What are some characteristics of cockyness?

Apparently I get the feedback that I'm cocky, but I don't feel I am, at all. Im quiet, shy, keep to myself, feel im funny looking, i dont have low self esteem just uncertainties at times, I work out but just to escape from life, like my recess time, so yea ..

Update:

not like im crying about it at some corner, or kept up at night thinking about it, just wondered what it could be.

    Maybe people are misconstruing you acting like a butt hurt ****** as a cockyness, little bit ch

    People mistaken your quietness and shyness as arrogance or *********. They are misinterpreting you. I'm really quiet and introverted and often get negative results around people for it. Just do some small talk, nothing big, let people know you're a cool dude. Most importantly, don't worry too much about people think about you. You're your greatest critic!

    Cocky guys think they're hot sh*t, that everyone around them is lucky to be in their presence. Kind of like a lot of hot women, lol.

    Smile more. Let your true self out once in a while.

    And, don't worry too much if you are still in school people will find all kinds of things to pick on about others for silly reasons. It's their immaturity.
