Anywho, let's talk about the big dog. I know we all have been bombarded by the constant commercials for Eharmony with all the mediocre looking people talking about how they are married and it was love a first click.. blah, blah, blah. Just in case you've been hiding under a rock or you were too broke to pay your cable bill... Take a look below.
Now, I KNOW, some of you have been wondering if you should spend your hard earned money on this site, because I wondered as well. They make it seem so deep and well thought out. I decided, as pessimistic and cynical as I am, that I was gonna bite the bullet and take one for the team. I won't pay them two red cents, but I will peruse every aspect of the free portions of the site, as few and far between as they might be. Note the pricing plan below:
3 months for CAD$119.85 (amounting to CAD$39.95 a month).
6 months for CAD$179.70 (amounting to CAD$29.95 a month).
12 months for CAD$239.40 (amounting to CAD$19.95 a month).
12 months for 3 payments of CAD$79.80 (amounting to CAD$19.95 a month).
For this much money you would think they would go on the dates for you and only bring you the winners. Sorry, but no. If you don't pay, you don't see pictures. You are supposed to fall in love off of personality and all of their "29 Dimensions of Compatibility". Bulls**t.

ReplyDeleteAs a well adjusted single man in his early forties, I not a fan of online dating, they are more interested in you going out on dates than actually meeting the right person for you.
