eHarmony Cynics
Samantha and Chris
“I’d actually only been on eHarmony for a very short time before I met Chris and I was quite sceptical of the whole idea. My mother had actually insisted that I try the online dating thing!"

Nicola and Paul
"I remember sitting at my PC crying with laughter at his sense of humour and feeling moved by his caring and compassionate nature. We had similar views on most things that are important in a successful relationship and decided to exchange emails then after two weeks I contacted Paul by telephone and we spoke for over an hour."

Angela and Anthony
"I’d been on two other dates before I saw Anthony’s profile and I thought he wouldn’t be interested in me at first. I was surprised when I saw that Anthony was a twin like me so I really wanted to talk to him. The next thing I knew, he’d sent me a message."

Luke and Emma
"After a while my friends and family, especially my Mum, kept on telling me I should try eHarmony. I told myself I wouldn’t and didn’t fancy looking online at all, but in the end I decided to have a look at the site although I really didn’t think it would work."

Carol and Rob
“When I joined eHarmony, I wasn’t totally prepared to start a serious relationship with anyone but just kept an open mind. For this reason I asked for matches worldwide not thinking in my wildest dreams that miracles really do happen, but they do! When a profile came up for a guy in New South Wales, Australia whose criteria matched mine, I thought sending an ice breaker wouldn’t be a bad idea as after all it was the other side of the world and what harm could it do?"

Traci and Andrew
"I originally clicked on the eHarmony site with a very cynical attitude. I questioned how you could find the "perfect match" by answering a bunch of questions. I completed your questionnaire and clicked finish thinking it would than ask me for payment in order to proceed. To my surprise it started searching!"

Julia and Andy
"I decided after a turbulent five-year relationship with my ex that I didn't want to meet anyone through work or by going out so after a friend decided that she was going to sign me up for another dating site, I thought I’d beat her to it and had a look at some websites myself. I wanted to find one that was more focused on introducing me to my soul mate rather than just some fun dates. I definitely wanted to find my special someone. I decided to use eHarmony as it seemed to offer just what I was looking for."

Dave and Judi
"Our first date was in August last year. Since then, despite there being a 400 mile round trip between us, we have seen each other at least once a week every week for the last eight months, and had our first family holiday together as a family back in October last year. On Valentine’s Day, I proposed to Judi and was absolutely delighted when she accepted. There was no doubt in my mind from the very first time that we met that it would lead to this, but everything to-date has been perfect."
