Be it to impress a first date, prospective in-laws, or one's boss, many people have a tendency to overcompensate, or adjust their normal behavior.

This is all done in the hopes that they'll impress these people by showing off their enormous wealth, remarkable intelligence or the like.

In doing so, however, their efforts to impress don't often succeed.

In fact, they might inadvertently find themselves putting these people off, resulting in an even bigger uphill battle than they began with.

Redditor NeonRunaway was curious to hear what things people tend to falsely believe come off as appealing to others, leading them to ask:

"What’s not nearly as attractive as people think?"


Your voice is the only thing about you that's deep...

"Dudes that are trying to do deep voice because of TikToks."- ashucream

Eventually, they'll stop chasing...

"Playing hard to get."- groovy604

I must be right if I'm talking this loud!

"Loud, assertive confidence."

"When you're not an expert on the topic."- Hullaba-Loo

I can smell your desperation from a mile away...

"Guys who drown themselves in cologne."- shoegazer44

You can impress me in other ways

"I am told that exotic sex positions are incredible awkward and physically difficult which will turn you off quickly."- Psychological_Dish75

I'm rich, therefor I must be desirable!

I" have a buddy who is constantly showing off his cars, watches, and shoes."

"He’s single and I’m convinced he’s doing all that to find a girl."

"It's not as impressive or attractive as he thinks it is."- dkwatkins28

Why has it become so difficult to talk?

"Those horrendous jacked up lips everyone is getting."

"Y’all look like you’ve had an allergic reaction."- Gr00vemovement

"Those massive lips."

"Just looks like you got stung by a bee."- level 1dana_ranger

The viral sensation that feels more like a virus...

" Tiktok boys biting their lip and rubbing their hands."

"One woman who stitched one boy like that said it right: you look like a housefly."

"Stop it."- Somniatora

Confidence, not arrogance

"People hear 'confidence is attractive', and think its attractive to be a huge obnoxious d*ck who thinks they're better than everyone and doesn't care about how they treat others."

"Confidence in yourself, like knowing who you are, what you like and being okay with it is attractive."- pancakepegasus

The best way to make a strong first impression is by showing others who you really and truly are.

Not by simply showing off.

As prominent MAGA minions, like QAnon conspiracy peddler and former Georgia Republican Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene, have come out against MAGA Republican President Donald Trump, so too are some lesser known individuals.

Whether it's his Iran War, his continuing saga with the Epstein files, his utter failure to keep any of his campaign promises that they banked on helping them, or the abject incompetence of his hand-picked personnel, some members of MAGA are distancing themselves from the cult.

Trump Ripped For Somehow Making His 'Happy Mother's Day' Post All About Himself Without Any Mention Of Melania

President Donald Trump was criticized after he "honored" mothers on Mother's Day by attacking Democrats in a self-absorbed post on Truth Social, never mentioning his wife, First Lady Melania, who is the mother of his youngest son Barron.

Instead of acknowledging her and mothers around the country, Trump gloated about the economy and accused critics of having "Trump Derangement Syndrome," targeting Democrats and Jerome Powell, the Federal Reserve Chair he's been trying to push out of his administration.

Zach Galifianakis Expertly Lays Into Comedians Who Refuse To 'Challenge' Trump When He's A Guest On Their Podcasts

Actor and comedian Zach Galifianakis called out comedians who have had President Donald Trump on their podcasts and didn't "challenge" him, noting that they've effectively abdicated their role by not making jokes at Trump's expense or pushing back against things he says.

Galifianakis made that argument during a recent episode of Conan O’Brien Needs a Friend, where host Conan O'Brien remarked that few, if any, people have challenged a sitting president the way Galifianakis did when he interviewed then-President Barack Obama in 2014 on his satirical series Between Two Ferns.

Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy was called out after he encouraged Americans to take "road trips" as gas prices continue to rise as a result of President Donald Trump's war in Iran.

Republicans have faced pressure from constituents nationwide to address the rising cost of living, but Americans are feeling pain at the pump now that the Iran war, which the Trump administration kicked off in late February, has prompted a spike in gas prices.
