KSFY wants your “Rejected by eHarmony” stories

Leslie RupiperI got a short note today from Leslie Rupiper, television news anchor and reporter of Station KSFY, Sioux Falls, South Dakota. Thanks for your note, Leslie. She wrote,

I am working on a television news story about people who have been rejected by eHarmony. I live in South Dakota and would love to find someone from this state, but would also be interested in talking with someone from Nebraska, Iowa or Minnesota. Can anyone help me?

Can you? Respond here or respond directly to her email.

    I’m not a eH reject but I hope that Leslie will temper her report and do the appropriate background research to make it as factual as possible and not a “puff” piece. Dr. Warren’s books are a quick read and will give her a good idea as to why someone might be rejected, aside from the obvious reasons stated here. I think those other reasons (aside from sexual orientation, over marrying, not divorced) are important in determining the success of a relationship and if someone truly wanted to seek help and change, they could honestly and successfully re-take the test and “pass” but it seems like it is intrinsic to the criteria that cause a person to be rejected that they won’t do that…

    Oh, FWIW, I haven’t been blogging because I’ve got several OC’s in progress. Yay!

    Leslie, I can tell you that the number of sentiments and insight of people on the issue is limited. eHB’s ‘Rejected by eHarmony’ category and our Poll #12 covers them in good detail. In addition:

    * Read these sentiments raw in this Youtube video’s comments.
    * eDateReview has 1400 anonymous reviews.
    * Pop by the “without_eharmony” group, too.

    I trust this is enough material for a couple of minutes of air time. If you ask MY opinion, I think eHarmony would be better with a sign on the front door saying, “we don’t cater to everyone” and a kind explanation.

    I was rejected by eharmony. I pride myself in self awareness and have to admit, the survey result was right on it. It reflected that I was indeed, what I strive to be: balanced. I sit “on the fence” in almost every category, simply because my reactions, though the same methodology always applies, are situational. I am very analytical, yet still flexible and very much okay with the world around me just as it is.

    Am I having trouble meeting someone who intellectually and emotionally matches me, yes – because they fall into categories; they are extreme in one area or another. My results actually say “Lucky you, you are what most strive to be” because I am balanced and then tell me there is no one like me in their enormous dating pool. I am very saddened by this.

    Sincerely,
    Kerri Pinger

    I was on eharmony for awhile, cause I didnt get out of my house very much and thought maybe I could meet a really nice guy for myself and my daughter. I met a few guys and the thrid one I fell madly in love with. Thought he was the one, and then come to find out that I was just a rebound girl from his ex girlfriend, whom he met on eharmoney. And lives only 20 mins from me…lol. And now after five months, two breakups with him, and pently of gas money driving 600 miles to visit twice, I know now that eharmony can only cause heartbreaks. I would not recommend eharmony to anybody loving for true love. Find it in yourself and relize what the love of your family can bring you instead.
