In the grand scheme of things it makes no real difference, but this question has been tickling the back of my mind for a while. Over the last 2 months, I've accumulated over 200 closed matches. I've noticed on some you get that little green button and on others there is no button. I've been trying to figure out what the difference is and just now the thought came to me that you may get no button if both of you closed the match for the same reason and get the button if you both stated a different reason for closing the match. Any thoughts on this? Has the mystery already been solved in a past thread?

I am not sure exactly what you are talking about.

If it about the closed matches in your Closed folder:
If you close a match they will be notified that you closed them. If they just close the match without sending a Final Message then the Next Step column will just show Match Closed without a green button.

If you close a match and they send a Final Message then you will have a green button that says Re-Open.

If your match closes you and you send a Final Message then there will be a green button that shows Read Closed Message.

If your match closes you and you just close the match also but don't send a Final Message then you will have two green buttons, one says Read Closed Message and the other says Send Final Message.

If you are talking about some other green button please explain more and I will try to figure it out for you.

Hey there DiamondMask!

The difference between having a green button on your closed matches is this:

If YOU are the one to close out the match you will NOT get a green button for that particular match under the closed matches column. The reason being is that eHarmony likes to leave it to the person being closed out to have a final word if they wish. Once you close them out they have the option of replying back to you.

If the OTHER person is the one to close you out then you WILL get a green button for that particular match under the closed matches column. Again, this is because eHarmony gives the person being closed-out the option to have a final word.

Hope this helps and good luck in your search!

Mhh, that sounds reasonable. I will try to pay closer attention to see if that correlates. Thank you and good luck to you as well.

I think we're talking about the same green button and what you say also makes sense. The two explanations I have gotten so far yield the same effect, but are stated differently. Thanks, I think I understand it now. Have a great weekend and happy trails .
