, some I am down right cocky. I have joked many times that "I"m not cocky, I'm confident". If you mix in humor with a bit of cockiness, it's magic. However, there are also things which I am insecure about. Everyone is like this too, regardless of sign.
You can be confident and humble. They are not mutually exclusive like say arrogance and humility.
As for dismissing his compliments, BelovedAssata and QLM are right. It always bothered me when I'd compliment an ex and they'd shrug it off or disagree. When he says you're beautiful and you say no... it will eventually make him stop saying it. At first he'll laugh and say you are even if you don't know it, but it'll wear him down. If you act like you don't like hearing it, he'll stop saying it. We try to keep things calm and agreeable and this is an easy fix. It doesn't hurt him not to say it and if you don't like it why should he continue?
We are generally optimistic, glass half full, people too. If you constantly turn down compliments it can make you seem negative. A bad self image is a pet peeve of mine (although I carried my own for a long time). Libras like to receive compliments so we give them out generously too. I know I have a mentality that "everyone is like me"... maybe more along the lines of the golden rule. I treat others how I want to be treated. I think this plays into our mirroring too.
