I have changed my profiles several times following advice provided in your articles. I have been a member of EHarmony for the past 2 months and have yet to recieve one interested male.


I would appreciate having my profile reviewed and recommended changes. So far, this dating site has offered nothing but further rejection.

I am 56 years old. On my profile I am listed as being 66 which is an error consequently it was suggested by eharmony.ca that I ask for matches betwwen 65 and 88. Horror! I tried to correct this in my profile but I couldn't.


I look young for my age and like older wine, I have aged very well. I have a university education with a Masters in English Literature. I realize that younger people are attracted to this dating site which is a pity. With eharmony.com there are people of all ages. I find Canadians a more conservative lot than Americans and Europeans.


I would like help with my correct age in my profile as stated above and anything else you may suggest.

I need help in communicating that, at 71, I am usually mistaken for being in my early 60s. Not because I look that much younger, though I'm told I do, but because my attitude toward life retains some child-like attitudes. And I love to laugh.


I am more interested in intellectual and emotional closeness than I am in sex. I believe sex is important, but not the most important aspect of a relationship.


I would like to think there is, somewhere in Canada, a man who is looking for someone exactly like me. My husband and I found each other in late life, and I dare to hope for another miracle.

I was a science - not english major. Powerful, concise descriptions and self editing are not my forte. I know that I have many wonderful qualities and a local friend called me a "prize catch" - must be using the wrong bait.....


I have been with eharmony for 18 months and the matches just keep closing.


After reading the advice to April 2008 I am convinced I need some guidance. Please help me.

I'm officially throwing my hat in the ring! 360 some odd matches later and few will actually initiate communication or respond to my requests. I am an attractive single Mom with alot to offer but I'm afraid that in my effort to communicate that I've bogged down my profile.


I am looking forward to your expert advice!! Thanks!!

I would love to have a makeover of my profile. I have been on eharmony on and off since 2003, met a guy and have been in a relationship on and off with him for over 4 years. However, he won't commit, and it's time to move on. I'm young, attractive, and have a lot to offer. How do I communicate that I am looking for someone who wants to commit - as in get married - and have kids, without it sounding like a turn-off? Please help! I'd appreciate any advice you might have!

Hi there,


Like the lady you chose to do the profile makeover on, I am also a woman in her 50's. I am attractive, vibrant, fun-loving, caring and sensual. I would like to know how to convey this to potential matches in the best possible way.


I have been alone for a while now and would love to find that special someone who's just right for me. I know he's out there somewhere, maybe with your help I can find him.


Thank you
