I am presently experiencing some "communication" difficulties myself. Reading some of the catch phrases in this article is like reading exerps from the emails I have had sent me. I must admit, if in fact this article is true it would be a bit unsettling (which I hope they aren't).Maybe someone out there can help me out....are guys really this complex to figure out? I mean, after all the harping that we women get about dropping hints and how we just need to say what we mean,  when the vail is lifted we see that the need for transpancey does not just lie at the doorstep of us single gals. I, for one, believe that while maintaining complete honesty is of the utmost importance it is in fact easier said then done. Both individuals have to be committed to being open and transparnet.I hope for the good of my present relationship that much of this article is not true. I want to believe that he is being forth coming and not just trying to avoid saying what he is really feeling, but I will keep you all posted. Time will tell! Any male insight would be appreciated!

Well, it looks like some comments dredged up an old article, and I just have to say ... horrendous.

And when I say, "Horrendous ..."

what I really mean is:

98% "eHarmony Staff --- Gender-bashing drivel. This was bad, and you should feel bad."

2% "I always criticize your articles, because they are almost always terrible, but at least it wasn't by Rori Raye or Christian Carter with a link to an email newsletter."

I thought this article was pretty funny. About 99.999% of the profiles I read say they are honest (like anyone is going to confess to be a compulsive liar!) and say the most important quality they are looking for is honesty. And yet it seems double talk is the name of the game when it comes to relationships/dating.
