only you can decide for sure but it's natural to be doubtful and even scared fo some people to begin with.

rather than looking for a partner what about looking for someone who is willing to mentor you,and maybe joining a local munch group to help give you some insight and a sense of if its right for you or not.
you need to be clear and honest with anyone you do meet it would be unfair to give out the wrong signals people would understand and be appreciative of you honesty

as we are forever saying there's no rush,take your time think about it before you come to any firm decisions.
