Hi. My name is Josie and I am an eHarmony reject.
I think I do need a 12-step program after this fabulous ridiculousness.
I spent, at least, 45 minutes filling out the eHarmony.com’s FREE Compatible Match Pre-Screen in 29 Dimensions “Questionniare” answering pyschological question after pyschological question about myself, my relationship with my parents, and my views of life from, yes, 29 dimensions.
I rated myself in party-going, man qualities, money spending, and what constitutes a “deal breaker”.
And then, I clicked the “See your matches now” button – and got rejected.
Yes, it’s true.
I printed out the screen in case of anybody’s utter disbelief.
Apparently, I fell into the 20 percent of applicants eHarmony did not think their dating shananigans would benefit.
eHarmony.com states,
”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.”
I was the center of entertainment with the girlfriends and family for the weeks following.
I myself found my rejection quite entertaining. I always knew I was an unclaimed treasure, but now, this confirmed it.
eHarmony.com, bite me.
Here’s some consumer reports from around the web:
Happy user: "I found this babe on eHarmony, we've been talking on the phone for months and I think we're going to get married."
Sad user: "F#!k eHarmony. I spent two hours creating my profile and it didn't match me up with anyone. It's a f#!king religiously intolerant right wing piece of shit."
**
“Ok lets be honest here. They mine as well call it whatsleft.com. Eharmony is for guys that dont have the balls to be rejected in person so now there gonna go pretend that they r a player on the web …
Child: Daddy, how did you meet Mommy?
Father: Well it was a Friday night. And i was sitting in my underwear in front of the computer and i clicked her picture on eharmony. the rest was history.

Rumor has it, you are MUCH less likely to be matched up with someone if you pick something other than 'Christian' as your religion.

Hi Alexus,
First, and foremost, thank you for visiting my blog, welcome.
Second, How are you?
Well...with your dilemma...let's see...
To start, don't feel like you are the only one that has ever been in
this pickle - many of my best girlfiends - including myself - have been in this quandary -
Hell, they write movies about this stuff! Life is messy!
Since you said *Bob's* girlfriend is a good friend of yours,
you must decide if testing the waters is worth risking your friendship with her.
If Bob is a best friend, are you comfortable enough with him to ask him point blank about his feelings
or ask some investigating questions in a round about way?
I would see what happens. This sounds cliche, but follow your heart
and if it is meant to be, the law of attraction will bring you both together.
I hope this helps. Keep me posted!!
Be well,

Hi-great blog! So sorry you were rejected by eharmony, that's crap! Did you try Match? I've had great luck. Then again I never thought I would. It just seemed to work out...and I don't think they reject. It's just like that funny commercial. I say send them a picture of your middle finger.

You're the best!
I have tried Match, but alas, that did not pan out either - check back for a post on that one.
I am glad to hear you have had good luck with their endeavors.
And, I too, feel as if I am in a constant funny commercial!
I am off to fax my middle finger to Match...
Stop back soon!
