Site Overview:

eHarmony was originally launched in 2000 and claims to create partnerships that stand a better chance of success. The site credits most of their success to these patented matching questionnaires. For almost 10 years now, they have created a place for people to meet and find love.  Unlike other dating sites, users cannot just freely browse your profile unless specifically matched to you.  eHarmony offers compatibility without sacrificing your privacy.  All users have to do is register and fill out a detailed questionnaire that consists of about 400 questions. Seniors also receive a personality match analysis worth $40.  eHarmony will then provide members with free matches that guide them through a 4 stage process of getting to know their match before direct contact is enabled.  This function helps to protect member’s personal information until both people feel comfortable. eHarmony is confident you will meet other compatible seniors and enjoy a positive online experience.   Partner sites such as eHarmony labs and eHarmony Advice can also offer a complementary service to members.

It is not possible to browse or search profiles on eHarmony. Once matches have been found, you are guided through the following communication process:

1. Read your match’s ‘About me’ information
2. Send first questions (chosen from a list)
3. Exchange 10 ‘must haves’ and 10 ‘can’t stands’
4. Send second questions (free choice)
5. Open communication

After communication commences, you can decide whether to exchange personal contact details or fast track the process straight to direct open communication.
