It's too stupid for words, and obviously completely fake.

In my attempt to stop the video, I accidentally "liked" it! Any idea how to unlike something there?!

It's very obviously fake because if you look in the sidebar at youtube you can see another video by her where she is "playing" twins by standing at the edge of a mirror making her reflection look like a twin.

People will do anything for 15 minutes of fame these days.

eHarmony doesn't have such a thing as video bios, and there are no real tears and the guy filming cracks up at the rainbow par, but I thought it was a pretty good performance heh.

I have to say though, I want to roll around all day with a bunch of kittens delivered in baskets too!!!
post #12 of 24
What an actress!!!! I guess a first date with that blubbering chick would be all about hugging all cats and putting them in a basket

Maybe we should hook up.

Once upon a time, I had an eHarmony profile and the majority of my pictures had a cat in them somewhere - on my lap, in my arms, etc.

I used to have one too. It's not cheap to join and I didn't feel that I was getting my money's worth.

In my profile I specifically said that I love The City life. That I had no interest in relocating, especially to a small town or to the country.

Since I'm not interested in relocating and am not into the whole long distance, never see each other relationships, I had a narrow geographic scope. However, I wasn't getting any matches, so I widened the geographic area slightly.

After that I started to get matches. However, most were from North or South Dakota, Nebraska and Minnesota from guys living in remote country areas or on farms. I seriously doubt that a guy who owns a farm is going to want to sell it and move to Canada to live in the heart of a city of almost 800,000 people!!!

Also, I really am not interested in dating an older man. I prefer guys my own age or a year or 2 older, or up to 10 years younger. The way eHarmony works is that they tell you what age you need to be matched with and they were matching me with guys up to 12 or 15 years older than I was.

Hmm, I joined Match.com for fun when it was free for awhile and I was able to select the age range I was interested in (exact opposite of you - my philosophy is, unless he's five or more years older than me, he's too young! lol! my first serious boyfriend was 18 years older than me). I think Match also allows you to choose if you are looking for a man or woman no matter which gender you are, which eHarmony does NOT do, so maybe the traditional age assumption/restriction is part of that mindset as well.

Just watched the Single White Feline - L.O.L.!!!!!!!

For the original video, I agree the girl's voice is annoying, and her acting's not so great, either - it's obvious from a few seconds in that the video is fake. I think most people like it for the baskets/rainbow/bowties comment I posted above, which she says near the end of the video - or that's how it would seem according to my facebook feed. Still, I liked it. It was funny!

I seem to remember being able to set the ages exactly. I think it did initially set it to a certain range, but I was able to change it. I had the same problem with the geographical settings. I set mine to 30 miles, and the profile settings were always bugging me and telling me I should set it to at least 180 miles. My thought was that I live in a metro area with ~ 400,000 people and if I couldn't find a match in that area, the service was a waste of time.

I think I got matched with about 30 women initially. Of those, I found maybe 15 interesting enough to start the guided communication with. Maybe 5 of them ever responded, and all but one disappeared before we reached the open communication phase. We had two dates, but nothing really developed from it, and that was it. For the remainder of the 3 months I was a member, I would get 1-2 matches a week, and I either wasn't interested in them or they never responded. I cancelled after that. The good thing is that I signed up under a discount rate, so it only cost me $15/month to discover it wasn't very useful.

I didn't listen to it, I just forwarded through the video part.

My fave parody of the eHarmony (though not billed as being one) commericals used to be on Discovery ID Channel; I can't remember the show's title, but it was about couples who kill together. You know how eHarmony has the couples together, and the camera goes to each one, and the person says how great she is, or how I didn't know he loved to do yard work, etc.? Well, Discovery ID had the same sort of shots, but with a MUCH different dialog: "I love how's she's spontaneous!" "I love to go for long walks on the beach--to bury the bodies!" "Who knew she was so good with a shovel?!?" Then, the camera lowers to show them handcuffed together.

Unless they changed it since I was a member. But when I joined you could not select the age range. I contacted eHarmony to ask about it because I didn't like the 12 or 15 year older range. I was 40 years old and I couldn't see myself with someone 55 years old! eHarmony told me that there was no way to select your own age range and that it was their experience that the age range chosen for me is the most successful.

I don't think I had that many matches, and I never met anyone. A huge problem with many of the matches I got were lack of response. I don't even think I got to the open communication phase with anyone.

It really was a huge waste of money. I was paying full price and I forget how long I was a member for....maybe 6 months.

I did have some luck with lavalife and match.com. However the one guy I met on lavalife, while he and I clicked really well and went out a few times and had a wonderful time together, he wasn't ready for another relationship IMO. He had been separated from his wife for almost a year, but I was his first attempt at re-entering the dating game and he never dealt with the separation. He secretly was hoping his wife would take him back. So I was rebound central. Too bad too, because we really had a great deal in common and had that instant feeling of having known each other for eons. The match.com situation wasn't so great. I won't go into details but after 1 date, the guy was already talking to me about how he had just bought a house trailer in some rural community and that it needed a woman's touch and how he wanted me to go out there with him to see it. I'm so not rural, and he was moving way to fast....totally desperate.
