Oh, I'll bite.

Hello. I'm Jonathan and I'm an alco... wait, wrong group.

I joined EHA because it seems like the most mature forum related to a dating site, and I do enjoy discussing, pontificating, theorizing love and life. I'm also taking advantage of this free option while I shed some extra weight and consider Round 2 of eharmony.

So is there hazing now? Will it involve paddling?
No hazing from me as long as you follow the Community Standards!

Welcome to eHarmony Advice, we are glad to have you and look forward to seeing you all over the boards! If you're working on physical fitness goals definitely check out our eHarmony Advice Shape Up Club.

Hi everyone,

I'm a bit shy so its kind of weird for me to be posting intros like this but I thought what the heck I already made a crazy rant on the virgin thread so I might as well just introduce myself before people think I'm the crazy cat lady next door.

I'm Fayth, but of course that isn't the name I was given when I was a kid because like most Asian kids I was given a very complicated sounding Asian name which is a terrible tongue twister although an interesting conversational piece.

An interesting fact about me?
Hm, I'm a pretty straight up person and though I have a very adventurous and adaptable personality I have not done many things my age group normally has out of choice - clubbing, etc - perhaps it was meant to be but I have a mild allergy to alcohol so it makes my job very much easier to avoid it.
But I do love horror movies. So I guess the interesting fact would be that although I love horror movies I am absolutely scared of horror flicks and spend most of the 1 1/2 hour peeping through my fingers and palms while watching it.
I'm in the arts industry so I have a terribly overactive imagination and these horror movies don't help at all! But I can't help loving to watch it!
Same goes for video games.

I love animals, walks, cycling, art, video games, cooking, making a beautiful home, religion, debating, writing long novels and travelling (did I mention I'm scared of flights too? :P).

I came to eH by accident, really.
I saw an interesting article on yahoo! and though am not in the habit of leaving comments I decided to post a comment. I had to sign up so I did, but the threads here are very interesting so I thought perhaps it would be nice to stay a while and get to know people.

So that's about it I guess.
Welcome Fayth! Glad you found us -- yay Yahoo! While you're here be sure to check out 2 Groups that I think will interest you:

Horror Movies and Video Game Addicts Unite

I'm sure you'll find them interesting (though maybe a little scary and addictive).

Hi Lori et al.

I'm a Newbie to eHA, but not a lurker - just like in RL, I pick and choose the conversations I'll jump in on. I'm a paying eHarmony client and stumbled upon the boards by clicking on one of the advice articles on "the other side".

Let see... what can I tell you of interest?

I'm quickly becoming dissillusioned with eHarmony and will likely not renew my subscription when the time comes. Oh... and I have the ability to independently move, pick things up with, and cross my toes. Crazy Canadian!

- G.
Hey G! Sorry to hear that you're not happy with your experience so far. I trust you've seen the Using eHarmony forum and are posting there for input and advice from other subscribers? If not I really recommend it -- and consider reaching out to Customer Care for input on your profile and experience as well. They can really help you out by taking a look at your profile and such and making recommendations to improve your success. I've worked for a lot of websites and I've honestly never seen this level of care given to customers...so please do give it a try if you haven't already!

Glad you're here in Advice with us!

I've been trying to cross my toes the entire time I've been writing this post...yeah.....that's not a talent I'm blessed with!

Hi everyone.

I'm a 47-year-old, single mom of four, grandmother of one, with three teens at home. I've been divorced for three years. I have NEVER dated before, (my ex-husband and I met as kids and were just pretty much always together or in touch) so I guess I have a LOT to learn!!! It has taken a long time for my heart to heal, as my ex-husband is the one who chose to end the marriage, but I believe I'm finally ready to move on with my life. I don't feel I NEED a man in my life, but I feel that life would be more fun shared with a man who loves God and family.
>>
I've been a paid EH member in the past, but I am not currently a paid member. I came to EH with a question a couple of weeks ago and have posted a little bit, but I have mostly been lurking. I don't feel I really have all that much to offer others on here, as I've not dated. These boards have so much helpful information, and I appreciate all of you who take time to post.
>>
As far as an interesting fact about me…hmmm…I guess it would just have to be that I've not dated, yet I'm 47, or that I've earned the label "groupie" because I now follow four Christian bands around at coffeehouses and other functions. I've recently rediscovered how much fun it is to get out and listen to live music! I feel like I'm a teenager again!
>>
Thanks again to all of you who keep these boards going.

>>
Blessings.
Hi hopeful! Welcome to Advice! You're probably unique here (and some might say LUCKY, lol) in that you have never dated but you're definitely in the right place to get some good support and advice as you jump into it. It's truly the most exciting, sometimes scary, exhilerating, sometimes frustrating experience out there but the reward is to great it really is worth all the risks (in my opinion at least )

I don't know if I agree that you don't have much to offer here -- you're a woman, and we have LOTS of men here who value a woman's input and perspective. Plus the great thing about Advice is that it's a great place to make new friends, and friendship is one of life's greatest treasures so that's a lot to offer too.

Maybe once you're used to things around here you could start a Group for folks who are "New To Dating". We get lots of divorced folks who haven't done it for 20+ years and when it's been that long it can definitely feel like a whole different ball game from when you were last in it!

Glad you're here!!!

Hi Everybody, I'm new to the boards but not to the other side. I've been over there for a year now.

My random fact... I love to read, I have over 1000 books in my apartment, I can sit down with anything and be content. Most recently it's been "What if" histories.
I got out of the military 6 months ago and I'm finding it a bit awkward to be on the civilian side again, hopefully school takes care of that.

D_Lion... um, can I pass my kiss on to someone else?

Oh yeah. Go Yankees!
GO YANKEES indeed! Woo hoo world champs!

1000 books, boy I'm jealous. I rarely get time to read for pleasure, I have a small stack of books piled up that I want to read.

Not sure if you've noticed but we have an entire board dedicated to Books! I'm sure you'd have a lot to add to those conversations

Welcome to Advice!
