Review: eHarmony is not worth the bandwidth
I signed up and I was matched with women I would never consider if I met them in person first. You can't set your search- the 6 "Phd's" do that for you. I never post reviews but I made an exception for eharmony. They should be embarrassed to charge more than 5 dollars/ month for what they offer. Try a site that suits your lifestyle that is the most promising. Never join eharmony.

Review: OK for long distance relationships
I took the time to complete the questions, upload the pics and plunk down more money than the rest of the sites in hopes that this would be the place. NOT! I don't want a long distance relationship and every one of my matches wasn't even in my area code. One was over 300 miles away. No, I don't live in Alaska, but in NJ. The matches were further away in the beginning, then got closer as time went on. Why didn't I get the closer ones first? Then they send you 6 hits a day, so many that you can't possibly keep up. But when you look closely, most don't meet what you were looking for. Although most seemed like decent ladies of course there were the pompous ones with glamour shots who thought Mr. GQ was gonna be there. No different than any of the other sites I guess. I'm done with the online dating. I get more dates in the grocery store than I do on the computer. I really can't see how this site says it's so sucessful, cause I know others who were disappointed with it too. Match.com is better. At least there you can make the choices about who to contact.

Review: Better for men than women
I'll admit that my profile was very accurate as to who I am. But I quickly found out that women my age hardly get any matches at all. The guys, OTOH, told me they were so swamped with matches that they couldn't possibly respond to many. A frustrating feature is that most likely most of your matches have probably never actually paid to join the site and thus can't even respond to you. When you don't get any "real" matches, you're stuck as there's nothing you can do to change the criteria. IF, after reading all these reviews you still want to give it a try, then first take the profile and wait. They will send you a deal of joining 3 months for the price of one. I'm glad that's all the time and money I wasted.

Review: Stay away from eHarmony
What a total waste of time and money! I was on eHarmony for 6 months. Although I got matched up with over 400 men, I didn't get to go on a single date. Most of them don't respond or are so far away from where you live. The guys I did talk to were extremely passive and almost couldn't be bothered. It was depressing. I've been successful with other sites but the eHarmony commercials are so convincing I thought I'd give it a try. I wish I had done more research on them first.

Review: Lots of Cold Fish
Lots of women but very few responses. I would guess that most aren't subscribers. Sure, you can review you matches, but don't count on them being interested or ABLE to respond. Look elsewhere!

Review: Neil Clark should be eShamed
Worthless, don't even bother, matches you get will be miles and miles away (hey, it's not ePen-Pals.com) people who signed up to take the questionaire but had no interest in joining, people who don't complete their questionaires. I may have talked to about 3 normal men out of 250. so don't think the quality is any better than other sites just b/c the ads on TV say they are so much better than online "meat markets" Constantly put on hold or closed out for retard reasons that don't make sense (like that one about the chemistry, and you only see a pic, come on)Money wasted, no dates, I'm not a total loser. Just go out and do the normal stuff in life, it's more enjoyable and a lot cheaper. Good luck everyone.

Review: It's a Sick, Sick World
Geeeez, The opener pics are sometimes encouraging but after contact the info comes that the teaser pic is 3 years old. Then the follow-up pics are older. eHarmony is is a place where people can be who they wanna be. None will meet and I have 4 months left and I'm history. I've met some really super bipolars just by reading theri mail. They'll burn that eMail up but forget about answering basic questions. It's really looking for gold in a junkyard. This guy who gets girls all the time said he goes to the mall and says "hello" to every female that passes. EVERY female. He says that about 1 in 50 will stop and talk and the outcome is a date or a shot at one. I'm going that route ASAP.

Review: EHarmony is Not for People of Color-Any Color
Joined twice.... No real matches even though profile was pretty accurate. Ignore the great commercials and the happy couples(I fell for it the 2nd time)... I think EHarmony is an expensive and misleading set-up. Someone in their ads department probably got a big fat raise for tricking the hearts of the all the lonely people out here.

Review: Don't Waste Your Money
This site is insanely expensive even though my "psych profile" was a perfect match to who I am. For that alone, it is worth filling out the questions JUST so you can print out your own personality profile. Don't bother with the site. Few matches will respond [already "involved" and the site keeps their profiles], and there will be only few in your area and again..it is WAY too expensive. Do your profile for free and then keep your money in your wallet. Internet dating, IMO, is for the birds. You can never judge someone by a photo anyhow!

Review: chealse4u
About Me: I'm a sweet and loving girl. I'm Active and I enjoy trying to get the most out of life. I enjoy very many things, including: nights on the town, quiet movies, the outdoors, sports, hanging out with my friends, and most of all, being with my boyfriend. That's where my problem is, I just can't find a good man that I want to be

Review: Waste time AND money!
After plunking down a large wad of money and spending an insane amount of time answering questions you will be given roughly one match a month who is completely inappropriate for you! Avoid at all costs, because the cost is high.

Review: Don't even bother
This is by far the worst dating site I have ever tried. The matches were completely inappropriate. The men I was matched with were more interested in my sexual preferences than my dating preferences. I found out later that this is supposed to be a Christian site! I guess that's what they mean by
