in 12 months...
912 matches
24 to OC
12 met in person
5 dated after initial meeting
It was draining going through all those matches but a good way to meet people, although the numbers probably depend on your location!

381 closed in 5 months with NO dates. I can hardly wait for the expiration (1 more month). A waste of time and money. But really, VERY very disappointing!! never again!

It was mentioned on one of the threads that there were no statics on Eharmony on the dating statics of people on the site. It would clearly be not exactly scinetific, but could be fun. For my stats class I need to collect a 50 data Module to manipulate in multiple ways. If 50 were interested ane willing to contribute this is what I was thinking.................


I need 50 people to tell how many dates they went on in the last 12 months(?). As many of you are more familar and experienced at Eharmony, I am more then open to opinions of the parameters of the study. If it should be longer or shorter duration. Or in fact if there is some other topic that is more fun to measure. I will have to come up with something in the next 10 days or so if this isn't something anyone wants to do, that's fine too. Just might be interesting. I would post the results as I generate them for all to see.


Anyway, any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks!

I lost count!

2 months into this I have 161 closed, 15 communicating, 0 went to OC and of course 0 dates. Very few (<10%) even responded to initial questions and most of those just hung in limbo afterwards. Match, Yahoo, and even Cupid are looking soo much better and a fraction of the price.

Nope can't be you. Don't even pretend to not know the feeling. It's the lament from all over the site. I think I was happier unhappy being single, then discouraged and single and feeeling horrible about myself. At least you found the advice boards. These people are really neat people. And like the rest of us we hang in there, you only need one. And in no way are you alone in how you feel. Sometimes I think the men are waiting for the 21 year old contortionist who has a twin sister to come along!
LOL ... i just had to say i thought you last comment here was funny and i assure you that this guy is not waiting for that... ...LOL

One remark - eHarmony not for people from others countrys. Most who closed me said - too big distance between us. Funny. In XXI century.

I did some research and found that 86% of most searchers are 47% satisfied with 67% of profiles, especially when the first 92% of questions are at least 55% completed. That compares favorably to over 75% of those polled who reply with over 86% positive repsonse, 46% indifference. The inverse was true for females in the lower median and those whose spouses and children had a median age of 34, plus or minus 24%.

But of course this is just an initial estimate and your results may vary.

Im interested in finding out how many people actually met someone in their state. I heard its a lot of old profiles, leads you to believe more people are on the site.
