    I read about all the rejections and I am wondering how to get these people to leave me alone! I have done the stop emails and still get them. Even from Christian Singles whom I asked, after several attempts to stop their emails, if cheating on my hubby was acceptable behavior? Been married 24 years! It did stop them....for a month and thye are back again! OY!

    I filled out my E-Harmony survey and they matched me up with my wife.

    I went home that night and never mentioned that I was looking on E-Harmony and she never brought it up either. I noticed her Profile was deleted a couple weeks later, so I deleted mine. I guess we're stuck with eath other.

    "Do you like pina coladas, and getting caught in the rain..." LOL

    Great now I have that song in my head - but so very right on!

    True story:

    I once sat down and filled out an E-Harmony dating profile thing, with their bajillion question survey. My results came back that I was one of the 10% of the world that is unmatchable with anyone. So, there's that.

    I have never heard that before!!! How did you react to the news??

    That is dayummm funny! That just made my whole day! OMG hilarious!!! I'm helping out on the phones at work today and I cannot even say "hello" bcuz I'm still laughing OUT LOUD.

    I failed to be matched too... Seems do not match gay women. They profusely apologized, which was funny to me.

    i would love to have a dating or singles section here (other than forums). At least i know the guys here don't want to sit around and eat every waking free moment.

    Yes, but half of these guys still want to date skinny 25 yr. olds. I have done eHarmony, Match, OKCupid and I find it so funny how most of the men on these sites have what I call, "Cindy Crawford Syndrome". Let me explain...I am 44, well-educated, well-traveled, very attractive and self-supporting. But, I am in the "few extra pounds" category. Men think hey, why should I settle for someone with all those great qualities who is overweight? Because hell, Cindy Crawford will be calling me any minute!

    I have been out on plenty of dates from these websites and guess what boys, she isn't going to call you! Set realistic expectations, I have. I may want to date Tom Hardy but it isn't going to happen and you are probably pretty great but you won't give me a chance.

    I am sure I just started a fight here...

    I tried a couple of dating sites. The results for my area were really bad. I felt like a piece of meat because within minutes I had tons of messages. Started looking at men and women's profiles from my area and it was like a back woods breeding site.

    I now feel bad about what I am going to say.

    I would NEVER call myself Christian. I definitely stated that religion did not matter at all as well as stating that it was not a priority to me.

    I got a TON of matches and went on a few dates with people.

    However I also got a ton of "slightly compatible" matches... and one of them has been my boyfriend for the past 3 years. I told my friend about it and so she signed up too and she is marrying the guy she met on there next month.

    It's not ALL bad... though I think you also have to be willing to realize that it's like the real world too. Not everyone you meet you want to date, right.

    The worst are the free dating sites... I would say 99% of the people on there are not on it to date, but to "hook up". (Many bad experiences have taught me that!)

    I do wish everyone lucj though!

    the only person e-harmony matched me with a bajillon years ago was my best friend's ex, who was still a friend at the time. we had a good laugh and realized we may just end up together. after the 3rd divorce, that is;)

    I've never done EHarmony but I was on POF for a while. I met someone that I am actually still talking to (nothing serious... we'll probably end up friends or something) but there were a LOT of creepers. I cannot tell you how many of them called me Princess or asked me if I had ever done any modeling. :noway:

    I did POF for about 2 months. When I started dreading the dates, I knew it wasnt for me. Now, I'm good with single.

    How about we just start a thread that everyone puts their info in???? Then everyone can go from there.

    I have yet to actually meet anyone off of there- i'm not sure I will. Most of them seem like dbags.

    i have met a total of four people off of dating websites. one was a complete JERK (and looked nothing like his pics), one is now one of my closest friends, we never really went on a date we just started hanging out after learning we were neighbors. another one i dated for a little over a year (best relationship i've had to date, he was the sweetest guy in the entire world), and then last week someone i met online became my boyfriend.
    and believe me, i'm not shy and I have no problem talking to random people in person, i only went on there out of curiosity and realized it's kind of fun talking to people online haha.

    you just have to be patient and not get discouraged by all of the creeps. and when i start talking to someone, if they wanna start texting or something, i say no, but you can call me :) you can learn their personality and demeanor better that way in my opinion.

    i am PRO dating websites lol!

    I met my boyfriend on match.com and we are like two peas in a pod.
    Seriously, patience is a big part of the whole online dating process.
    I gave up so many times but something was always bringing me back.

    No- though most ppl obviously use it for that; SOME of us are actually seriously trying to find someone :\

    Agreed. I was propositioned to be FWBs with people on there. Most of them were uggles.

    That's so weird. I've been on several dates from dating websites and never had a negative experience. Some have been pretty boring, never actively bad. Obviously I would never have the same problems as you, but I just find it strange that we could have such different experiences.

    Yeah, I've had the most luck with OKC by far.

    But like a wiser man than me said about online dating in general:

    "the odds are good, but the goods are odd. "

    :bigsmile:


    Edit: yeah POF is TERRIBLE. Never had anyone I found remotely attractive there, much less been on an actual date.
