as it will show her how serious he is. However, if he thinks that is too daring, then suggest sending her a text message or calling her on the phone.
? encourage the guy to be assertive and not beat around the bush. Confidence is admirable,

4 Obsessive fear leads to anxiety, panic attacks and a variety of psychological problems. We all
know what it’s like to feel overwhelmed by fear, but fear, as it turns out, is a fundamental part of
our lives, and has some positive effects on our lives:
? Fear increases and enhances our sensory awareness of the environment, so that we can be prepared to protect ourselves from anything potentially threatening or harmful.
? Fear is an invitation to act. Fear is there to warn us that we need to get ready for the future. It isn’t there to stop us; it’s there to tell us that we are about to grow.
? Fear pushes us beyond our limits. Fear motivates us. It drives us to find new resources
and options within ourselves. Fear compels us to make extra efforts to succeed and achieve what we desire.
? Fear is necessary in developing our courage. We can’t experience courage without the presence of fear. They go hand in hand. They need one another in order to exist – like darkness and light, or black and white.

smashed into the car’s side door! He slammed on the brakes and drove the Jag back to the spot where the brick had been thrown. The angry executive then jumped out of the car, grabbed the nearest kid and pushed him up against a parked car, shouting, “What was that all about and who are you Just what the heck are you doing That’s a new car and that brick you threw is going to cost a lot of money.
