So this is a question for you men on DS. Please bear with me because this might be long. I recently reactivated my account in a friendship and dating site in my country, which I joined a year ago when I realized that after my ex left I was once again "clueless" on how to meet people (that was a little before I became addicted to DS and ditched the other site!!). So, last week I visited this guy´s profile, which took a lot of courage for me since the site has this feature which lets you know who visits your profile. I liked this person´s profile because according how he describes himself we have a lot in common (hobbies, likes and dislikes, music...) and also because he was one of the very few who doesn´t have either an avatar photo at the beach, shirtless, striking a kind of "Calvin Klein ad" pose or a kind of an "ID" photo looking very serious with a tie and everything, looking 10 years older. I didn´t expect anything. On the next day, I was surprised to see a message from him, telling me he knows what is like to feel clueless as well and that he also has extreme tastes in music, just like me. I answered back, thanking him and making a joke about one of his comments, and he sent yet another message telling me that he hopes that I find everything I am looking for. I thanked him yet again and he sent me another message telling me that he is at my service. He hasn´t sent another message so far.

I really would like to get to know this person, but I´m really unsure about the "next step", so my question for you guys is: should I send him a message, just saying hi? would that be too straightforward or daring on my behalf? how do you feel when a woman contacts you? Thank you so much for reading so far!
