If you’re like me and like to be proactive you may not like eHarmony. I went thru eHarmony’s questionnaire and then waited. And waited.
eHarmony finds you a match based on your answers – it is not like most other online dating sites where you get to browse and select who you will contact. Sometimes you go days or weeks without an introduction. I did get a few matches and, looking over their profiles, some of them did seem interesting. But, I never did have a physical attraction and I do need to have a physical attraction. Of course, this is mutual – I had a lot fewer women contacting me via eHarmony.
Considering the number of introductions I received and the fact that I was not introduced to anyone that I had a physical attraction to, the price was very steep. It was suggested that I should remain with eHarmony for at least six months for to give the system a chance to find me the right match and I did that. Soon after that, I canceled my membership and moved on.
The Dating Experience is a blog on my experiences in the dating scene that I recently launched. But, I don’t want this to be just about me. I want to hear your stories and I am interested in getting your comments.
I know it can be hard to get some of you to write so here is what I am going to do: For the next month or so, anyone that shares their story (or stories) or enters a comment will be entered in a drawing for $100.
Don’t have a story to share? Hmm … how did you end up with such a perfect match? If your significant other has a single sister, have her contact me! In the meantime, if you still want a chance to win, write in your blog about thedatingexperience.com and I will enter you in the drawing. Just make sure you let me know … I want you to be sure to get your entry.
Rules:
- Each story you submit equals one more chance to win.
- These have to be your personal stories – no stories about your buddy, your girlfriend or anyone else.
- Want to comment instead? That’s worth an entry, too. But, be sure it is a comment with substance, no spam and be nice with each other!
- I reserve the right to publish your story. (Don’t worry, you may use an alias if you prefer - I wouldn’t want your ex coming after you!)
- Since I know we have readers from all over the world, I am going to have to make payment via PayPal.
- Send your story or stories to james@thedatingexerpience.com or comment on any story.
- The contest ends on May 15th. The winner will be notified by email and also announced on thedatingexperience.com.
