Stress

Make sure they don't take peacocking too literally.

The stress really is for your clients, not for you. Going on a first date or a blind date is extremely stressful. Setting one up—not so much.

The only stress you'll feel is if you fail and set up a string of bad matches. Word of mouth is everything in this business and if you get a bad rep for not doing your job well, you'll be out of the biz. Oh yeah, and the whole dealing with crazy people part, too.

Hey, at least it adds spice to your life.
