Skepticism is healthy. If we just automatically trusted everyone who said we were pretty we could be in some really bad situations. It doesn't mean you shouldn't attempt a date now and then thought. Worst thing that happens is you find out you don't want a second or third one. I dated a guy for 8 months before I really decided it just wasn't what I wanted. The nice thing thought is when we are clean we are able to be a good judge of character and become more comfortable with having boundaries. Trust your gut, but take some calculated risks....it can be fun
