About online dating - eHarmony?

Hi, I'd like to hear your comments on eHarmony. I've tried it for almost 3 months already and to be honest, I'm not very satisfied with the service. I've received a lot of matches, but I've just got to have open communication with 3-4 guys. I haven't met none of them yet. Some days I don't even get matches at all. It's frustrating and I'd like to hear from you guys if it is usually this slow to get to know somebody. eHarmony has an offer right now of 3 months for the price of 1, but I don't know if I should give it a try or if I just should give up on this online dating thing. What's your advise or thoughts about it? thanks!

Hi Latina,





I have never tried/subscribed to eHarmony.


Have been a member of Yahoo Personals and although it gives you multiple matches, and you are free to openly communicate with anyone you like, there are a lot of "pretenders" and game players.





Personals sites are one way to meet other singles who are actively part of the social scene. But I would not use it as your sole method of meeting others.





I have met a few people thru personals. You still have to be cautious, meet in a public place, be careful of what info you reveal about yourself until you have a solid connection, etc.





good luck ~
Reply:i have to agree with you.. i did it for awhile.. and i used their free weekend.. but ive gotten to open communication with maybe 5-6 guys and of them ive met one.. we've turned out to be ok friends so far.. the last 2 or 3 guys have turned out to be liars.. simple lies.. but still with online things.. there has to be some line..and when your trying to be trustworthy.. lying is out..





ive pretty much gave up on dating.. i figure if im met to find a guy.. they will drop from the sky and fall in front of me at this point..
Reply:I've tried many sites and been almost totally dissatified with them. They are a fun way to pass time and take personality tests but don't plan in finding Mr.Right in www land.
Reply:Yes it does take a long time just to get to know someone. And with online dating you need to be taking your time. You have no idea if what these guys are telling you is true or not. Take your time.
Reply:I tried eharmony, but never actually subscribed to it. It seems kind of weird. Not really that personal, it's all preset lists with answers and stuff. I did match.com with a subscription and I thought it was a little better. People can write descriptions about themselves and you get a little better feel of how they are. I went out with girls from match plenty of times. Nothing really came out of it, but I made some friends that I still hang out with so that's kind of cool. I ended up dating a girl that I met on my own...
Reply:you dont need to try eharmony-honey try me.its not easy to find match on any web-its the way you look and your karma.you should keep on trying.
Reply:give up on it. Go 2 the mall and meet people there.
Reply:eHarmony is a wierd service, it is trying to match make on-line rather than letting you decide who is your match. I don't think their success rate is close to match.com for instance where you have the power to decde. After all, you should know who fits for you, not some geek playing matchmaker behind the scenes.
Reply:I thin k there are better sites theneharmony, but overall I think the success rate of on line sites is low. It is really difficult to find a match to even get to the poing of meeting in person
