Couples' personal stories





Nearly Gave Up



Paul and Kim
"I wasn't too sure that I was ready for another relationship, but I logged onto the site and liked the concept, especially the personality matching and how it seemed different to other dating sites."

  • Married: 17th March 2012



Mark and Fiona
“For over two years I was single, losing all faith in whether I would ever fall in love again. I tried so many different dating sites to no avail. I’d been on eHarmony for a long time and it got to the stage where I was about to give up when I received an icebreaker from Fiona, just before the end of October 2010. She was the first person to contact me on your site and the last. Since then I have never looked back."
  • From: Glenrothes, Fife

  • Engaged: 12th February 2011



Alison and Adam
"Ten years ago I was living in New York and used to see eHarmony adverts on the TV quite often. At the time, I didn't feel that eHarmony was quite the website for me, but encouraged a friend to go on the site and my friend actually found someone. In 2008 I decided to subscribe to eHarmony for the first time. I was on the site for eight months but felt that the matches weren't quite right for me, so I cancelled my subscription."
  • From: London

  • Married: 6th October 2011



John and Karen
"While in Telluride, on a beautiful day with clear blue skies, aspen trees in gorgeous golden colour and snow on the ground suddenly John was down on one knee - first with a jokey huge fake diamond ring and then with the stunning ring he had helped design and had made for me - it was wonderful."

  • Matched: 9th May 2009



Anna and Andrew
"The eHarmony process almost forced me to think through relationships logically and definitely helped to shape me into a better person to date. The process of having to think through the ten must haves and can't stands was also so empowering and Guided Communication gives you the opportunity to be wise about who you speak to."
  • From: Portsmouth, Hampshire

  • Married: 25th October 2009



Faith and Al
"I admit it. I am an online dating veteran. I’ve tried many online dating sites. Before you wonder about my sanity, or my desperation, I didn’t try all of them at the same time. I’ve been single for 15 years."
  • From: England
  • |
  • Married: 1st November 2008



Stefan and Sarah
"About a year ago I first joined eHarmony searching for someone also looking for a relationship that could possibly lead to marriage. After joining in February 2008 I spent the next four months trawling through matches, though I began to get despondent as most of the matches did not stand out to me as being that special person."
  • From: Longfield, Kent

  • Married: 6th June 2009
