I have used other online matchig sites (Yahoo, Match, etc.) & although each had its ups and downs, I can say with complete confidence that Eharmony is by a wide margin the worst online matching service I have ever tried. I feel that I have been defrauded & I foolishly took out a 1-year contract at the beginning. VERY few matches except those they spaced out for the first couple of weeks to lure you in as a customer. Their matching criteria is a complete joke---I've been "matched" with high school dropouts, much older wome, teenagers, women of other races, women outside my geographical area & others that in absolutely no way meet any of my criteria. PLEASE SAVE YOUR MONEY AD TIME. DO NOT JOIN EHARMONY.
