How to Create your CS Profile
Your goal is to attract people who are interested in your unique and special qualities.
Think of your profile as a kind of bouillon cube that will convey the essence and flavor of who you are. You'll have time to make soup when you're actually corresponding with someone!
Avoid being too limiting in your description of the person you're seeking. Stay open to possibilities you might never even have considered.
For inspiration, you might browse the online listings.
