| Dating Sites Are ALL PHONEY!!
Posted: 5/17/2005 8:03:44 PM | I've been on about 8-10 sites over 5 months now. It is mostly (for Guys) just 'Cyber Curious' women seeing what they can stir. Hate to sound pessimistic but that is simply where it lays...Women (i'm guessing or gay or crazy guys... I dont know) post profile 'information' that NO WOMAN ever comes out with in person! When you 'chat' for a while then propose meeting, even for coffee or a simple telephone call, they make like Casper.....It's like the ol' High School 'tease' thing they never outgrew! Except for the desparate or homely, I doubt if ANY of these women really meet! I havent talked to ONE male (whose opinion I TRUST)that has anything but dashed hopes on any site. It's like a giant Hen Party..Arrogant, condescending or sanctimonious remarks or sexual innuendo that is only intended to be for THEIR gratification. Think about it Guys, HOW MANY Women who are REALLY are looking for a Man would be on here PERPETUALLY..To say ACTUALLY say YES to Man would mean OUT and getting LAID!!! | |

Posted: 5/18/2005 7:48:50 AM | | I don't think they are phoney I think a lot of people are scared of that first meet because you can't really show your personallity online.I have talked to a bunch of ladies online but no meets. On the other hand if I see a cutie and I introduce myself,talk for a few and exchange numbers I almost always get a call because they have seen me,talked to me and are comfortable with me. | |

Posted: 5/20/2005 5:57:08 PM | Just curious.. If they're all phony, why you here?!?
I've only just joined PoF recently and therefore can't speak for this site, but when I was a member of AFF last year when I finally got rid of my ex and was just looking to have some fun. I met a few from my city and one from another city where I was travelling to fro business.
These sites do work. Not everyone will get the results they expect though. | |

Posted: 5/21/2005 12:06:26 AM | | No, these sites don't always have results. Sometimes people send thoughtful messages just to get no replies or a bunch of one-liners but you have to respect that not everyone is on dating sites to look for dates or hook-ups. Some people are just on here because of the forums or because their friends are members of the sites, and the choice of staying or going rests solely on each individual. | |

Posted: 5/21/2005 7:38:41 PM | If you read several of the post you'll pop up several really attractive Bi-Females and several women with lines like " I want to have sex all night if you're lucky" ect...
First off most women I've been around wouldn't want the type of men that type of ad would attract and IMHO there can't be that many attractive Bi-F in a 50 mile search.
So If you at least "try" to tune out all the lame post you may get lucky.
I have been risking some "maybes" since it seems there are so many of these to good to be true posts.
Don't get me wrong there are some VERY beautiful women on-line here but, for the life of me I can't figure out why the need to come to the internet to find a man.
All they need to do is walk into ANY Porsche dealer and wave there bunns in front of some nice looking CPA.
I am guessing several come her for attention that the CPAs are not giving them because hubby is to busy.
It is the woman that picks the man and almost never the other way around.
So I figured I'd get my pretty face on as many web sites I can and see if one will give me a chance. I think that's about the best you can hope for unless you have several people you know that can hook you up.
I find making friends at this age pretty hard considering I work a hell of a lot.

You forgot to mention the egotistical, male chauvinist pigs, that seem to group all women into one "category!"
Perhaps you're looking for something you cannot have.
Stop being pessimistic, be a realistic and go for someone, umm, perhaps closer to your own age, or better yet, someone seeking "exactly" what you seek.

Posted: 5/23/2005 5:01:36 PM | | Way to go Shells!! Guys that complain that women are on here looking to "dash their hopes" and play games forget that the sword cuts both ways. There are plenty of guys on all sites who state specifically they are looking for a life-size Barbie "and feel they are not going to settle for anything less". Well to those fellows I say. Barbie is on isle 9 at Wal-Mart and a bargain and $11.95. To the truly sincere gentlemen who would like to meet nice ladies, I say keep trying guys we are out here. You just have to find the one that is right for you. | |

Posted: 5/23/2005 6:53:06 PM | well my i have met some females from this site , under one of my other names
it funny they all said they not into one night stands and want a long term relationship
but the first time we talk in here they gave out their phone numbers and want to meet that day
when we did meet, we had coffee , then went back to her place and then she took off her clothes and wanted sex thats when i asked her about a long term relationship
she then said if you dont have sex with me i can find some one that will
so she went back on the computer and into this and a couple of other sites ...
i wished her luck and left
if she did that to me , i just wonder how many others she did that to
and that has happen more them once with others
so if there is any people who does want a long term relationship in dating sites they are far and few between | |

Posted: 5/23/2005 9:15:41 PM | | Well, you are a poor one to talk. Your profile says you are married. Why are you out with that girl in the first place? Not judging anyone, just saying don't complain about anyone when you are in the wrong as well. | |

Posted: 5/24/2005 7:45:51 AM | | Smart move fella - saw you changed to "single" from married. Trying to hide the true you. Well, if that's what makes you happy - just remember, what goes around comes around. | |

Posted: 5/24/2005 12:42:38 PM | I've met (in person) plenty of very nice women (also married or looking for no-strings safe fun) on here and on webdate. We've had a lot of fun and I think these sights are great and real.
But you have to keep your feet on the ground. No 20 year old hottie wants to go out with a crusty old man. And take it from me...you are a crusty old man...I am a crusty old man (and dirty too...lol) Hell, ANYONE over 30 is a crusty old man to a 20 year old.
If you MUST have a beautiful 20 year old in your bed there are only two ways to do it...make millions and host "The Apprentice" or get on another type of website where the girls charge by the hour...
Get real.... when you search the age range should be 35 to 55 not 18 to 25 lol. | |

Posted: 6/1/2005 10:45:46 AM | saw your post "...First off most women I've been around wouldn't want the type of men that type of ad would attract and IMHO there can't be that many attractive Bi-F in a 50 mile search..." - I use to think the same thing...was married for over 13 years, prior to my marriage I met a very beautiful, sexy and successful bisexual female, tall, leggy, smart as a whip, blond, green-eyes, fantastic and to this day she is a 'soulmate' of mine. We got as close as two people could get and remain close today, during my marriage, we primarily talked about everything under the sun, topics many are curious about, but are affraid to admit that they want to know about. Through her and her friends, I have been lucky and fortunate enough to be invited to their 'bisexual / female' parties (have attended 3) where the only guys that are invited are gay, except for me...yes I know I am lucky, but you also have to understand that I truly care and value her friendship, if I did not she would know it and I would not be invited. Also, I am not their to pickup on anybody, rather there to party (non-sexual) and have an all around great time! I usually stay the night and cook em all breakfast in the morning...I did it the first time, now they sorta expect it, lol. Usually there are 4 - 5 couples (F-F of course spending the night in the house where the party is held. I usually sleep by myself, except one party where I shared a couch with one of her ex's.
The point is, they are out there (bisexual / lesbian) women. You just are not aware of them because they do not know that you can be trusted with their reputation, as many of them are very selective who they tell about their lifestyle choice. I was lucky to have met her, once I did I nutured the relationship, the friendship because I enjoyed her company and she enjoyed mine. You could say that I feel very blessed in many, many ways!
And the younger ladies today, 18 - 30, are even more likely to be bisexual then the ladies that are older. Oh yes, if you are lucky enough to be befriended and you nurture and respect the relationship, over time, you could host the bisexual / lesbian parties and let them get the word out and yes, they will come! (Makes me think of Field of Dreams,lmao)  You Host party ->  <- They will come! | |

Posted: 6/1/2005 11:39:25 AM | | <<<< (looks at himself) I'm not phoney. As others have said "relax" dont try to instantly find somone overnight, I know you said that you have been on for about 5 months or somthin, but honestly, would you rather hook up with someone quick to set yourself up for disappointment, or just play it cool and wait for Ms.Right to come along and grab your fishing net and scoop her up! | |

Posted: 6/1/2005 1:29:59 PM | shelley High five!! A 48 y/o man looking for 18 to 36. An 18 y/o is young enough to be his kid!! Maybe he needs to consider that younger women aren't interested in him....he's only been on HERE a few weeks, already he's posting this negative crap.
Maybe being on 8 to 10 sites and no nibbles on his hook in 5 months, if he's a phd (FOR REAL) and that intelligent he wouldn't be asking a dating forum. Not a rocket scientists to figure that out. He's fishing in the wrong pond with the wrong pole!! | |

Posted: 4/16/2008 1:19:03 PM | That must explain why I haven't been meeting many women on the sites and no replies back.
I feel hopeless and this isn't fair to people who have reasons for online dating.
We need to straighten up the popluar sites. | |

Posted: 4/16/2008 4:39:18 PM | Well, OP, have you looked at your profile? You don't get something for nothing on this site, or anywhere in life for that matter. Perhaps you should narrow your age range, and not use this site to advertise your desire to find a "live-in" and you would have better luck. Instead, you are creating threads about how women "make like Casper" when you suggest meeting. It's easier to blame all women on pof for your lack of success than it is to look at your own actions and attempts to meet someone. Perhaps they are not looking to be automatically be a living arrangment and nothing else to you, since that is exactly what you seem to be looking for. Oh yes, and getting "LAID", judging from how I construed that post, although I'm not too sure if you meant that was what you were looking for or what the women on pof were looking for, dechipering rants is often difficult.
Many women on this site are indeed looking for a man. To meet one as well. Not all women "make like Casper" when you suggest meeting. Instead of seeking validation on the attempt you have made at explaining your lack of success to yourself by assuming most women on here are "High School 'tease'(s)", "Cyber Curious" and "seeing what they can stir", look at your own actions. Start with looking at your post. Then look at your profile. You get what you want in life, not what you don't want, and you don't get something by giving nothing. | |

Posted: 6/7/2008 8:58:50 AM | fling.com has redirection and a new review site called PlentyofOtherFish.net is a scam reiview site that tells you about other free sites. None of the other sites were free and AmateurMatch.com actually had a trojan horse in it and was completely false and fabricated stuff. I can alwo tell you from personal experience that yahoo persomals are a total scam. It's just a big double blind psych experiment going on in there between yahoo and the psychiatric community. Be careful there may be psychologists in plenty of fish portraying themselves as women who want a date and are reallly just shrinks. Also any POF photos MAY contain vira. Do not copy photos from this site! good luck fishing folks, you will need it if you come from Maine. Women here are nuts, unavailable, available to everyone or lie about their descriptions......  | |
