When I tried it before it required a credit card to be able to send messages. Without one all you could do was "like" (or something) a profile. As a guy you get zero response without the ability to send messages. I don't even know if I'd have the balls to actually meet someone but I like the thought. I'm just terrified of getting caught and all the issues that would create, I like my life I just want to get laid occasionally. Visa Gift Cards

I'm just terrified of getting caught and all the issues that would create, I like my life I just want to get laid occasionally. Visa gift card and a dummy email mail address. The message thing is exactly right and you need to put a little bait on that message. Something like: "I saw your profile. You are a beautiful woman. I would like to get to know you better to see if there's a connection. I have a feeling we may be in the same situation." Now she will be curious if she has half a brain and want to know what your situation is and if it's the same. Don't be afraid to meet just be smart about it. It got to a point in my marriage when I outsourced, I didn't care if I was caught. I was smart enough not to get caught. It was a once a month thing sometimes we had to skip a month or two because of busy schedules. At one point I felt like I was in a sexless affair. I'm very happy I outsourced it helped me understand how abnormal my marriage was and the sex was great. Two sex starved people in a hotel room for hours, the best! Fortune favors the bold.

There is no payment for women. That's not the case for men. Men at AM probably outnumber women 100 to 1 so the site does everything possible to attract more actual live females to supplement the bots that are used primarily. What most men don't know about AM is that there is very little likelihood of them actually having a conversation with a real woman unless the man pays a # of fees and elevates his membership to a high status. For most men all they will ever do is talk to an AM employee paid to make conversation and thus encourage men to upgrade and pump more money into the AM coffers.

Yeah. For all the unwanted sexual attention that women get, this is the other side of the coin that guys deal with. There's no shortage of people who will manipulate our sexual desires in an effort to separate us from our money. Combine the two, and it makes for a very distrusting dynamic between the sexes.

The algorithms they use for the bots, in terms of timing of messages, content, sensing when they've got a live one on the hook etc are exquisite in their complexity and effectiveness. If it wasn't so awful, it'd be beautiful.

I've been on those sites and had very little luck. Every now and then, I get a message from an alleged 20-something who sends me a naughty pic and says she wants to have sex with me. She looks like Abigail Ratchford or Sarah Underwood, two ladies who are very popular on Instagram. If only it were true! Another bot strikes!

The internet is all horny men.... and people who want their money.... all the craziness drives the women away.... 100 to 1 might be the best ratio on the internet...
So where do all the woman go?

Well, the first and most common place is in your past. Old flames are the most common affair known to man -- or women. The second most probable place is definitely work. Sure that doesn't work for everyone. Personally, I don't work in a field with lots of women, and there are no women in my company. But I've seen it many times. I used to say that was off limits -- and as a younger man, I wouldn't even date legitimately at work. But, desperate times call for desperate measures. Caution and discretion is required here. Then there's definitely Ashley Madison. I've not tried it, but there are at least two WOMEN on this forum that I know of that have done it successfully. Yes, they're women, but they found MEN. Nice well rounded men with good communication skills and a plan. I wouldn't completely discount Craigslist. Way back when I tried it, and found what might have turned into affairs had I not thought better of it. Not thought better of Craigslist, but of the whole affair dealio. Again, you may have to experiment some and learn what works. Make sure your bait is fresh. Stale depressed bait only catches carp. You don't want to eat that. You know, as I think of it, finding women -- as a single man or a married man -- is a whole lot like fishing or hunting. I think the first thing you have to do is decide if you're a fisherman or a hunter. If you're a hunter, all you have to do is find the women. Once you've found them, it's just a matter of bagging her. This is only for the serious lumberjacks. If you're a fisherman, you still have to find them, but then you have to develop and fine tune your game. You have to decide whether or not you'll be using live bait or artificial. If you've got no live bate, you'll have to use artificial. You might even have to use some chum. Depending on what you're fishing for, you'll have to decide if you're going to be setting a trot line, trolling, casting to a very specific location, or jigging. All of these techniques work, but they catch different fish. Regardless of whether or not you're fishing or hunting, you have to define your quarry. Are you hunting for meat or a trophy. Different techniques apply to both. What were we talking about again? "Stale depressed bait only catches carp. You don't want to eat that."

It was a few years ago, but I have to admit that I was one of the chumps that paid AM real money to be messaged by bots asking me to send them gifts. Fortunately I used a gift card to pay and a fake email address for contact, but that experience turned me off to online dating sites. I know they work for some people, but if you are guy on one of those sites, you have to have a high tolerance for BS and deep pockets in order to have any success.

Ok I'm glad to hear that I wasn't the only one paying on that site. So are there any legitimate sites where a guy has a shot at meeting a real person that actually lives in a location near them?

In all honesty I doubt it. Dating sites exist to generate income for their creators and owners. I suppose the pay sites where algorithms are used to match with a compatible partner might offer a better shot but I have talked to people who used Our Time with poor results so it really is a crap shoot. My experience at POF has been generally disappointing. The majority of women there( in my age demographic) just seem to be there because they are bored and it gives them something to do. Or they are just looking for a companion to go to dinner, the movies, a wine tasting or perhaps a day trip. If you are in a younger demographic you might have better luck. In all honesty probably the only "sure" thing if you want to end up having sex is to call an escort service and get yourself a hooker. It may cost a couple hundred bucks but you will definitely get laid.
