I filled out their personality profile and they said they couldn't find any appropriate matches. They do ask literally about 200 questions though, so I spammed lots of the answers.
"eHarmony's patented matching system was developed after extensive research into marital satisfaction. We use each person's responses to our Relationship Questionnaire to predict the pairings of individuals that are highly likely to result in satisfying long-term relationships, based on what we learned through our research.
Unfortunately, based on responses to our questionnaire, we occasionally find situations where our matching system cannot identify high quality compatible matches, and this has happened in your case. Please understand that it is a result of our matching process and in no way reflects on you as a person or your ability to be in a happy relationship."
So basically they are saying "it's not you, it's me"... I hear you loud and clear E-harmony.

Same thing happened to me years ago. About a week later, they started sending me matches that I really had no interest in. Glad I didn't pay for it for long.

Their system is much like the systems a lot of employers use for their "personality profile" multiple guess tests.... Even though it asks 200 questions, it's really only about 60 questions, but they're rephrased different ways multiple times to see how differently you answer them..
I've come to the conclusion you fail at multiple guess tests... :P

You just explained exactly the failing of a 200 question dating profile setup. The vast majority of the questions are redundant and unnecessary. A dating service shouldn't be set up like a Wal-Mart employee quiz on steroids.
I answered the 80 or so that were most relevant to my priorities, and left the rest at the middle setting, which generally means "somewhat important" or "don't care".
But considering the personality analysis they gave was pretty darn appropriate after what I did answer, my guess is they just didn't want my personality type on their website. Was just trying it out for the free weekend, though.
