eHarmony first email
| Wed, 12-13-2006 - 4:01pm |
I got to the open stage with a guy from eHarmony today. He initiated the open...His first email says this:
"can you give me your mesenger,or your phone, to have more direct comunication, i might go this weekend to (name of city)"
THATS his first email to me, nothing else, just that, no signature or salutation. 'What a way to set the tone, huh? He doesn't live anywhere near me-- He lives across the US.
Would you respond to this?
I'm about to close down this match unless any of you think I have something to work with here. I don't necessarily give my freggin messenger or phone to ppl I email with nicely for days. Should I let him know we can have a decent email or just close it down?

I wouldn't respond because I wouldn't want to email someone who lives across the country from me, not so much because of that particular email.
Why are you interested in talking with this guy if he doesn't live near you?

Ok, fair enough. In that case, go with your gut--if his email rubs you the wrong way, then you have my permission to say next ;-) (not that you need it, I'm just being facetious).

Congrats on your first Open Communcation (I'm surprised how few of my eharmony matches actually make it there for various reasons!)
The first open communication I ever received
Hi Lola,
Sorry I just now saw your message! This isn't my first time on eharmony. I've been doing it off and on for a couple years. I meant that email was my first ever from that particular guy. (His email just seemed dry and too 'in a hurry'...it didn't really give me a good impression of him.)
I probably won't renew my subscription. I'm not impressed with the matching system either and that new flexible matching just clutters up my account with tons of profiles I would have no interest in. I have like 70% flex-match ppl who all have a characteristic I specifically said I did not want. I wonder if there's a way to turn off flexible matching?? It defeats the whole point of doing eharmony to get all those random 'flexible' matches. KWIM? I want my money back..lol :-)
