Bumping the thread to serve as a reminder as why not to use this service. The man I was matched with and dated turned out he had lied on his profile about alot of things (education, family, I could go on). I dumped him and he still won't leave me alone. Today he showed up on my doorstep unannounced.
Avoid eharmony.

Sounds like he's on the road to a restraining order.

I wouldn't put that on eHarmony, plenty of people go cuckoo for cocoa puffs, even when you've known them for awhile before you got romantically involved. I think in general people need to be safe with personal information, even if you don't meet them on the internet.

I agree. Stories like that have been going on for decades, since long before dating sites existed. My mom had a stalker in that late 50's after she told him she didn't want to date anymore. She had to get a restraining order, even then. Sadly, there is no way to screen out crazy until you know someone, and possibly even until you dump someone.

I have a friend who was set up with a co-worker's cousin. It turned out said cousin had never gotten divorced or even physically separated even though he had told his WHOLE FAMILY that he had. Freaky.

I met my boyfriend on Plentyoffish. We've been together since summer of 2008.
