i really get what you mean. Confidence can be faked you just have to radiate it and after a while you won't have tp fake it anymore because you will be confident and the sky will be the limit.
The thing is, I call it faking.
What it really is, is actual confidence.
Confidence isn't really an act, it is a state of mind. Anyone, I don't care who you are, can "act" confident, and when you are "acting" confident, you are confident. It's very hard to explain, only really possible to see and feel.
If you want to do an exercise. Go to the mirror and look at yourself. Pull your chest up slightly, your shoulders back even less so, and make the smallest smile you can. Just barely a smirk, and almost unnoticeable.
Now, instead of THINKING that you are "the man", "I can get anyone," etc, just act that mind state. Don't say things to yourself. Don't think anything. Just feel a confidence surge come over you. It's just like moving your leg. You don't think about it, you jut DO it. This is the same as confidence. Just DO it. Just BE it. Don't try and think it.
I do this before every room I enter where there are going to be people, just to make sure I am in that state; and when I am, I feel absolutely unstoppable.
