Oh, I'm so annoyed. I knew that this would happen. I signed up for a "free 7 day" communication trial on eHarmony & knew that I needed to cancel it or I'd have to pay for 3 months worth.. and I didn't cancel it.
And I found out from the trial that the site is horrible and does not seem to be worth the money at all.
It's all a racket!! (as my mom would say) I guess people trust the site & somehow people on it, more than others. And are willing to pay a lot of money to converse online with all the conservative men in Rural USA. Yuck, I didn't want to but I guess I've forced my own hand.
Maybe it was subconscious.
A friend at work said it's to balance out the fact that I'm meeting back up with my ex an considering talking to him again. Yep, that's what I get for doing that I suppose. Maybe it will end up being a better distraction than expected. "YOU NEVER KNOW"
I do like the forced matching.. if the matches were better =) Unlike Match, you cannot go out & search/message anyone. You have to be "matched" with them. Which saves you time sorting through & weeding out the 70 year old men, smokers & 5'5" men.
Anyway, I had to vent! Maybe I'll get more active now & try to "get my money's worth".. ugh. Hopefully at least some good stories will come out of it! If you didn't know, it's almost $70/month if you just do one month. And I think I'm paying 30something for 3 months. If there were more people actually in my city on it who would buy me dinner, I could more easily pay it off with dates. hah.
Totally my fault. I knew the risks. Curse eHarmony.
UPDATE: eHarmony gets worse. Someone just contacted me whom I've already met. I've been to house. I've blogged about him, I think (one of the worst first dates I've ever been on.. at the dive bar). He asked me if I had wanted to chat. I responded and said, I believe that we have already met and that have been out before..and that I think I have been to his house before. And I'm not interested in communicating again but thanks =) Ayayayay. It's crazier out there every day.
Amid several longer relationships, I've been dating (after college) for 6 years now. It's totally as exhausting, exhilarating & baffling as it was when I was 22. My friends enjoy the stories & we've talked about my starting a blog multiple times, so I finally got around to it. Maybe someone else will get some tips, laughs or at least feel better about where they are at in their lives or can relate through reading this..
