Shygirl15 Posted September 19, 2008 Posted September 19, 2008 How long have you been on there for? Three months I would say is a fair go at it if you can afford it and if it is at least producing one or two matches every so many days. I officially joined yesterday, after 3 months of struggling to complete the questionaire. They sent me only 3 useless matches yesterday. Today I got nothing. I wonder why they feel they HAVE to match people for God's sake, how about allowing people to search for their own matches, the way every other dating site does?

They should give you a pool of compatibles and you should do your own matching. I am getting frustrtated just hearing you talk about it. So maybe we should stop I don't want to be a Debbie Downer for you...

I don't feel as bad anymore. HiItsMe..buddy, so sorry for hijacking your thread for a moment, so let continue with common things on profiles..lol

Realistically you did just join and a month is not long enough to gauge how these things will pan out, and $60 is not a ton considering what you can potentially get out of it, for me personally just seems like the whole process would severly annoy me so I just don't have the patience for it. That's more what I was trying to say. Who is hitsme? and why does everyone keep refering to him in Bell's posts? Bells/Hits yes, sorry to hijack but it sort of kind of is within the realm of the general vecinity and close to the orginal topic is it not? ;)

I thought that was eHarmony's whole business model. The, "we aren't the usual online dating site where guys browse your pictures and profiles and send you emails to hook up" thing. It appears they make everyone fill out these extensive questionnaires and then you only get introduced to other memebers whose profiles are a "match" for your own in terms of what you find important in a mate. I assume that is to cut down on the contacts from people who aren't looking for the same things you are but are either desperate or who just think you are hot. Funny thing, I signed up for a free eHarmony trial once just to see what it was all about, I filled out all the questionnaires, as got a response which basically said, "We can't figure out what you want or who to match you with. There isn't anything we can do for you. Thank you for trying our service. Goodbye."
