Human nonverbal and verbal courtship behaviors play an important role in signaling sexual attraction, romantic and dating interest to a potential partner. In addition to expressing romantic or sexual interest, flirting behaviors may be used to strengthen or intensify a dating relationship between individuals. Each person plays a role in influencing the partner and signaling that the other’s influence attempts are welcome. Research data on romantic relationships has shown that there are people with intimacy skill deficits in dating, flirting, and relationship initiation. Moreover, some people hold on dysfunctional beliefs and stereotypes that interfere with forming or maintaining a relationship. Romantic relationships are recognized to be an important factor for emotional wellbeing and competence in intimate relationships is also a vital indicator of healthy psychosocial functioning. Romantic involvement has been found to be positively associated with life satisfaction. The purpose of the skill class is to present the techniques and skills applied to the participants of the group intervention, based on Cognitive-Behavioral Model, mainly through experiential and interactive exercises. Group intervention takes place at the Institute for Behavior Research and Therapy and the participants are adults, men and women.
