It’s another free weekend at eHarmony which can only means one big thing: the opportunity to talk to your matches for absolutely free. The free weekend will run from March 29th, starting first thing in the morning, and will run until the end of the day on April 2nd. You don’t need a credit card for this free communication weekend. If you create a free account (or log into your existing account) you can start the communication process at no cost.

It only rolls around a few times a year, these free weekends. I kind of look at it as test driving a car. If you don’t like it, there aren’t any worries because you don’t have to buy. If you do like it then take it home with you…so to speak. The big difference is where you can test drive a car most days, these test drives only come around every now and again.
Additional Details on Free Weekends
The only drawback you may not like is the fact that you can not see your matches photos unless, of course, you pay for the site. If you have good communication skill this won’t matter. You can still talk with people and see who they are from the way they respond to you. Getting to know someone through communication without seeing a picture makes it easier in my opinion. You don’t have the pressure if they are the model type and no pressure if they are not. It’s like Russian roulette, but I think you can make a deeper connection because you need to go beyond the physical, and use your intellect. Can’t hurt to try, and nothing to lose because it’s free. And if you go on a first date and there’s no chemistry, well, it’s just a first date and not some major commitment. So to me it’s a no-brainer. Who knows you might meet someone that you really click with.
When the free period is over, you may want to become a member to keep the conversation going. With that in mind, it’s important to watch the calendar: the free weekend may be longer than the weekend but it still comes to an end!
From a personal perspective, I’ve been quick to try the free eHarmony weekend in the past. In my most recent attempt, I was unable to meet someone. The weekend was plenty long enough. I just didn’t find anyone I clicked with, BUT that doesn’t mean you will have the same experience and I’m still happy to see additional free weekends roll around.
Please be advised if you have used the free weekend in the past you will still be able to do so again. This is for newbies and for the old-pros. Everyone is invited. That seems fair to me, plus if it was only new people that would mean you’d have less people to talk to during the free weekends. So I’m glad everyone is invited! You might ask, if you could use the free communication over and over again then why ever sign up? And I think some people are able to use the service that way, which is fine if it works for them. Apparently eHarmony is fine with people who do this.
If you’re new to online dating and looking for a great way to get your feet wet again, this opportunity is for you. Good luck with your online dating!
