eHarmony? Is it really that lame??
So, a few weeks ago, I started to fill out an eHarm profile. It matched me with a bunch of people, but I didn't officially sign up. I finally signed up tonight, after my sister and a friend convinced me that it was supposed to be better than Match. Went through the long profile sign up, etc.
I went to tell it to "find new matches" and it said "It couldn't find new matches for me at this time".WTF? AM I that picky? I guess I'm stuck with the original ones, which are a few weeks old so who knows if they are active and honestly, not one that I'm that impressed with. And the profiles seem to be lacking in originality. Not sure if that is eHarmony's design fault, the guys fault, my area, or what.
Anyways...I have 3 days before I can get a refund. And honestly, I'm thinking refund at this point.
Is it really this lame? I was expecting more. But I'm also impatient. I just don't want to waste the $ (I got a good deal and din't sign up for a long term contract thing).
Re: eHarmony? Is it really that lame??
It is....
Even though I know some people who have had good luck w/ it, I found it to be very expensive for the # of men it matches you up with and many of the men that were my matches were too far away (I know you can adjust this feature, and I can't recall the exact choices they give you, but I feel like it was either within 20 miles or within 60, so I chose the larger because I didn't want to rule out ones that were 40-ish miles away), or I was not attracted to.
eHarmony is about the lamest one out there
and the ratio of men to women is off... it is the only site where there are 2 women for every man. I hated it and thought it was a waste of money. Match is way better
insert sarcasm here:
My StbX had great luck with it while we were together and I was pregnant with our second baby. He got two matches right away!
end sarcasm
Are we??? That's fun. I mean there is no harm in trying right? The guys I met were nice, just awkward. It could be worse. Let us know how it goes!
I think location could have a lot to do with it. I am in LA and had good luck. I the guys that got past 1 date I met on eharm; all the match.com guys I met were one date wonders. Match was like a bar online to me.
My cousin, who is the same age as me and we are very similar in a lot of things, had horrid luck on eharm and met her current dh on match. They are in the DC area.
Ditto.
We're kind of going out.
Yah, there seem to be alot of "akwards" on there...but I guess perhaps better than players, etc. But I'd still like a fine medium of just normal and nice.
