This book would be something if it was written 10 years ago or so, but today it's more of informative then of practical value.26 of 28 people found the following review helpful.Poorly written and more likely to increase anxiety than "cure" loveshynessBy Mr. Liam MurrayI bought this book expecting, based on Talmer Shockley's website, that it would be written by someone that has an expertise in sorting their own problems out and is self-sufficient. What I expected was a snappy, well presented book that focuses on solving the problem and trying not to think too much about why we are loveshy.The first few pages do get off to a great start - some of the misery guts loveshies on the internet forums need a kick up the arse and he does go in with the intent of doing that.On the whole, however, the book isn't to the point - about half the book is spent going into huge details on scientific definitions and general irrelevancies while a lot of it is written with a tone of frustration and twisted bitterness. This helps no one - it does not raise awareness of the problem to non-loveshies as he comes across as a loser and hence will not be heeded and for loveshies it distracts them from the basics of just sorting the problem out. There's plenty of texts out there that focus on emotional intelligence and anxiety that better explain how to improve your quality of life and raise awareness of the hidden perils of anxiety.The whole approach is clunky - Shockley's approach to dating is to develop a myriad of skill sets to fulfill a list of dating criteria and somehow hold them together to attract a partner. This whole approach can only lead to increased anxiety and failure.The female section is a massive disappointment - In his advice to women that are shy about sex he suggest to simply to buy a vibrator and explore their sexuality. It doesn't come across well and would turn me off if I was woman (although I probably wouldn't go near this book in the first place if I was). This underlines a problem in how loveshy people come across - it's not in our second nature to be eloquent and sensual.The therapy section is informative - not many books or texts reveal that sex therapists don't even know if they could help loveshies and he does clarify that Gilmartin's "practice-dating" therapy doesn't exist.Loveshies exhibit classic signs of anxiety - being misunderstood in general, having idiosyncracies, feeling they are living a life that isn't them (almost like it's a different person) and in some cases being misunderstood to be gay/asexual, but Shockley (and Gilmartin before him) have failed to link these symptoms to anxiety. The irony here is that taking a short course of CBT therapy to manage social anxiety and adress these problems (without even thinking about dating) would have significantly more chances of success than spending 6-12 months absorbing all the suggestions in this book. What therapists note is that managing anxiety well can help you do a lot of things in more of a second nature kind of way and this includes dating.5 of 6 people found the following review helpful.Pseudo-scientific confusion for those with Social AnxietyBy loveofphysicsIf you are so overcome with anxiety that you cannot have healthy dating relationships, then you probably have Social Anxiety disorder. Nothing wrong with that, just seek help from legitimate Mental Healthcare sources, not this mishmash of pseudo-science. The Mental Health Industry is very helpful these days and a few months to a year of intensive work with a therapist or group on CBT will help you immensely more than the nonsense in this book. Please do get help if social anxiety is hindering your life, it is out there, but don't get bogged down with this book. It will waste your time and confuse you, trust me.See all 6 customer reviews...
