The Shy Single: How to Overcome Shyness and Find Love Book

A practical, self-help guide to overcoming the negative effects of shyness on your love life: build self-confidence; experience happier and healthier relationships; improve every aspect of daily life. According to surveys, over fifty per cent of people live with some degree of shyness - and nowhere is this more problematic than when trying to form and develop a significant relationship. With Bonnie Jacobson's tried-and-tested, step-by-step approach, singles of all ages can learn how to: participate in lively conversation; 'work' a room; approach someone who looks interesting; ask someone out; handle sexual advances (whether making or receiving them); and navigate the world of online dating. First dates, party survival strategies, dealing with rejection, coping with intimacy and building a future are all discussed with sensitivity and the sort of practical advice that makes real change a possibility.
