Despite me giving preferences a few times to my ideal "match" yet I've had open communication with about three girls so far and I closed every one. Not one I was attracted to in the least bit. Arghh.

eHarmony was the WORST and the most expensive!!! I had the exact same thing happen to me and gave up pretty fast. It doesn't matter how great their personalities are - if they are screaming TOADS it doesn't matter. Good luck!!! :) Kari

there are only two good websites that build communities and allow people to meet people that I've found and both are absolutely free. This one and my space. why would any fool want to pay for something when it's obvious.

I disagree. I'm 60. Had 300 contacts. Dated a dozen. No chemestry, but that's OK. No guarantee on these sites. Met some lovely people. Even reconnected with past high school friends. I believe it is good to move from dating site to dating site so the data base changes. Again, well worth money, had fun...... and I will go back eventually... Good luck to all H

I agree. The prices is outrageous. You can't even do a "search" on people in the area or a certain critera. You have to "wait" till they send you a match personally. And you can't even view the persons pictures to see if you are at least attracted to them before you fork out big bucks to pay for that month, 6 months, or yearly rate. A total and absolute rip off. If you want to be a fool and pay that much money go ahead. If that's the case eharmony.com/ is the place for you!!!!! And it couldn't even match me with someone that was even within 100 miles of me. A Waste of time, A Waste of money. Go to the free ones. Or at least the ones that offer you a free trial. Those are the ones that probably actually work. Apparently they are offering a free trial for a reason!!!!!

No you don't Hobbes348.......it's colder than a 'witch's you-know-what' tonight, and to remain on the cool side for the rest of the week. I tried eHarmony, too. Same results. Lots of in-go and no out-go...or is that go-out. And I'm stumped why this thread would stay on line when I tried to warn others about Together of Houston and the thread was booted off. Oh, well, let others find out on their own. LIB

eHarmony is so weird...I joined during some "free" thing they offered one time. They made 4 matches for me (supposedly matches)...ick. One guy clearly stated that he was gay and looking for a man! Apparently they don't really read the profiles.

lol.... I would NEVER pay for a dating site, or any similar site for that matter... But eharmony may not be all that bad... I know a couple who met on there, moved to Arizona, and now have a 9 month old adorable baby girl whom I'm a nanny to.... So they met their match! I wouldnt pay for a site... but don't rule it out til you've tried it!

Another one that sucks is Singles.net. Out of all the profiles on there, only 2 guys were on there that I would consider to be attractive. Anyone considering that one..don't! You will be very dissapointed. This site is much better and it's free! Imagine that!

Match.com is also a rip off. After my subcription ran out I found I couln't open and read emails. No wonder I only got a couple of replies to my emails. Most of them were likely non paying members who couldn't even open their mail. I'm a few dollars poorer....but smarter!

While I was on Match.com, I only received about 4 emails from guys PERIOD, and that was over a 3-4 month span. Sure seemed suspicious when I started getting "winks" the week before my subscription expired, and then a couple of emails AFTER it expired. Of course, I could only READ the emails if I paid to join again. Yea...right. Eharmony would send me 10 matches when I first joined, then MAYbe 2-3 a month after that. The month that my subscription was due to expire, I started receiving more matches. Duh!! Another scam?? I wish I'd found PoF sooner and avoided paying those jerks for....NOTHING!

There's no doubt they game the system as much as they can. At the end of the day, these dating sites are a business.

Geez. I agree with EHaromony sucking. But this site isn't so great either. Why do people hit up your page and then lose the nerve to really start conversation?

Hey Hobbes, you are younger than the matches they sent me 3 yrs ago - and like the OP those guys were not in my preferences.

Why would anyone pay for a dating site? Espically with so many great free choices.

The pay sites suck donkey balls. POF is the best site, and it's 100% free.

i tried a few paid site and found them a complete waste of time and money,i think the probs start when women are allowed to join for free ans some actually get gift given to them to waste guys credits,and yes they all seem to have the same old format and fake winks but i guess there are one or two real but tis would be allmost impossible to pick out which one is real and what ones not,they didnt want my good money those paid sites so good luck to them lol.
