PROFILES ON POF AND ON SEX SITES?

Well I got one question for you on this one? IF THEY ARE ON THOSE SITES AND YOU SAW THEM? THAN DOESN'T THAT MEAN YOU WENT TO THAT SITE? AND WE ALL KNOW WHAT somespamsite IS. So it begs me to ask you how can you talk smack on these people cuz some of us men are on both also. when you in fact have been surfing around on those sites trying to see us naked in the first place? Just wondering

Let's all be real here. Both men and women have profiles on this site, those sites and I am sure other sites also. Who cares and what is the big deal. Each of the sites represent a different view point on the dating world and of being single. A website in itself doesn't make a person bad or good. This is a conservative site compared to those others when it comes to dating. We all like sex... we all want sex... . The thing other websites offer people are a commonality. If your a sexual person and you like a lot of sex then what is wrong with searching on a more liberal site? Just being on those sites don't mean your a swinger, a swapper or a perv. I am sure those who are judging have no room to be judged themselves. Until you talk to someone, meet that someone in person and learn about them. You won't know the true them, the real them. Maybe the issue these complainers have is that not only aren't they having any luck getting a date on this site, but maybe... just maybe they are upset that they can't get sex from women that say that is what they are after. Complaining and putting other people down is a person's way of trying to make themselves feel better about something... like being rejected.

Why do people think that its a game to have a profile on a sex site and on POF? I'll be the first to say I do. I'd love to meet someone who has the sex drive I do and on POF. So what I love my body and myself and would like to meet a guy not for "sex only" but a partner who has the intelligence and other areas to satisfy my needs too.

I've seen a couple of men on here on AFF that have a POF don't kid yourself its not just women.

HAHA! No, really. ROTFLMGDAO!

So, some chick is here on POF, portraying herself to be June Cleaver ISO Ward, but at the same time, is over at C4P looking for someone to tear it up and... 'scuse me, what's the problem here? She's a hypocrite? I see...

Meanwhile, Ward Cleaver is here on POF, portraying himself to be a wholesome family man with values, but, for some unknown reason, just 'happens' to know that June is over at C4P. 'Splain this to me: What's a wholesome family man like Ward doing over at C4P to begin with? Pot, meet Kettle...Kettle, meet Pot.

I'd be willing to bet that the OP would need a double dose of nitro if he were to find out that there are also quite a few known 'escorts' here on POF with profiles that do not mention their profession, who are also looking for a good man, long term relationships, possibly even marriage.

In the grand scheme of things, does it really matter? Only to those who do not fully understand the 'lifestyle' (or for that matter, the 'profession'), those who have issues with insecurity and jealousy, and those with controlling personalities. Give it up, guys.

Maybe Ward "just happens" to be over at that other site checking out the story he got on the date with June. I am old enough now to no longer trust anyone just because they look me in the eye and tell me something. Maybe Ward is, too. (It goes both ways, so June might be there for the same reason.) Neither of them may be there for any other reason. I don't know, but am willing to bet that it is cheaper to have a profile on a number of those sites than it is to order a PeopleFinder check on a person.

I am not suggesting that anyone posting pics on a site is in that same category; I'm just saying that there are many more reasons for a person's actions than we can ever know.

Also, to quote a friend, "Just because I'm on a diet doesn't mean I can't look at the menu." So, maybe Ward likes looking around, until June comes home and only wears his pearl necklace forever more.

All I'm saying is that unless you have a foolproof way to know, then anything you suspect about a person is circumstantial...guilt by association...or worst of all, a media-style slaying based on rumor, inneuendo, and evil intent.

I've tried being up front, and honest on here, and all it's brought me personally is grief.
Unfortuantely, all ladies cry for honesty, trust, and open communication, and then are just incapable to replying in kind. This appears to be just one more example of the double standard ladies try, and often succeed, on imposing on men. Aren't there any honest, horny, passionate, SINGLE ladies out there actually capable of a real relationship? I'm beginning to wonder.

I am sorry that being up front, and honest has brought you grief. It's opening up your heart, and being who you are. Who needs just a facade? If one's self image, or the image portrayed to others is predicated on posturing, nothing is real. What kind of relationship can come from that? Up front and honest is the only way to be.

Yes dear, there are indeed honest, horny, passionate, single ladies out here who are not only actually capable of a real relationship, but actually are longing to find exactly that. Don't give up looking.

When I first started online dating, I used only one site similar to this one. I later joined AFF only after a lot of persuasion from a friend who told me it wasn't a sleaze/swinger site, even though it's billed that way.

I met far more men from the AFF site, and not one of them turned sexual, actually. We went on a few dates, enjoyed each other's company, but alas, there wasn't quite the connection.

By the time I joined AFF, I'd been on three other sites (.com, match.com, and singlesnet.com) and hadn't met anyone I even wanted to meet with once. (I did finally meet someone on who became a serious partner in my life for about a year.)

Just because I'm on AFF and PoF doesn't mean I'm a whore. It means that I value "real" and found more of it there.

Da*n, I'm way late on this thread. The op isn't here anymore.

But hey, I'd say the same thing to him that I say to the women that b*tch and complain about guys looking for sex, being "used", etc.

If you feel you're being "used" for a free meal, quit paying. That's what I would do. Better yet, let them pay their way and you pay yours that way if things don't work out your wallet is less worse for wear. If you feel it's a man's obligation to pay then you may as well feel it's the man's obligation to quit complaining about paying if things don't go your way because it's going to happen sooner or later. There's women out there that are quite capable of paying their own way and don't have a problem with it.

And as far as people using other sites for whatever reasons, so what? Who the hell is anyone to shove their "morality" down someone else's throat? Profiles are relative, people can see whatever they want in them. That's why you have to use your common sense, some powers of perception and observation and get to know what you need from the person before you put yourself in a position you don't want to be in. And if in spite of all that, if things go wrong, learn from your experience. You burn, you learn. If you continue to complain about being "used" and "played", the "users" and "players" will see you as an easy mark and take advantage of it.

If you're going to complain about someone wanting to get laid then God only knows what else you complain about Too much negativity........

Did you try contacting the site administrators and pass the info on to them?

^^^Not anymore, Dena darlin'! Just hope that he doesn't sneak back in with a different username.
As I mentioned in another thread - google is your friend, people! Always, always google their screen name, real name, etc.

You need to wonder why you chase after a woman, knowing full well that you are unsafe and undateable. Google this name!

What about men who are on here pretending to be here looking for a serious relationship with a woman, just to find he has a profile and pictures on a gay site? It goes both ways... yuck .... unless it's a woman .

Ugh, there was a girl on here doin the exact samething, only it was on Craigslist and she was offerin sex for PILLS! I feel sorry for the guy who finds her on this site and dates her, cause I actually talked with her about it and she told me she has had to do quite a few things for oxycodine. I think she's addicted, cause she only talked to me whenever I mentioned the word "pills" in a text message. She'd respond within moments of me sending it, but if I don't have any pills, I wouldn't hear from her....horrible...But I agree, both sexes do do this, I believe it's more common with men than with women tho.

It is hilarious to read some of these threads. I have met women on POF that were on other sites like AFF, hell even on the ALTFF. And have become friends with all of them, granted it helped being deployed while talking to them. Had to wait six months to see them, so helped to get to know them before meeting. So a couple did end up as sex on the first night. But the thing is POF is date site, lots of people looking for this friend who may be more. Heck some are even lying about the married part, on both male/female sides. Where they go to the other sites like AFF looking for someone to thrill them sexually. I found a couple of my friends on both or even more than that, it benefited me. So instead of complaining on the issue why not take advantage of it and use the combination of sites to see what your friend, or current partner, is truely looking for and putting yourself ahead of the game. It helps when you know all the information on what the other is looking for.
