I recently had a conversation with a reader where he reveals frustration with getting new eHarmony matches. He said that he had been receiving a dozen matches a day for over a month and then suddenly he didn’t get a match for 5 days. Understandably, he wanted to know where all his matches went!
How the eHarmony Matching Process Appears to Work
A lot about eHarmony is “hidden” from people like you and me but I have been either using their service [...]

At times online dating can be difficult or at the very least frustrating. Many of us come to a point where we feel like we’re just not getting enough opportunity with the dating service we are using and begin to wonder about trying multiple dating services at once. Is this a good idea?

I wanted to wish all of my readers a happy holidays. If you’re a frequent reader and are still single, I know that being alone during the holidays can be difficult but, having been there myself, I believe it can get better if you stay persistent. With 2011 heading towards us, now is the perfect time to think about the commitment you can make to find a great relationship. I offer my opinion on the best way to do this [...]

If you are reading this I would guess that you’ve tried (and possibly given up) online dating. If you are experiencing feelings that online dating just isn’t worth the effort, I know exactly how you feel. However, I couldn’t disagree more!
I dated online and while I had these same feelings in the beginning, the more I learned and dated, the more success I had. Once I understood the best approaches for dating online, I found [...]

Why has my hosting become so slow? That is the question I found myself asking about my GoDaddy account after a few months of having this website. In this “off topic” article I wanted to discuss my problems for this site when using GoDaddy and why I chose HostGator as my new hosting company. I’ll also discuss how well things have gone since switching.
My Problems with GoDaddy
I can break my issues using GoDaddy into a few different categories but it [...]

In my last article I discussed many on-going dating service promotions. Advertised promotions are a great way to save some money signing up for a dating site but it is not the only way. Here is another method to save some money:

This is the second part of my discussion regarding online dating advice. You can find more of my thoughts behind this in the first post, on why some dating advice can be more harmful than helpful.
1. Easy Answers
In many cases there is no easy answer. The people who are selling easy answers often believe the answers are easy…even though they’re not. Their personal experience of having an easy time with a problem gives them a very wrong impression of how [...]

There is a lot of dating advice out there and much of it tries to make your dating problems sound as if they are the easiest thing to solve in the world. Recently I was shown a video of a very handsome man giving dating advice on how everyone should just “get over” rejection. By looking at him it became clear that he had done most of the rejecting in his dating life (he made comments that further strengthened this [...]

With the release of the iPad today, I thought I would write about how much I love the Kindle 2. Everywhere I go online today I see the majority of people blogging or twittering about how the Kindle has all but been replaced. Really, any time Apple releases a new product the hype can get pretty crazy (and with a track-record like theirs it’s no surprise).
Now that I’ve seen the iPad, I suspect that Amazon’s first thought on seeing [...]

A reader recently wrote in with this frustration: on dates he is able to get conversations going easily but finds most of the women he meets, while willing to answer his questions, ask no questions of their own. They often appear very interested in the conversation but are willing to allow it remain about them. He questioned whether these women, who often seem swept off their feet, are actually interested at all. His dates would also say things like “Gee, [...]

Many people I speak with about dating have what I consider to be the standard outlook in regards to online dating: that it is a necessary evil. This approach is one that says online dating is something that must be done. A means to an end and nothing more. I started dating with this mentality and I think this approach is what adds so much frustration to the process.
This approach says that every date is either a failure or success. [...]

What is the best dating service on the internet? This is a popular question and that makes sense since none of us want to waste our time or money with a bad dating service. The answer to this question, though, isn’t a simple one.
It’s All About Your Situation
My thought on this is that there is no universally “best” dating service. Each individual’s situation will determine what is best for them. For example, when I started dating online, the “best” dating [...]
