I joined in April and haven't met anyone. I've heard of more "success stories" from match.com. I'm thinking of trying that one.

My subscription ends July 18, been on and offfor a year and three months. Great experience and sure glad this was my first dating site.


Plan to take a long break if nothing happensby then. There are things you have in common with matches, butdoes that make you compatible?

Wow, I just joined this month. Guess I was lookin for a miracle..........lol, Heck I just found all these forums tonite. I only knew about the matching system. I glad to see there's more to E-Harmony then just the matching. Annie, you have been on here a long time, I hope that you end up finding your love before your time ends.

I've been on & off for about 2 1/2 years...Usually with a month month special...I've met quite a few but only actually dated the 1st one I met. (Oct. 2006) We never really clicked but are still good friends and get together once in awhile... This will be my last time... Funny how when my subscription is almost up I get no new matches until the last day.. Then I'll get 10-15... I will not fall for that "Trick" again.....

I've been on and off since early 2003. I turned off matching 2 1/2 years ago and switched it on briefly last month during free communication. Haven't had as many matches as some of you; made it to OC with perhaps eight and have met exactly one match. We got along fine and she said she felt comfortable with me, but there was no real chemistry. We're still friends and stay in touch, but have not seen each other in three years. I suspect most of my matches were non-paying as many never responded to my initial communication.


My conclusion? It ain't all it's cracked up to be.

I have been on about 9 weeks. No success so far, the one person that I felt was a good match poofed...after brief OC; I was in OC w 2 but they petered out. So, right now, I am not really communicating w anyone. I am trying to remember that when the one person who I am supposed to meet comes along, God will put us together. I have to have faith that something good will come of this or I will get depressed.I just closed someone because they could not spell..I guess this bothers me as if they would not take the time to check!

1st date from EH- She told me she couldn't stand a guy who 'poofs' on her (meaning avoiding her and stop calling with no explanation) ....telling me that she's a big girl and she can handle it. What do you know....that was one and ONLY date I had with her. She left the date...told me to call her during the week..I called, went straight to voice mail...and she closed me 'taking a break from dating'....FAST forward many years later and here we are on ehA.


Negative effect is reading the women's profiles and almost none of them reflect what I can offer as a person....and reading stuff on this message boards only adds garbage on top of the trash.


I pray to God I don't turn into a woman hater anytime soon, cause I'm coming pretty damn close after being here for a little over few months.


Bring it on haters.


I am not feeling good today.

Beeh here for 5 months and not successfuleither. Meet a lot of scammers though [img]library/editor/plugins/emotions/img/smiley-smile.gif[/img]. I am just waiting for my subscription to run out this August but I don't answer anymore communication requests.
I don't think that is a really long time. Why don't you set an intention that goes something like this: "I am asking to see physical material evidence of communication with like-minded people," then let the universe take care of it? Make this something you say daily.Besides, if you don't answer any communication requests, how can you expect anything to happen? If I felt I was attracting the wrong crowd, I would change my profile immediately to reflectmy best attributes.

Don't worry. The equivalent I've experienced to what you mention is anyone who says he wants a woman who is "emotionally stable" (ha!) and self-confident. Thismeans doesn't want to do any of the work.Starry-eyed profiles probably won't be successful (who is responding to those?) I'd just try to go with the most substantive people (sounds like you're going to have to "grade on the curve.")
