Tired of being alone but not sure if you're ready to crawl out of your shell? Shy people find love all the time, so if you're one of them, it's time to go out on a limb. You really don't have to step too far out of your comfort zone to have a satisfying social life, including finding love. Before you even lay eyes on a date, it's possible to get to know the person online first. Online dating is tailor-made for shy people, who can hide behind their computer monitors, perusing the profiles of potential dates, anxiety-free. It's likely that interested parties will contact you first, leaving no need to initiate the first wink, message or email. Meeting people in person can be trickier, however. Obviously a crowded and loud bar isn't the place for the introvert who's trying to meet people.
