Why? Why the fuck did I sign up for it a second time? eharmony must be the biggest god damned scam of all time. Let me tell you how it works. Sign up Do their stupid info gathering crap Upload a pic or two Look at your matches Now here's where things get interesting. In order to communicate with anyone BOTH parties have to be paying members. That RETARDED to begin with. How about EITHER paying member can initiate a bidirectional contact you chucklefucks? If you don't pay any money you will have members of the oppisite sex try to contact you. Oh how a multitude will try to contact you. But you can't do jack unless you pay. So you pay some money. You try to connect with them via the contact methods. They INSTANTLY dry up. You go through your matches trying to contact some potentials. Of course they don't reply. Your subscription runs out and SURPRISE! All the sudden people want to contact you! Its a fucking SCAM! And I'm calling eharmony out on it! Fucking con artists! Oh.. and I love the "close" messages people send. I often get the close message of "Other" or "You're too far away" which is a 30 minute drive away. There are a few preselected reply messages you can send back. Unfortunately, "You're a fat bitch" isn't one of them. -Foxxz |

Singlesnet.com is much much much better and costs way less...
Only one side need be a paying member to communicate. ETA: Before anyone says "but plentyoffish.com is free", pof sux! At least if you have to pay a couple bucks to communicate, you're gonna stand out from the herd. Every female on pof gets messages from every guy within 500 miles to sort through... |

Have a trusted female friend review your profile and help take a new picture.
I've had great success with eharmony, I went out with 12 girls over two years, one for 3 months and currently with another for 7 months (the first girl I'd met in person from eh, we'd stayed facebook/IM friends and reconnected shortly after the breakup with the 3mo girl), but you need the right attitude. Its not Plentyoffish or Match, its for people looking for real relationships. Kharn |

Quoted: Its a fucking SCAM! And I'm calling eharmony out on it! Fucking con artists! Yes, it is... they all do this bullshit 'bot messaging or similar to get you to pay. It's freaking lame. Oh.. and I love the "close" messages people send. I often get the close message of "Other" or "You're too far away" which is a 30 minute drive away. There are a few preselected reply messages you can send back. Unfortunately, "You're a fat bitch" isn't one of them. -Foxxz  Yeah, I've about had it with women who say they're "Average"....when did average become 300+ lbs? There are so many women who use the same deceptive pose, camera angle high looking down at their enormous boobs and you think "Oh, hey now..." but then if they bother to post any other photos, you can sometimes see the real deal. If you can't, then you might possibly hook up for coffee and then find out it's Shamu. Crazy shit. I've had a few successes, but not many. But the way I look at it, is the cost of one of the sites is really only about the cost of going and buying a single dinner out with one of them, so it's not that bad. But I'd steer clear of eharmony. Match.com is probably the biggest, although no less of a crock of shit than any other. I've had the best success with Yahoo personals believe it or not. Plentyoffish is just...meh... the quality of female who won't even pay for access to a site is pretty scary in comparison usually  |

DON"T FORGET TO TURN OFF AUTO RENEW!!!!
I didn't and got screwed out of $100!! All of the sudden I got an email saying my account had been renewed automatically with zero warning. 
Called customer service and bitched, but they just said "Well sir you were told this when you signed up" 
It's a giant scam, and all of the girls are fat and ugly. Meet girls the normal way. |

I have been on 3 dates this week and all of them are doctors but one, shes a yoga instructor. All eharmony. All here in Dallas. You're doing it wrong.  Internet dating works fine. It depends on how you look, what your personality is, and how much you make. In other words, it's dating. You just pay for someone to give you a list of available tail. What you do with it is up to you grasshopper. |

Damn those businesses, always trying to make money by luring customers in with their stuff that you have to spend money in order to use. Damnit. I'm callin you on that. Greed, and power is why we are where we are today in this country. World for that matter. |

I paid for eharmony for 3 months. It's probably just me, but I got 60+ matches, less than ten that would respond to communications, and only one date. The date of course was with a extremely liberal "preschool teacher" (professional diaper changer) that flunked out of college and thought Obama wouldfix everything. As a conservative software engineer at one of the largest technology companies in the world, I came to the conclusion that eharmony's matching algorithm is a seriously flawed. Then again, it's probably just me.
Quoted:
So are you charged whether or not you actually get any matches? Basically you sign up (for free), and it starts giving you "matches" profiles that do not contain contact information. You have to be a paying ($35/month) to communicate with those matches, and they have the be a paying member to respond to communications, or even to get a notice that you are trying to contact them. So, huge numbers of people sign up, but never pay up. The result is a huge pool of matches, but no way to contact any of the people you are matched with. Since signing up and creating a profile are free, well, you tend to get a lot of ghost matches these days. At some point in the past, eharmony charged money to create a profile, so the ghost matches are a relatviely new (last few years) thing for them. Quoted:
Why the fuck did I sign up for it a second time? You signed up twice? WTF were you thinking? |
