And now they want me to pay money to actually open up communications with them.

Kinda disappointing because their profiles sound interesting. Oh well . . .

I never paid them in the first place. I made a profile when they had free profile registrations.

Wow. Just think how many women you could have met in that amount of time in "Real Life" (tm).

None. :p

Women aren't attracted to a computer nerd with thick glasses.

Women aren't attracted to guys who have no confidence. If you really think it's the computer nerd (which it partially is, you need to develop a more interesting lifestyle), but thick glasses you can get contacts for that man.

Astigmatism. I have contacts, but they aren't easy to put in and they aren't very comftorable to wear.

So that's how that place works? My roommate is on match.com, and has had moderate success, but there's a lot of flaking that goes on there.

Oh, to be back in college again, where hot girls were EVERYWHERE, and would generally all talk to you. *SIGH*

you're non-christian minority?

eHarmony told me the same thing when I first created my profile.

eHarmony > Bateluer

Bateluer has many good things. Fast primary desktop, fast notebook, nice small workhorse machines crunching data, extensive DVD collection, nice collection of fantasy books, and most importantly right now, Bateluer has half a bottle of scotch in his fridge. :D

Saw one of their commericals and I signed up, with in a day I had 3 'contacts' I obviously didn't follow through. Nonetheless I'd say hooking up with women in real life is much harder, I can only imagine the difficulty for people who got no compatibles at all on that site.

I met my current g/f on Yahoo personals. Back when it was free. We're very much in love. 7 years together this month.

Although 5.5 years of that was equivalent to about 200 days together because of our schedules (3.5 years) and her away at school (2 years). We've actually only spent the last 15 months together full time. :p

I'm getting married to the lady I found through internet dating.

Its a great contact medium to get to know other people where you can take your time to ask & answer questions.
