Online Dating! paul76: Okay, so I have decided since I am not brave enough (sorry wildcat) to ask a woman out, I would try the online dating thing. I went to eharmony and filled out the questionairre thingy and answered their questions.
Then I get a message that says:
eHarmony is based upon a complex matching system developed through extensive testing of married individuals. One of the requirements for it to work successfully is for participants to fall into our rigorously defined profiles. If we aren't able to match a user well using these profiles, the most considerate approach is to inform them early in the process.
We are so convinced of the importance of creating compatible matches to help people establish and enjoy happy, lasting relationships that we choose not to provide service rather than risk an uncertain match.
Unfortunately, we are not able to make our profiles work for you. Our matching system is not suitable for about 20% of potential users, so 1 in 5 people simply would not benefit from our service. We hope that you understand that we regret our inability to provide service for you at this time.
Ouch! I feel pretty special to have a dating website to tell me that I am not compatable with anyone!
Re:Online Dating! ChristyM: Don't be so hard on yourself Potzy. I think two or three other people just on this site have mentioned they got the same response from E-Harmony.

Re:Online Dating! paul76: No, dont get me wrong...I dont really care about it. I just thought it was hilarious that a website dedicated to relationship matching....said "no thanks".
Re:Online Dating! JimB: That's exactly what I got from them!
I was a teeny bit hurt, at first, then I realized I'm pretty darn happy to be sufficiently mentally twisted to not qualify for something like that. So I ran a marathon instead.
;D
Re:Online Dating! LettinGo: Lmao!
Well, I went through the whole questionnairre and then got a message that since I was only separated and not divorced yet, I could not participate. That is probably a good feature to have though.
Wish I could run a marathon ... lol
