I just took the personality profile and belive it or not (since I have a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology and Sociology), I have been told I do not have the qualities the others here are looking for in a woman. They told me to get on this advice tool and see what I can learn. Does anyone have any advice?

What did you do? Answer everything in the middle or the extreem?
Has the knowledge of psychology taken your humanity away or something?

I thought I read that if your responses indicated dishonesty (for instance, your responses to one question doesn't jive with your response to another question), the questionaire would spit you out.

I didn't think it was possible to fail a personality test. Is this supposed to mean you don't have a personality or that you have taken on other's personalities as part of your profession?

They made up the test they should be giving you the needed advice...in my opinion. We didn't ask you the questions nor see how you answered them, so tell them to show you the way to OZ.

It has been a long time since I took the questionnaire. But, I do remember there are three questions at the end that make it or break it (or at least it seems). One being a question about honesty and lying. If you mark that it is OK to lie to someone (white lie etc) you will most likely be kicked.

I'm going to move this to Using eHarmony. Kate and Renee seem to be on those boards quite a bit and will surely see this. (and help guide you a bit better than many of us can)

And, please, feel free to cruise around our friendly little advice community here. I'm sure you will find topics that interest you. Welcome to the boards!

The test has several questions that relate to happiness and emotional health. If you do not choose healthy answers, you won't be accepted by the eHarmony service. Also if you answer that you are married, you won't be accepted, since this is marketed as being for those who seek a long-term relationship. I think there are a couple other dealbreakers mixed into the test as well.

Do an internet search of Eharmony, then click on Wikipedia. Their Eharmony entry has a section on not being accepted. It explains the reasons.

Hope this helps.

Be thankful they rejected you rather than accepting your profile and money and then send you so few matches as to not make it worth your while to be a member.
