Mindful Meandering has Profile Stress:
Putting together our adoption profile was very intense and extremely stressful. How on earth do you adequately capture on paper the essence of why a woman should choose you to raise her child?? How do you come across as likable?
There is a hard profile to write, this makes writing a profile for yourself on a dating site look simple. What would you write about yourself in an adoption profile? (Assuming you were in that situation, of course). It would be really hard just to start, to feel safe in being sincere about your wishes to adopt versus sounding like you were a selling yourself like a used car salesperson.
