  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

I was on it for a bit, but I got so tired of the process so quickly I didn't want to pursue, but just sitting there waiting for a guy to show interest doesn't work at all. ;) And for the money, I wouldn't do it again.

My uncle's ex found her second husband on there though! they're blissfully married. I know Tenorvoice on here met his lady there, and last I heard they're planning on getting married. So there are lots of successes there too. It just doesn't work for everyone. Me included, I suppose.

It felt contrived and I didn't have the chance to ask the questions I wanted to earlier on in the process. I had to wait until the end to ask some questions or follow-ups I found important. Structure can work for you, but also against you.

Anyway, I wasn't ever short of matches, even if some of them were kinda far away. I even dated one of the guys I met through there for a whole month before it went belly-up :D no fault of eHarmony though.

anyway, I say find a way to do a trial run and see if you like it! There are lots of Christians on there, more than any other populated dating site I've ever seen anyway.

This one girl at my church tried it and she met this guy and dated him for a while. She brought him to meet our friends for dinner and he ended up hitting on another one of our friends right there in front of her . Then he called the next day and broke up with her and said he couldn't stop thinking about the friend. That's the only person i know in real life that has used e-harmony.

I've toyed with the idea, b/c i have no possiblities in real life. But , i feel weird about it.

I did a trial a while back, then quit. Then recently I filled out their profile thing again and it said I was unsuitable :p
my good friend met his current girlfriend on match.com...

I know it's not the same, but I'm sure it's similar right?
