The sneak attack approach is so much more comfortable and natural than the usual ways we approach dating - small talk, stilted phone conversations, and games with unknown rules.

It is just hard to motivate myself to do it on my own. If I have some one pushing me like a friend of significant other, it becomes much easier and enjoyable. as an introvert i often find myself wanting to stay home by my self on the weekends, but I do enjoy going out.

I have always abhored dating and tended to avoid it, much to the dismay of friends and family. If I see it coming, I tend to panic and run or go along but still be all angsty and uncomfortable. Neither is effective. The sneak-attack describes *perfectly* my ideal situation. I'm so excited to have this vague unease put into words. Thank you! Great article!!!

Plus it is a long distance relationship. They are not a very talkative people on the phone nor via email. Any suggestions? Dear Nick,

That's a great way to meet people with out the dreaded small talk. You already have something to talk about. Plus, you know that they are not totally selfish, they're volunteering. Unless they've fractured some law and are doing community service. @Julie, You brought up something I didn’t think about, volunteering.

As an introvert, I am always turning down invites to go somewhere, but if someone ask me to teach them how to throw a pot on the wheel, or give a demo or volunteer to teach kids crafts, I'm totally there.

I touched on this briefly in this post, as we know introverts are not exactly into small town. Talk about their passion and you won't have any awkward conversation. In fact you probably won't be able to shut them up...I know that from experience. That person that you thought was shy, was in reality the total opposite. You just have to know how to get into their world. Thanks for the great feedback. I touched on this briefly in this post, as we know introverts are not exactly into small town.
