Is this the first time you've used eHarmony?

I've been reading these threads for a few weeks now and it seems that the best approach is to have really wide parameters, then slowly refine them over time.

My distance request/hope/requirement is about a two hour drive because I live in a semi-rural area with two cities within two hours. You might want to reconsider details like that.

All of your setting come into play. I would suggest looking at more than just your distance. And, try clicking on the Find New Matches a couple of times. When you do it immediately after changing settings it doesn't always take hold.

I think my setting may be 60 as well. I have sort of the opposite problem. I get 6-7 new matches every day. I think I have over 200 "new" matches on my system that I have done nothing whicn. Of all of these matches I have received, I have initiated communication with about 50. I have had only 1 match respond and after getting to OC he recently poofed due to the appeared of an old (mythical?) girlfriend. One man initiated communication with me. So having all these matches has left me no better off than you are. One thing to consider may be to ask eH to allow you to ret-take the initial personality questionnaire. For some reason, when I've done that in the past, it has generated more matches.

Good luck.
