All works (I'll even forward you any contact with her through e-mails). My only gripe is with the date. I haven't signed up yet and that time period only gives me 3 weeks. I figure at least a week or two of initial contact to set something up, the need for at least one very "good" date to get a photo or several so taking it with her isn't awkward (even a goofy spur of the moment camera phone pic would be odd), and finally I have my next few weekends booked and will have people out visiting for a week of the next 3 weeks so the timing is too short. Would you be okay with 7/18/07?

She's putting them on a site where the whole purpose is to meet people. Why would she put up any pic but her own?

Oh yea, I remember that oneClassy in Tallahasseeone chick sent me a pic that obviously wasn't her and then admitted (on the first date no less) that she slept with over 36 dudes (she was 22 years old) AND was
All excellent advice, and things I learned from experience as well. I'm currently living w/ someone I met on match. Also to add, I can't emphasize enough putting the work in on your profile to make yourself stand out from the other wankers. Oddly enough, the best dates I had and women that I met (including my GF) were actually "lurkers" who contacted me first-- very attractive, intelligent women with a lot of potential who didn't want to be bombarded with mail after posting their pic, so they hid their profiles, and then selectively contacted the guys they were interested in based on what they wrote about themselves. This is for you from the get-go if someone interesting makes the first move and writes to you, because you know they are already intrigued.
sparks fly. Worth the investment, for sure--

I'll add in some of my experiences.1) Zero success beyond one date with anyone that I've contacted first, referring to match. yahoo was better, at a couple of years ago. I'm sure this will vary by market. Most of these chicks that are attractive are getting close to a hundred e-mails a day, many of those are psychos. Be prepared to cast early and often for a hook up.
As others have said, be prepared for anything, because you will see the whole spectrum from genuinely terrific to certifiable whackjob. I've hooked up casually, and I've also met women who made the

Pixie2010 is about the only one I'd really be interested in but AMBO and pilatequeen could be wortwhile... so ten bucks a piece to send them an e-mail?Where are you? Minnesota? I can see that. It might vary wildly from market to market. Denver was stock full of choices (along with a lot of awful ones).You also need to narrow the search by body type.Gotta been 6 months at 17 a pop then if nothing happens they give you six more. Not too enticing. Just checking out the profiles on this site is almost embarassing.Don't they have a 60 day guarantee or something now?Well I got the account set up, but 35 bucks a month seems a bit steep (I'm pretty poor).
This is an interesting angle I hadn't considered. So if I just set up a halfway decent profile and come off as a pretty decent catch, chicks will come to me???

God mf bless the interweb. Seriously.
I heard that the ratio at eharmony is 70% women/30% men, and I would not be surprised if that were true, given the sheer number of matches I was given when I was there. (You can't surf the entire pool of women at eharmony like you can at match and most other sites; they send you matches based on a questionnaire you fill out at the beginning. I was getting 12-20 matches a week, which is far more than my female friends who have been on it ever got.) This makes sense because eharmony targets people who are looking for marriage (or at the very least a long-term relationship), not hooking up or casual dating. Their whole concept is much more appealing to women. The pro is that you have lots of options. The con is that you'll rarely find women who will sleep with you before the third date, if that's what you're after.
Does anyone ever give you #### about having basically only one serious relationship in your life?
Bingo...I'm getting precisely 7 matches a day that "meet 29 key matching criteria". It's been that way for about three weeks. They roll in at about 8am as sure as the sun comes up each day. If I use their search for matches feature at 7am, they will tell me that there are currently no people that meet the 29 criteria components. In other words they're blowing a bunch of smoke up people's asses.
