Experience with craigslist or other hookup sites?

    So I've been looking at the "casual encounters" section of craigslist mostly out of curiosity but wouldn't mind a bit of how's yer farther if I can get it. It seems that most of them are men seeking men or else scams to trick you out of your credit card details. What I'm really asking is, does anyone have any genuine experience with things like this and is there any truth to it or is the whole concept just a scam preying on horny lads?

    Not Craiglist but have used other 'hook up' sites and apps in the past. Small percentage of strange people on them but most are just genuine folk looking for some hassle free sex.

    Adverts.ie

    Look under the 'iPhone' section, iPhone is code for nookie.

    Have you tried the swingers ad section at the back of the Meath Chronicle?

    I would have thought apps like Tinder would have replaced sites for these sort of meets too.

    Probably have, haven't really tried it to be honest. This whole thing just piqued my interest today.

    Escorts Ireland is your only man. Okay, you have to pay but at least you're getting bang for your buck, in a manner of speaking.

    Just to be clear, that website doesn't sell medium sized saloons from the 80s.

    Buy and sell personals back in the day.

    Bit dark man, the chap needs to to learn to walk before he can run.... The Meath Chronicle back pages can be pretty heavy in fairness.

    Met a woman of gumtree once, turned out to be a well known news journo!!

    Went for a few drinks, she booked a ****y hotel room and of we went!

    Has some fun in her place a while later in a nice part of the Southside.

    Good times!!

    Jaysus - just go out and have a few pints and talk to a girl would ya?

    Feckin' young people wanting the internet to do everything for them.

    We were having casual sex long before your Craigslists and your Tinders so we were.

    Feckin' young people - wouldn't know about legwork if it came up behind them, rode them and gave them the clap so they wouldn't.

    Take my word for this.
    pof.com is your only man when it comes to casual sex.
    Forget everything else.
    Its free, and is the best bang for buck as a result.
    Craigslist is full of horny men, gay men pretending to be women to get dick pictures. And Skype webcam blackmailers etc.
    Escorts Ireland is owned by an ex-RUC officer; enough said.
    And the other paid sites are a con; but a fool and his money are easily parted.
    Gumtree used to be OK when it had a personals section, but that is long gone.
    So now pof.com is the one when it comes to connecting with rides.
