I wasn't rejected. The only thing I lied about was my age.

But it didn't find me any matches.

Internet dating sites have been a failure for me. I got like one message back from someone out of all the people I messaged. I'm not sure if it's because I look ugly or because I sound incredibly boring.

Plus I don't like spending the money on dating sites anyway.

It appears to be geared toward socially conservative, NTs.

I passed, but I tried to answer all the questions honestly.

Many of the folks who I got to talk to did know that I tend to be a sort of loner, and that I don't really like too much social interaction. Also many of the Christians I met on there don't seem to believe in gender roles, (man as the head of the marriage, wife submits) and the oners that did were in the minority.
Also, many of them also learned that I don't like to use the phone either.

I got well over a thousand matches, but I only got one date out of it. I stopped because I disagreed with the idea of them adding a gay dating site, (something I didn't feel morally comfortable indirectly funding with my subscription) and also because it was becoming too expensive to keep paying the monthly fee.

i passed, got two matches in my area, looked at one but it wouldn't let me look at the other. the site seems to be glitching out on me, it will mess up every once in a while and there are a few things that aren't working, strange for a site that seems to be pretty popular.

I took the test the other night (I passed), but I ONLY meant to take the test. I am NOT looking for an eHarmony "match," and I do NOT want to get endless emails forever because I took their initial test!

I have tried everything I know to get them to eliminate me from their email list, but so far it hasn't worked.

Is everyone else who took the test getting overwhelmed with the subsequent eHarmony emails too?

Match ado about nothing topic

After reading about posters' experiences, this is one site I will not visit, even on a lark.

I took that test a couple months ago and passed; it even set me up with some matches! Unfortunately, my mom says I'm not ready for a serious relationship yet, so I don't think I'll be officially signing up anytime soon.

I signed up recently just for the test (I love taking tests for some reason). I guess I didn't study hard enough though because I got the same result as the OP.

I was bombarded with emails also, but I closed my account and I haven't gotten anything since.

according to something I read last year, they've rejected over a million people. It's easy to have their success rate when you cherry-pick your subjects...

true, but at least when they reject someone they aren't taking their money. i have to respect the fact that they turn away people they know their system isn't suited to help.
