So after a few nitwits jamming me up, I have sworn off any woman except thsoe I meet in church. So I decided to try E-Harmony and so far have gotten some nice 'matches'. But not face to face meets yet. Any body have any experience with E Harmony? Thoughts? Tips? Advice? Some of the gals are really cute, but I want a church going gal, so my matches are limited in number.

As someone on this site so eloquently put it "Its hard to find romantic matches for a moody loner with an assault rifle."

This man speaks the truth.



I've enrolled in eHarmony a couple times, met a couple women, but came away disappointed. I'll stick to meeting chicks at college or church from now on.

I've read several threads where lonely members posted their profile on E-Harmony.


100% came back with: "We're sorry, you aren't compatible with any of the womenz here".

I think they should also be holding a current newspaper or magazine with date visible.

IMHO it's one of the better online dating services.  Not because of the pop psychology, but because it's expensive - that runs off everyone who isn't serious.

FWIW, I met my wife on eHarmony.

I joined in Jan 07, over the next 2.5 years I went out with ~12 girls, dated one for 3 months and I've been dating another for almost 6 months now.
If your matches arent working out for you, call customer service and tell them what you're looking for.  Their model equates political conservatism with religious conservatism, so that may be one trap you fall into unless customer service manually edits your profile.

I would say the most important thing is to have a trusted female friend help write your profile.

I filled out the profile,with my GF and 2 other friends helping,because I was insisting that even though she might not fully appreciate me,there were dozens of single mothers of 4 in trailerparks all across America who would lust over me.We answered it as honestly and accurately as possible and came up with "you have 0 matches in the eharmony universe".

Son stuck in Enid, OK at Vance AFB.  Son gets lonely.  Eniods do nothing for him.  Son joins eHarmony.  Son meets great girl from Springfield, MO.  Son marries great girl form Springfield, MO.  I just found out that we are getting a grandchild next June or so.  I think eHarmony rocks.  In their case it definitely worked.

Got a buddy who never dated in college, was pretty shy around the ladies.  Joined eharmony and ended up marrying the first girl on there he went out with (stood up in his wedding).  She is a great girl and they are very happy.  I think it helped that they had a common connection in they both went to the same college.

Expensive as hell in my opinion.  Have not had any luck with it, tried it twice before.  After striking out with every other option over the last year+ I'm considering putting my tail between my legs and going back.  Waiting for for price special before I join though.

Eharmony is the only dating site where I've heard a TON of people saying that they met their spouses there.  That's got to be worth something.  It doesn't mean that there is someone there for everyone, but it's definitely worked for a lot of people.

I met my fiancee on eHarmony 15 months ago yesterday.  We are getting married in 3 weeks!

She knows at least a half dozen couples who met on eHarmony and were married.

They developed a model that works well for matching certain personality types for the long-haul, I believe its 20% fall outside those types.  They were ordered by a court to begin matching gays and lesbians, even though they protested that they had not conducted any research into gay/lesbian relationships.

Many of them are pretty loony (some downright psycho.) Proceeds of the catch and release programs. I encountered a lot better quality of people with E-Harmony.

I can only speak to the women as I dont date men. I would imagine that would likely be the case as well, but that is just a guess.

Require full body pics that show her figure.  Muu muus not allowed.  



Require a recent face picture,  preferrably with today's newspaper, with visible date, in the picture.



After getting her full name and address,  check for her in courthouse records.





My eharmony experience probably belongs in the pit.






Let's just say I'm not freaked out by most anything.  Hell,  I worked in a FUNERAL HOME for over a year, no problem!

I worked for the ambulance service, too!   I've been a salesman!



But that date freaked me the fuck out!
