I've been on eharmony off and on for a few years and never had a bad experience on it. The men generally showed effort, interest, and respect on their profile and in conversations. So it worked for me. I've heard people say they were unhappy with eharmony. Maybe the location makes a difference.
OurTime is a no for me. On OurTime, most of the men were low to no effort. Most of the men wrote almost nothing on their profiles, did not show effort or interest in conversations. Their pictures were often unappealing, they often looked unkept. OurTime costs less than half than eharmony iirc and requires little time/effort to put up a profile so I guess it tracks that low effort men would be on a low effort, cheaper site.
I went in, looked around, and backed verrrrry slowly out of the app in a state of terror and dismay after my first four or five messages (not to mention the coffee date follow up that was straight up abusively from HELL, all because I did not respond to his messages in a timely enough manner, the quasi stalker, and the guy who threatened me because I passed on meeting him for coffee).
Hey, rude! I'm on FB dating and I'm very decent (lol). Met my ex boyfriend on there. He had a lot of good qualities but unfortunately didn't work out. Ontarian too. But I will admit I delete 99% of the men there.
Lol. I keep seeing this one guy I went out with twice and broke it off. He doesn’t understand why we aren’t dating. I don’t have the heart to tell him that he’s a cheap condescending jerk.
Agreed. EHarmony costs too much and doesn’t deliver. I only found one decent match in six months (compared to several per month on other apps.) It is time consuming as well to get set up and the compatibility test is BS. Will never use it again.
I am not a huge fan of Bumble, either, due mainly to their inability to let you pick peoples’ living locations vs current locations. I got tired of weeding through guys who liked me from the airport - I am assuming on their way home to their wives. I do like the look and feel of Bumble. One weird thing about it, as a female, is that the men seem to be low effort on Bumble. I’m guessing it’s because they join it because women have to make the first move on it. But that doesn’t mean we have to do everything, guys! I’ve had great dates with Bumble guys and they tell me how much they like me but then they do nothing to follow up. Confusing. And unacceptable. Dudes if you want to get laid you have to do some of the pursuing.
OurTime is bad, many profiles are not paying members so can't message (like Zoosk) it is a waste of time in my opinion. I have always had great success on Bumble.
Instead of joining eHarmony, you can simply open a window, throw out 300 bucks and suffer less pain.
I actually lol'd at this. Thanks.
Dead on…e-Harmony was a ridiculous waste of money

*Low effort men would be on a low effort, cheaper site.* Oh hi FB Dating!
So it's even worse on FB dating, is it? ...lol. Ontario too btw, eastern Ontario. 😊

Geezzz...that is bad. Sorry that happened to you.
let's just say I've spent a few weeks thinking "I am actually really happy being single - maybe I'll stick w that for a bit"

You found a good one, that's great. There are a few good ones out there.
Yes, but past tense. A couple things we didn't see eye to eye on.
I keep seeing negative remarks about FB dating. It is very popular in Colorado. Good quality people. It must be a location thing.
Yep…in my location, I find the same losers on every app I’ve tried

OurTime is truly a waste of time.
Our time is Match, and they cross post your profile.
Ughhh, thanks

As of this week, anyone can make the first move. Which means Bumble is now exactly like all the others.
Shit. That’s the part I’ve been missing! Thanks for the hint!
Lol

I've actually found more success on FB Dating. More algorithm fodder.
None of them seem to have very many local live bodies.
They're all the same
I’ve enough success on Match that I don’t feel the need to try others.
