E-harmony?

[rhymes]

I'm on eharmony as is a good female friend of mine.

 

Personally, I've dated four women off eharmony since I joined six months ago, although my intention is to be in a committed LTR. I'm 28 btw.

 

All the women who exactly who they said they were, beautiful with great careers, but for one reason or another, it didn't work out for either of us.

 

Now the girl I've been seeing the past month is also off eHarmony, although she lives 7 hours but in my hometown, we spent Christmas break together and keep in contact daily (tho I need to start a thread about some of the things popping up with a long distance dating and some of the sign she's giving me, but that's for another day).

 

That said, my female friend has had a really tough time finding guys to connect with in the same city. Another good male friend of mine is also on eharms and between the two of us, we could have a date every weekend.

 

It's seemingly full of great women who seem to have a pretty good head on their shoulders, though I'm not sure how many quality guys are on there (aside from myself that is!), but that is just from one girls perspective.

 

Also after you complete your first subscription, they'll send you deals at a much better rate to keep you coming back. Initially I think it was $40 + a month for three months, now it's down to $20 for three months with their "special offer".

 

For what it's worth, I have nothing but good things to say about it. I'd only say I get one "quality" match per week, of someone I find attractive and who I find compatible (but I'm pretty picky). I work weekends so it's tough for me to get out, so for someone like myself it's perfect. It really depends what you're looking for. If you're not looking for a LTR, I'd suggest POF or something else cheaper. Way too much money if you aren't serious IMO.

Except you really weren't over your divorce because you were still confused and didn't know what you wanted. That is why I don't date men who've been divorced less than two years, no matter what they tell me.

 

 

 

Trust me i'm over my marriage. I split with my wife in Sep 2009 so it was actually 3 years since my split.

 

I fell for Girl A Sep 2012 on the spot & we would of been a couple except she was working out of town on an 18 month contract. It's all we talked about & it got in the way of our relationship. If she was working here full time it would of been "on" & I wouldn't of gone back to the online dating website as I found what I wanted.

 

What stuffed me up is I had to many options. I learnt a huge lesson. I jumped back online & had another date lined up in a matter of days. That would not happen in the real world. She & I got on really well too but I couldn't get Girl A out of my head & it all went pear shaped.

 

It had nothing to do with my marriage , it had to do with Girl A working out of town.

 

Now I feel i'm grieving two women at the same time as I couldn't work out who I wanted to be with & they both didn't want to be the other woman. I lost them both. I'm not in a situation where I could date anyone again as I have to heal again. So back to square one for me as I fell for them both.

 

There is no way I would not of got myself in that situation in the real world. I only met two women in three years from conventional dating. One was at the gym I go to in October 2011 & the other I met at a bar March 2012.

Why are you paying 60 bucks for a relationship site when you don't want one? Wouldn't it be better to use a casual encounter site?

Most women want relationship material men even

for casual encounters. This is so incase they like

The guy a relationship might form rather then some

Guy from a casual encounter site walking in and jusr

Expecting to shove his dong in you blow a load then

Leave

eHarmony is meant for people who are seeking long-term relationships leading to marriage. When you sign up and fill out the personality profile, you specifically have to indicate that you are looking for such a relationship, otherwise it will weed you out and say you're not fit for the site. So, if someone is on eH and is looking for casual fun and no commitment, they have been deceitful at the outset.
