I could never use eHarmony as it misses a vital question:

Do you pay retail?

Oh and I'm married ;)

Well I just wasted all that time filling that crap out only to get this...

eHarmony is based upon a complex matching system developed through extensive research with married couples. One of the requirements for successful matching is that participants to fall within certain defined profiles. If we find that we will not be able to match a user using these profiles, we feel it is only fair to inform them early in the process.

We are so convinced of the importance of creating compatible matches to help people establish happy, lasting relationships that we sometimes choose not to provide service rather than risk an uncertain match.

Unfortunately, we are not able to make our profiles work for you. Our matching model could not accurately predict with whom you would be best matched. This occurs for about 20% of potential users, so 1 in 5 people simply will not benefit from our service. We hope that you understand, and we regret our inability to provide service for you at this time.

That is exactly what I got when I filled it out.

What the fvck does that mean? Are we an entirely seperate group of people or something?

Same. I originally thought it was just the area, but then I expanded it to something like 1000 miles in every direction and I had the same result. What a confidence booster!

I couldn't make it through that insane questionaire. Started to fill it out one time and 20 minutes later I gave up.

People actually use that for dating? I thought it was like Friendster where you just add friends and when strangers contact you, it's just weird.

i've laid multiple hotties from myspace. Its redicuslously easy to seduce chicks online.....its almost not fun anymore. real life pickup FTW!

a know a guy who used it...met a girl and they've been seeing each other for a few months

he's a physician, and a nice guy, but just too busy to go out looking for a gal...so i guess it works for some
