Why eHarmony didn't work out for me

On a Tuesday night last July, I felt very depressed and lonely—as I had for over two years—because the Sacramento Tall Club did not accept persons under 21 years old.  I finally said I'd had enough, so the next night I signed up for eHarmony.

I did well enough on the beginning survey, and they didn't say I was unmatchable.

Especially not because of my answer to this question:

"Other than your parents, who has been the most influential person in your life and why?"

I was foolish enough to say God—not because he influenced my philosophy or anything, but from a philosophical standpoint.  But they took advantage of my naïveté by putting me with only Christian women.

They all wanted kids, even though I hated children and did not want any at that time.

In order for them to take any changes into account from my profile, I would have had to paid what I consider a pricey monthly fee.  Because I live on Social Supplemental Income (SSI), it wasn't an option for me.
