I'm going to a wedding this afternoon and the couple met on eHarmony about 2 years ago. I am going with a man I met on eHarmony and whom I've been seeing for the past7 months. The bride had been on for awhile and was ready to call it quits when one last match showed up... I had been on eHarmony on and off for a little over a year, met a couple of menbut it never really went anywhere. I had rejoined one last time and was ready to call it quits but after 2 months I got a match who was actually in my area. He had a simple profile but I wasn't expecting much because I had been disappointed before, but things so far are turning out great. The site can definitely work but yes, it does take a lot of patience. Good luck to everyone in search of love and congratulations to those who have already found it!

Dear Jade725,


I just came across your post and want to thank you for sharing the wonderful news of your friends' wedding and about your own eHarmony success.


If your friends haven't already contacted our Success Stories team, we would love to hear from them. The more we can learn from our Successful Couples, the better we are able to refine our matching system and improve our Singles Service for even greater success for our members. Additionally, should they choose to share their story on our Singles site Success Stories page or here on eHarmony Advice, we would love for them to do so. Also, you are welcome to contact our Singles site Success Stories team if you haven't already done so. They would love to hear your story and to keep in touch with you as your relationship progresses. Our Singles site Success Stories team can be contacted from the following link:

You mentioned that one of your friends and you, yourself, had been on the site for quite sometime before meeting that special someone. While we wish that all our members could find the love of their life in a relatively short timeframe, the fact is, that even on eHarmony, finding the love of your life is a process that takes time. I would guess that the both of you would now say that the time and effort you put into your search was well worth it.


Some members may become discouraged if they don't immediately feel a connection with matches based on their About Me page/Photo and then decide not to communicate. Also, some members may not be open to giving other matches a try based on disappointing experiences with other matches. I am so happy for you that you didn’t do so and that you communicated with your boyfriend despite the fact that “He had a simple profile" and you "had been disappointed before.”


I hope that your post will help others be patient and positive during their search and encourage them to communicate with their matches before deciding they aren’t that special someone. Members only receive matches which our system determines are highly-compatible with them; however, communicating with a match is the only way to really determine if they are "the One."


I wish all of you the best.


-Renee
