They certainly take effort to make sure you’re in the right mindset.

Dear eHarmonyblog,

I want to sincerely thank you for becoming a subscriber and partner with us here at eHarmony. You have taken an exciting first step in what we believe is the best way to overcome the difficulties many of us face in finding and getting to know the right person for a lasting and happy relationship!

eHarmony is the only service of its kind, matching singles from the inside out, based on what works in successful marriages. It can be an adjustment at first. Therefore, we’d like to help you understand how eHarmony works and what to expect.

• We judge compatibility – You judge chemistry! In this partnership, we bring you singles that match you on the inside. Don’t let matches where initial chemistry is not strong discourage you. When you find a special person with whom you sense chemistry and attraction you’ll know you’re set to get to know each other better.
• Not every match will work out. That is normal. You will close some of them. They will close some others, and some matches may never respond to you. Realize that all you need is one success. You only need one person to share a brilliant relationship and when you meet them, the matches that didn’t work won’t matter at all. In order to succeed, you must be willing to risk failure.
• eHarmony can be a slow process. We ONLY match you when we’ve determined an extremely high level of compatibility. This means that we would rather have you wait for a great match than experience a mediocre one. We’re proud of this stringent matching process, and remember, we’re doing the sifting so you won’t have to.
• Be an active participant! Be sure you contact all your matches, close any matches that don’t respond in two week’s time and keep your personal information current. Also remember that your matches are going to want to see your picture in Open Communication. Upload your photos as soon as possible.
• Think outside the box! Most of us have preconceived notions of what type of person is best for us. eHarmony matches you based on 29 dimensions of compatibility. Set your prejudice aside and explore each person…your Soul Mate may be completely different than what you expect.

Thank you again for joining us here at eHarmony! Remember that using eHarmony is a “process” not a single event. We’ve worked for thousands of singles and we can work for you.

Sincerely,

eHarmony Customer Care
