I'm not particularly attracted to confident women, which is probably why the answer to my original question has eluded me (until today, that is). However, your point is well taken. I can definitely see how confidence is indicitive of optimism/friendliness/enjoyable company. Naturally, most people want to be around optimistic people rather than pessimistic people. Good insight!
