		<title>I want my money back (and don&#8217;t forget to give me back my black T-shirt)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We’re nearing the end of this three month experiment, and it’s turned out to be significantly different than my expectations. As I said in the beginning, I’ve had a bit of experience with online dating. While this is the first time I’ve actually paid for a service, I’ve been on several Internet dates in the [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=thedatingproject.wordpress.com&blog=1445797&post=14&subd=thedatingproject&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Speak!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I hate it when a guy chooses &#8220;other&#8221; as his reason to close communication.  There&#8217;s a list of 15-20 different options to select that are pretty all encompassing.  &#8220;Other&#8221; seems like a lame way of saying &#8220;you&#8217;re ugly in those pictures&#8221; or &#8220;I&#8217;m just too lazy to pick the real reason why I&#8217;m closing you.&#8221;  [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=thedatingproject.wordpress.com&blog=1445797&post=13&subd=thedatingproject&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

You could cut ties with all the lies that youve been living in
I am actively communicating with one guy from eH.  He is one who in initial contact I wasn&#8217;t too interested in, but had no real reason to close the match so I proceeded.  [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=thedatingproject.wordpress.com&blog=1445797&post=12&subd=thedatingproject&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Unreasonable expectations?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[- The most important thing s* is looking for in a person is:
compatibility and love, no psycho&#8217;s. I&#8217;m trying to get that irrational drama out of my life. also one important quality that is important to me, and it&#8217;s weird, is my mates genetics. i really want to pass on blue eyes to my kdis [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=thedatingproject.wordpress.com&blog=1445797&post=11&subd=thedatingproject&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Matchmaker, matchmaker, make me a match</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As we drove to Tuscaloosa for a friend&#8217;s birthday party last night, my friend Murray and I talked about one thing almost exclusively: Boys. The ones we date, the ones we don&#8217;t, the ones we wish we were. Y&#8217;know, the usual.
 Maybe that&#8217;s life as single 20somethings, and we&#8217;ve always got stories to tell.
But a month [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=thedatingproject.wordpress.com&blog=1445797&post=9&subd=thedatingproject&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>It&#8217;s foreign on this side</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Okay, so I admit I&#8217;m a dating amatuer.  It&#8217;s kind of lame, but there we have it.  When it comes to all these endless matches filling up my eH inbox, I just don&#8217;t know what to do with them all.
Do I initiate action?  (so against &#8220;real life&#8221; dating philosophy that&#8217;s been drilled into me for [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=thedatingproject.wordpress.com&blog=1445797&post=7&subd=thedatingproject&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>I have no fear of drowning (it&#8217;s the breathing that&#8217;s taking all this work)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So far, I&#8217;ve been pretty overwhelmed by this eHarmony experience.  I haven&#8217;t had much time to spend sorting through all my matches lately so they&#8217;ve been piling up.  Everytime I open my email inbox, I have at least one (if not 2 or 3) sets of emails from eHarmony saying that they&#8217;ve got 7 new [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=thedatingproject.wordpress.com&blog=1445797&post=6&subd=thedatingproject&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>There&#8217;s more to me than what you see</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been on eharmony for nearly two weeks now. I&#8217;ve been &#8220;matched&#8221; with several men, have closed several matches and have moved through the phases into &#8220;open communication&#8221; with two. But my favorite stories (so far) relate to my photos.
Of course pictures are the first thing I see when I receive a new match&#8211;followed quickly [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=thedatingproject.wordpress.com&blog=1445797&post=5&subd=thedatingproject&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>I&#8217;m diving in</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m no stranger to Internet dating. I&#8217;ve tried nearly every site at some point: a three day trial (OK, multiple three day trials) on match, a discounted week on eharmony, true when it was still free for women. But my credit card and I have never really taken the plunge. It&#8217;s been nearly a source [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=thedatingproject.wordpress.com&blog=1445797&post=4&subd=thedatingproject&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>
