You should begin your visit to eHarmony by taking the free personality test. Really, you can't do anything on the website without taking this first. This test is a doozie and gave me flashbacks to highschool when the questions just go on and on and on. eHarmony has tried to set itself apart from the other dating websites by matching people based on this extensive personality assessment instead of looking through hundreds of pictures and trying to make your own decision. Not that you don't get to make your own decision, you do get to pick from several matches they will provide, but like it says on their website while presenting your matches We've eliminated 99.7% of our members to find your perfect match!
If your a guy, you should do well with eHarmony. The women outnumber men 2 to 1. Pretty good odds and women like to idea that theres more to the matching than just hanging out in a virtual meat market!
The extensive profile took about 30 minutes. I kept having to read the positive statements they print on the right side of the screen encouraging me to continue. Once it was completed though, the insight was really interesting to read, both for what it tells you about yourself and what it tells you about your perfect match!
Attention ladies: unless you're a 20-something female hottie, don't bother with eHarmony. As others have mentioned, men vastly outnumber women on the site, and the majority of matches you will get will not even be paying members. Very few will communicate with you.
Most men my age (41) have at least one set of kids already, and you can't screen them out (I don't have or want kids). You can only select matches who don't have kids under 18 "living at home."
eHarmony will also try to match you with men who are dramatically older than you are unless you manually change your settings. (I was getting matched with men in their mid- to late-50s! Geez, I may as well date my dad!)
eHarmony also thinks relationships work better if the man is more educated than the woman, so if you have a Bachelor's degree, you won't be matched with an otherwise perfect guy who only has an Associate's degree. (I think that's ridiculously archaic.)
So...less-educated, young hardbodied hotties, go to it! Pony up the bucks and I'm sure you'll have men all over you. Normal, better-educated women, watch out...you're just cannon fodder on eHarmony. Save your money!
I like the way eHarmony matches people. It is different than all the other matchmaking websites because they give everyone a personality test and then match you based on compatable answers. It really helps eliminate wasting time on people that are just not right for you!
The lengthy test at the beginning that seems to be a compination clinical psychological test and a Myers-Briggs. I joined for awhile, but at first received no matches. I complained and started to receive them. Oh Boy. If these women are waiting for me they will be waiting a long time. All seemed to be elderly and grandmotherly. All also appeared to be Evengelical Christians. There are no pictures. I simply never found anyone that I would bother to write to when a match was presented. Somehow in the testing I must have indicated that I was willing to accept an old woman whose main interest in life is Jesus. While that is fine for her, I never would want to date her or live with her. Sorry eHarmony, your test got me all wrong. I'll give you two hearts because you may be good for someone less interested in looks and sex. Oh, despite pleas to stop sending me matches they kept coming for weeks. For all I know they still are.
