I can come up with so many examples of what a scam some of these online dating sites are. For example have you ever just wanted to browse profiles to see what kinds of women are on there? Then right away they want you to put in all your information like email and all that. And when you haven't even joined yet all of a sudden there sending you messages of women who are interested in you or who sent you a message and when you go to click on the link to see who sent you a message or who checked your profile out, it takes you to the sign up page! i've had that so may times. And you know its sad because there just taking advantage of lonley guys.

I was on adult friend finder a few years ago when I worked on the air base here. I thought it was a site to meet people over the age of 21. I met some of them at lunches and they are all full of it on that site. I was on true for a bit and a bunch of fakes on there also. I got no credit cards so it's hard for me to join any of those dating sites.. I pay cash for what I want because I can afford to. I am thinking of putting 4 new tires on my truck today at a cost of $700 and gonna pay cash. Need off road tires to play in the dirt here.

I am only staying on here for the forums as profiles are a bunch of lies anyway. I am gonna keep having fun my way and the hell with the women on the las vegas personals boards. I bought a scooter because I refuse to keep paying $40 a week for gas for my 4x4. It's really fun zipping in and out of traffic on Las Vegas blvd and Industrial road on that motorbike during rush hour.

I work on the city center site at the cosmopolitan resort. I bought the scooter cuz my 4x4 costs me $42 a week in gas to get to and from work. Now I spend about $6 a week. It has a 49 cc engine and gets about 85 MPG. i paid $1200 for it. has electric start and alarm. I feel guilty not giving oil companies $175 a month of my money. i stay in the right lan unless i come up on a construction zone then i zig-zag in and out of the cones.

POF is free yes, but I don't think it has any more of a success rate as any other site. In fact most people on here are on at least one other site.
I think it is possible to meet someone that is truly looking to find someone, but they are few and far between. I think for a lot of people it has become an addiction.
I should write Dr. Phil,,,,,lol

SO Kevin, you mention all the lies several times. What kind of lies? Married posing as not? Old posing as not? Misleading body type? What are the tragic stories that make you so skeptical?

As a straightforward female, I too have been decieved with all the above (and more) so to blanket stereotype all women in this category might be your downfall. Despite the deceptions I still feel this method of meeting awesome people you may never have the chance of running into in real life, is by far the best way to make an introduction in this town. Personally I have never continued an acquaintence with a person who intentionally mislead for the sake of getting that first date, but all in all, the folk I have met are real people just like me, wanting to find a special someone to spend quality time with. Nothing wrong with that.

Women saying they interested in you when they won't give you the time of day, saying they like camping, but only at a hotel or in an RV, saying ur car makes no difference to them..as long as its an expensive sports car or luxury car. i have been lied to by the best. I see women say their body type is "athletic" when they wouldn't be able to keep up with me. You tell me how 5'5 and 150 is athletic?!? I can stand to lose 25 more pounds and run circles around people half my age at work who weigh 50 pounds less than I do. I go hiking and rock climbing. If she really is athletic she better be able to keep up with me.
