I'm sorry I just now got to read your thread. I just went through this last month... You have a lot of sound advice here, so I don't have much new to add. To reiterate a couple of points others have made: Take a measure of your current relationship

Hi Magellan. It's not as difficult as you'd think, indeed if an intravert like me can do it I'd say anyone else can. It's just a matter of learning how to make smalltalk, make people laugh, be honest without being scary and pick up people's emotion
