It’s been approximately one month since I’ve signed up with Eharmony and nothing has come of it. Yeah, a few messages here and there but…NOTHING. I’m even attempting to initiate conversation. That hasn’t been successful either. I’m really trying to stay positive but I’m having more and more difficulty.
There was a millisecond where I got really excited about a guy on OkCupid. Seemed like our conversation was going really well. We event tentatively set a date for next week. THEN….he wanted to exchange instagram accounts. I’ve written a post about social media before. I’m not a fan of sharing these things early on when talking to somebody. My social media pages, especially IG show my personality and what my life is all about. Anyways, what felt like immediately the conversation slowed and I haven’t really heard from him all day. What does that mean? Does that mean he didn’t like what he saw? I’m so tired of all this. Could he eventually message me and say “oh crap. i’ve had such a long day. sorry i didn’t reach out.” yeah. Maybe. but let’s be real…it’s probably not going to happen.

Personally I’ve never seen much use in the paid sites.
I was hoping it was only match that sucked as a paid site lol. Clearly it’s not the only one
Not to mention I feel like I see the same people on each site/app.
I signed up for a free trial on the paid sites. The only difference was that I would have been paying to talk to / be ignored by the exact same people on the free sites.
I’m beginning to see that now
The offer of a profile review on OKCupid still stands. I helped a friend a little while back and she ended up getting more responses. Just pop me an email 🙂
Tell me about it! Online dating was the hardest thing to go through. Some people can be very challenging. Also! Thought I’d mention, when I first started talking to my wife on a dating site and asked for her facebook name, she explained that she wanted to get to know me a bit better before becoming facebook friends. So, I get where you’re coming from.
