This was a total waste of time and money. The only reason I give eHarmony even 1 star is that I collected enough horror stories to write a book!

Unless you're hooked up to a lie detector, the lengthy questionnaire means nothing. Going through the entire "getting to know you" process gives one a false sense of security. By the time you're able to talk on the phone you're ready to hop on a plane to Vegas.

My 203 matches lived as far away as Guam, although I specified that I wanted to meet someone within a couple of hundred miles from my home. A little distance can be exciting, but Guam??

The ones I did meet were either: shorter than advertised, alcoholics, had posted very old photos, were actually attracted to younger women and just trying me out, or were on various heart and blood pressure medications.

With eHarmony it's all about the marketing. Even a mediocre product will do well with good marketing. However, I think any free dating service can yield the same results.
