How To Overcome Embarrassment About Online Dating

How can I overcome embarrassment about online dating?

A lot of people talk to us during our online dating coaching about being embarrassed, that they don't want people to know that they're doing online dating. It's six degrees of separation. Everyone you know has either been online themselves, or knows someone who's done online dating. Embarrassment in online dating is a very common feeling, so much so that we put that word in the title of our book. As a coach I tell people, “You basically have two choices: be embarrassed and be alone, or suffer some minor embarrassment.” I've suffered some minor embarrassment; it was a long time ago because I've been happily married for three years now.
