I think what holds most of us back from meeting that special someone is our own doubts.

No, he/she wouldn't like me, he/she wouldn't be interested, he/she is too good/beautiful/handsome/clever/smart/wealthy/you-name-it. That's what runs through the back of our minds. Our own self-doubt. It paralyzes us, so we do nothing.

But CS is designed to be safe. If you email or flower or ecard someone here, the worst that can happen is....nothing. So what's to lose?

I think we might all be a lot happier (and CS might run out of business) if we could all just be a tad more bold, and take that first step. What do you think?

Oh well in that case what holds us back most on this site is not our own self-doubts, but our doubts about the reality of what we see on other people's profiles.
Those that do appear too beautiful/handsome/wealthy are more often than not fake pictures and fake incomes
Those that appear to good or you-name-it are often as not lying
Almost none of the profiles appear too clever or smart

Ah yes Cin. There's so much to win, and nothing to lose, so why not? As a certain shoe company advertised, Just Do It.

The philosophy that brought me here also comes from a shoe company.

Ok let's suppose the person who interests you here is, in fact, lying, and their profile has as much to do with reality as Harry Potter. Still, what's to lose by taking that first step? Maybe they're NOT lying. Maybe they really are a 4-time Quidditch Champion.

Travolti is my favorite movie of all time!

But we're getting off-topic. You said you were bold, in your own way. Care to share? Did it pay off?
