eHarmony 1

Eharm-on-me is a scam. If you wish your wallet or your feelings to be harmed online then this is where you go.
- Lots of people get no matches. I did though. Retired aged truck drivers on disability and I am 28 years old!
-Then there is a system where you can say what people want to hear in multiple choice. And I heard from many people that users are terrified to jump straight to the email stage.
-It is crazy expensive.
-They play games instead of letting you stop payment after the trial.
-People sue them constantly.

THE PERSONALITY TEST SAID I WAS GULLIBLE! Then why (oh why) didn't I get a membership to EHarm-on-me?

Update: When you do the test and they say you can't be matched, put yourself in a higher income bracket then suddenly you will be worthy of love. I swear these "29 dimensions of compatibility" are more with the site then with the people ..and in reality, it is only one dimension:

1. If you have enough money to pay them.

lol...Gullible, what are they thinking. (Although I am definitely naive I'd be pissed if a website told me as much).

I have a friend who uses OKCupid. I think that one is free at the very least. He's a boy so I'm sure it's all a little different, but he tells me he has met lots of people through there here in SF, some of whom are now good friends (post-romance).

No more OKcupid for me! I only found one guy that I liked, we talked for a couple weeks, he made a date.. Then I just got an obnoxious email..
How did I manage to get dumped before I even had a date? Why did he talk to me forever? I MADE SURE we seen eye to eye on stuff..

That just doesn't HAPPEN on Plenty of Fish. I told him those "issues" were there from the start and not to try to bullshit me, then I backspaced many terms like "fathead" lol.. I also told him it was DINNER, not a relationship. Instead of lying why couldn't he just ignore me or just leave me alone to begin with? I QUIT OKcupid.

"I've been doing some thinking today and I don't think that this will work out between us. I have had lots of fun getting to know you but I know that you enjoy your smoking, and that is something that I don't think I could get used to, as I don't smoke. I also think that the distance could be an issue.

So, I will have to step back from our plans on Friday for dinner. As I'm uneasy about some aspects of what could be our relationship."

Thanks for the advice! Just finished their online personality thing and was debating, but I hear you. As for that guys email to you......ridiculous!
Sounds like he saved you from a pretty lame dinner though :)

Wow, that's a dick move after wasting your time for a few weeks. :( sorry Erin. I probably would have backspaced "douchebag" :P

Erinlove commented 117 days ago.
My dating blog is full of the word "douche", but for some reason, he was more of a fathead. Mainly because of extra chin..
Thank you guys! And yeah, how uptight would he have been? Guys like that make me nervous so I drop forks and I can't control the volume of my voice lol

If you try these dating sites, believe nothing that you hear. Don't be like me and fall for it repeatedly lol. They usually just disappear though which is much nicer IMO! At least when they disappear you can imagine they got drafted or something lol

oo...dating blog? nice! I had a friend who wanted to do an anonymous write-in morning-after-a-one-night-stand blog (posts by girls only), but she never did.

It's disappointing to hear that people lie so often in that situation. I tend to expect that most folks are generally truthful (especially given the high likelihood of getting found out on first meeting), so I'd likely be easily manipulated :|

Erinlove commented 117 days ago.
Yes hun. You'd quickly become the co-writer of my blog lol
But is it not also true that if your heart is not open and you do not trust or believe..if you do not let yourself be vulnerable.. Then he will just pass you over just as fast?
I don't know what to believe anymore lol
I think I need to start going out to more places than Walmart xD

Lena commented 117 days ago.
Haha, aw.

Yeah, you're right about vulnerability being worth it (so long as the person you're with doesn't take advantage of you for opening up). It took me forever to learn to accept that, and I still struggle with it, sometimes....constantly second-guessing myself when I take a chance.

Second guessing yourself is great protection. You are prepared for any outcome that way... Life sucks too much to walk around not prepared when possible.

I was thinking about that one night stand blog. I think it is an excellent idea. For both "accidental" and preferred encounters.
I think it would have made the hurt women see the bright side and learn that they are allowed to feel pleasure without guilt from the deliberate women. As well as comfort for the ones who feel "tricked" and abandoned. These women could have learned a lot from* each other.
