If you think about it - all dating sites are annoying in some fashion. But really, isn't face to face dating just as annoying? Guys - how many times have you spent money taking a woman out to dinner only to discover that she is about as deep as a kiddie pool? Or ladies, how many times have you gone to the movies with someone that a friend or family member thought was "perfect for you" but you found them as appealing as fungus? Come on people the process of meeting someone is a trainwreck no matter how you go about it.

Does e-harmony cost a lot? Sure does. Does it send you some really wacky matches? You bet. Can all of those short answer questions give you a headache similar to a junior high algebra quiz? That would be a big fat yes. But as you read all the horrible reviews that are on here keep this story in the back of your mind. This is my experience with e-harmony....

I joined e-harmony as a type of science experiment because my last few relationships had my friends yelling "oh the humanity!" I decided, what the hell, and joined for six months. After several matches and emails that were laughable I decided to respond to this one particular man. Long story short despite living quite a ways away we managed to set up a date after a few weeks of banter. I went to meet him for a late lunch expecting to leave with little more than a full stomach and a great albeit probably embarrassing story for my girlfriends later that evening. Well a "quick meal" turned into a four hour event and the long and the short of it is that thanks to e-harmony I have met the man that I will be spending the rest of my life with. We're talking, he moved to my state, yes those are wedding bells you hear kinda chemistry here. So though for some I am sure it was a total waste of time, for me it was one of the best choices I ever made.
