okay let me debunk E-harmoney (and no I typed it that way cause they want your money)
29 DIFFERENT DIMENSIONS---ya right......I talked to several women who got matched up with guys they would never ever date. A few dimensions E-farmery DOES NOT take into consideration...ummm distance, they hook you up with people that reside like 100 or more miles away.
ALMOST 500 TIMED PRE-QUALIFYING QUESTIONS-yep you heard me...they screen you BEFORE YOU GIVE THEM YOUR HARD EARNED CASH....AND 1 OUT OF 5 DON'T MAKE IT....THATS 20%. SO FAR 1.3 MILLION REJECTEES. Obviously they do this to get better stats (marriages). You dont get to pick and choose from a large rectangle box of Picture matches....THEY SEND YOU SO CALLED MATCHES...often with no picture.
REJECTIONS-if your a fortunate enough to pass the 500 questions, you can also be rejected for the following reasons:
1) gay/lesbian or bi-curious---sorry about your gender preference but the E dont want to have nothing to do with ya
2) PEOPLE 21 OR UNDER---yep age discrimination too.
3) PEOPLE WHO ARE MARRIED
4) MARRIED MORE THAN 3 TIMES-not even E wants you, better give up
5) OPEN SEXUALTY-its great your are open about sex but not on E
6) ANY SIGNS OF DEPRESSION-show any indications of depression and you get the boot.
7) lie or exagerate on the test-you get kicked off
8) THE OBVISOUS: nudity, profanity, solicitations, advertising
THEY NEVER GIVE YOU THE REAL REASON EITHER--they say something like "LESS THAN 3% OF THE E COMMUNITY WOULD BE A MATCH...SORRY"
NEXT UP ON THE SERVING PLATTER IS MATCH.COM
IT'S OKAY TO LOOK-----well the idea here is for you to upload a photo, then a profile to be added to their vast plethora of available members....cept a lot of them are NOT MEMBERS......so it's mis-leading. They hired these actors (google match uncut) to do a series of black and white commericials in hopes to lure you in.
Match also offers the 29 dimension levels on another site which they own called Chemistry.com to compete with E on another level. Anyways they offer this feature for 5 additional bucks per month that allows you to see who has read your email. If U send an email to a chic who is not a member but uploaded a pic and profile SHE CANNOT READ IT......unless she signs up. You dont need the SEE WHO READ YOUR EMAIL feature....just click on their profile and view when was the last time they were online....if it's 3 weeks or more ODDS ARE THEY ARE NOT A CURRENT MEMEBER. WHO CARES IF SHE READS YOUR EMAIL OR NOT.....if she read it and responded YOU WOULD KNOW, if she read it and did not respond......she aint interested.
Then theres the generic advice from DR. Phil video blogs for an additional `10 bucks a month........ya like when was the last time old blady was on a date, let alone the internet.
Match also has the save money by signing up for longer memberships--IF YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING.....you will have enough dates to last months and months in just 2-3 weeks. So never sign up for more than a month. Women get soooo much email in the first week its so ridiculously overwhelming that many cancel after 2-3 weeks.
Match has an auto-renew feature: the sole purpose of this is to keep charging you without you ever noticing. LOOK for the SITE MAP AND scroll down to the AUTO RENEW FEATURE OFF BUTTON, OTHERWISE you get charged for another 6 months.
THEN theres Date bait, annoying email enticements, pop up ads, all designed to get more money from you.
Theres "PLENTY OF FISH" out there that offer free net dating, but the quality & quantity is slightly lower.
So if you are thinking about net dating the best advice I can give ya is better know how to write enticing, cute, emails. SO where can I find how to do that........good question. Two sources that have GREAT cut n paste email examples (ones that get phone numbers) the book Davagina code and the program Insiders net dating. I have tried both and they do actually work.
If you are cash strapped I guess you could enlist the "talent" on this message board to help ya. The only downside (and no dis-respect fella's) is you get huge variance in opinions. I am the "just give me stuff that works" without all the psycho babble type of guy.
DO KEEP IN MIND......never ever be solely dependant on NET DATING, use it as a tool but not a replacement for doing cold approaches. Internet is easy and can lead to laziness and addiction.

Do you guys ever get spammed by Beliefnet? I've been getting it for months and one day I read they're affiliated with eHarmony and I've never even visited eHarmony's site.
