Hitting the point that I might take my peeving past online fun. Saw an ad for Ashley Madison affair dating site and started wondering if it was real or a scam. Wondering if anyone has had positive or negative stories about the site or other sites or suggestions.

Let me know!
 
I'm curious as well. I almost joined, but felt that last minute hesitation that said it might be a scam.
 
?

It would be great to have some real life experience with this.

Hopefully we will have some men and women with stories and suggestions!

A few years ago, I was on that site. Met some real nice guys and had wonderfully sex affair with a man...and then his wife when she found out!
 
Rae,

Wow that's great news! Was it private and not too many fake people on there? I'm a good looking 38 yr old, but I don't have many opportunities to meet people outside of my group of friends. I am looking for something that takes me away from my daily life. Just fun, not looking to leave as I have kids that are in a great place right now. Just looking for friends that also want to be in degrees of nakedness together.
 
Thanks Rae

Any guys out there have tips on using Ashley Madison?
 
I imagine that with any dating site, it's a meat market. The ladies have their choice of who they want and us guys cross our fingers and hope a nice guy does finish first with some hot fun.

I have also thought about joining the site to potentially being a wifes dirty secret, but haven't gotten there yet.

Good idea on the thread though
 
I'm a member. So far I've contacted some 53+ women, with no response. Not no positive responses, just no responses at all.

As looking4mom says, it's a meat market. Like most such sites, the men outnumber the women by a ratio of about 2 or 3 to 1.

If you're under 50, a professional, work out 3-4 times a week, and don't smoke, and can afford a "love nest", you probably have a shot.

On the other hand, once you get past the initial buy-in of "credits" it doesn't cost much if anything, so I keep sending out contacts on the theory that "if you throw enough at the wall, sooner or later something will stick'. But it's anybody's guess as to how long that might take. Could be years...
 
Well, I'm 38 not a gym rat but in a shape other then round. I have a very good job and most girls find me attractive, but I just don't know if Ashley Madison can really find someone worth playing with.

Does everyone see your pictures? I'm not in the financial position to be divorced. Single earner that makes good money but not enough to pay 50% to my spouse.

Keep the stories coming guys and girls.
 
Maybe Valentines day is the wrong time to pose these questions.
 
If it has similar dynamics to Fling.com, then I estimate the male-to-female ratio is closer to between 5-10:1. It may not seem that bad at first, but in my year on Fling it seemed roughly half of the female profiles were bogus, possibly made with stolen credit cards in hopes of baiting men into being phished.
 
Is there a better site for a married guy to post on than Ashley Madison. I'm 38 and need to have more sexual contact then I have currently.

No. They have a system where you can keep your pics private and give out keys to your "private showcase". You CAN put your face pic on your profile, and there are a lot of women who put pics up from the neck down, but you don't have to put your face up.

As for "better" sites, no. There are a multitude of sites--MarriedButLonely, Married Hall Pass, Cheating Wives, Horney Wives, etc., etc. Do a google search for "married dating websites" and you'll find many.

Trouble is, like Michiro says, they all are set up pretty much like Fling!: many more men than women, and a lot of the women's ads are bogus. The website is set up to entice you to spend money on "upgrades" or "premium memberships".

As part of that dynamic, they set up fake ads of women stating they're hot and ready to go, complete with a pic they've just skimmed off the web, then either have bots that send autogenerated responses to enquiries to keep you interested and paying, or paid responders who pretend to be the person in the ad but might live in Sri Lanka or someplace.

Probably your best bet is Adult Friend Finder, though they tend to cater mostly to swinging couples and singles. Finding another married woman who wants to have an affair is like searching for the proverbial needle in the haystack--possible, but what are the odds? And if you do find one, she'll be in Vancouver BC or Miami FL, not anywhere near you.

It's frustrating, but there just are no good answers.
 
swinglifestyle.com

Totally free, free to post & view non-nude pics. Like all sites, it's 40:1 women to men ratio. But at least your wallet didn't get raped in the process.
 
Look on Plentyoffish....it says its more of a dating site. But really a lot of them just want a hook up. Just my 2 cents...
 
met a few off POF with good luck. Use to be a free site not sure if it still is but it worked for me.

I never treid Ashley or fling but I did try Adult Friend Finder a few years ago and had a few hits worth talking about, as all the sites though there are tons more men than women and a lot of the women are spam.

Additionally given that it is a "cheaters/hookup" site most people tend to fuck up not down..so keep that in mind.


Finally, you will have about the same luck picking girls up in public with shitty one liners at the grocery store, reastraunt, bar, work or whatever than you will on any of these sites. The fear of rejection is just that, a fear. Conquer that and your golden. After a few slaps in the face, curse outs, laughed in the face...you learn to shoot the bull and eventually you come across someone that shares your sentiments, whatever those might be and you would be surprised at the number of women that are dirtier than you will ever be.

Sorry, I don't know what that means. Explain, please?

It's not a matter of finding dirty girls, it's a matter of finding someone discreetly.
We're married and either don't want or can't afford a divorce; ergo, we can't just 'chat up/hook up' with random women at work or in our neighborhood without it eventually getting back to the wife, which defeats the purpose.
 
Just an update for those who want to know! Ashley Madison is both for real and a scam. Full disclosure in less then a week I have 1 date set up, another finding a time in our schedules and found an amazingly hot friend who lives far away. I'm under 40 that probably helps! I am good looking, probably a plus and I do have some game thanks to watching people on Lit.

Hint don't act sexual, the time will come for that and the women are not looking for a picture of your dick! Act like you would at a bar. Be fun and flirtatious, if they want to see your package they will let you know!

what's the scam?
 
aj, do you use the "im chat" feature, or do you just email?
I've heard that the chat feature works best, but it's expensive I think.

Also, do you have your face pic on your profile or do you use the "secret gallery"?
I don't put my face on my profile, as I never know who else (like one of her friends, maybe) may decide to join or just browse around.

Yeah, and what she said: What do you consider the "scam" part?
 
Good read. Been considering joining a site to see if I can find a date and hook up.
