I have been on this site for only 3days and I don't know. I sent questions to guys and I am still waiting for a reply. How long should I wait before calling it quits.

I give them 5 days, in case they are on vacation or traveling because of work, etc., then close the match. If they aren't gonna respond within the 5 days, I figure that is indicitive of how they would be in a relationship, i.e. if something I say isn't interesting to them, then they will blow me off.

Not sure how successful it is, but I don't think most people having success would be posting on these forums.




Bingo.





I hope...

Well l've got matched up with a wonderful man. We're 'going steady' now and going on dates and talking on the phone for hours, so this is the first time since meeting him that l've looked on the forum. The time just isn't there. So l think icedthi and tractable are right.


P.S. l wouldn't have met him if eH hadn't auto-renewed me. l was going to quit it because l was discouraged. Keep the faith

Hi all...


Your friendly eHarmony Advice Moderator here.


This discussion section was started as a repository for the Success Story Moderated threads that we started in January. We're just starting this feature back up next week, and over the coming months more and more of these success couple led discussions will be featured here.


This is NOT a thread that we promote on Singles as a place for successful couples to come and share their stories....though that would probably be a great idea.


As you can imagine, once two people find each other and fall in love, the last thing the usually think about is surfing around an eHarmony site. They are ready to move on with their lives. We do keep an archive with the thousands of couples we have, and we want as many as possible to share their entire eHarmony experience with you.

I, too, have been disappointed in the matches made. I know that some have been scammers and have called their hands on them. Needless to say, they closed me out. But why do they ask a mileage limit when they are making matches that are all over the country. I live in NC. I have had matches from NY to FL to west of the Mississippi! But I am really trying to keep the faith!

my husband and i were matched on 1/23/07 and married on 8/26/07. I obviously haven't been freqenting eharmony and didn't even know there was a discussion board...much less a success story discussion board. I joined in July of 06 and didn't get a lot of matches right away. I quit in August and then renewed in December because I was bored over the holiday. I got a lot more matches the second time. Even though it can be discouraging when you don't meet your soul mate in the first hour of signing up....it is way less discouraging that speed dating or match.com in my personal experience!!!! I am 35 and a doctor. The only men I met before eharmony worked at the hospital and the last thing I wanted was to try to havea relationship at work! It is hard to meet people anywhere else when you work 60-80 hours a week!


Seriously, give it time.
