Courteney Cox Arquette claims she is "too shy" to date again.
The 'Cougar Town' actress – who announced last month she and husband David Arquette were undergoing a trial separation – has thrown herself into her work as she is worried about the prospect of going out and meeting someone new.
Asked if she was ready to date again, Courteney – who has a six-year-old daughter Coco with the actor – said: "Oh, man! Right now I'm not ready for anything. I'm just working and looking for some calm and some time to sit back and reflect. I don't know if I'd want to go back to dating - I might be too shy."
But the Hollywood star admitted if she did start seeing someone new – she wouldn't want to date anyone good-looking.
She added to Britain's Hello! magazine: "You know what would be really hard for me? To go out with someone who I thought was too handsome - someone who, in every way, looks better than I do. That would be really uncomfortable."
Courteney – who recently insisted she and David have no plans to divorce, despite their separation – also praised her estranged husband describing him as her "best friend".
She said: "We're the best of friends. It was never a horrible relationship, although obviously we grew apart.
"David is an amazing person. He has a wonderful soul and we get along very well. We're hoping that things work out for the best."
