    Hi all,

    I have recently started online dating. I met a a slightly older woman on a dating app, we met and had a few drinks, where she then tells me she is married and only looking for fun.

    My questions are, Is it common for married women to use dating apps for NSA?? Do any of ye have married friends who use the apps discretely?? New to this so was completely caught off guard and i am curious to know if its a common occurrence??

    Thanks

    Well, if they use the dating apps discretely, then how would I know?

    To the topic though. Have you read your date's profile description on the dating app? Has she marked herself as single and looking for a long term relationship? Or as attached and looking for NSA?

    I guess it depends on what you are comfortable with.

    Not for me, but you're both grown adults, it happens all the time.

    Here's you solution, OP. Have a look on Grindr. If the hubby is there, work away.

    Otherwise I would say, pick better people.

    Whats Grindr???

    Pick better people you say?? Now how in the world would you know if a person is BETTER as you say, unless you meet them just like i did?? Its a profile on a dating app and anyone could turn up to the date. A bit of common sense please.

    In fairness to the woman she told me within 10 mins of meeting.

    Dating sites are awash with both married men and married women.

    Been a while since I was on any but I've bumped into several married women.

    I'd imagine it's common enough. Prob more so on Tinder than any other dating app.

    Seemingly a lot of married men are on Tinder.

    You might be well matched. A better person would have walked as soon as she mentioned infidelity.

    Depends really. Sure the husband might know all about it and is fine with it.

    Loads of dead marriages are like that, staying together for the kids or whatever other collateral arrangement or convenience.

    You should give her your username, seems appropriate.

    I'm on one (what you use to light a fire - no not tinder and not a lighter) and it's mostly older women. Late thirties, forties and fifties.

    Most of them look angry or wired. God knows they could probably do with a bit of NSA to lighten them up. Miserable witches

    My profile states
    I'm not looking for a relationship or anything serious, NSA NSA NSA

    No hopeless romantics, narcissists, or dregs

    Happily single.... Just seeking company now and again.

    It cuts out all the aul retched dramatics and control freaks.

    Ironically my matches have gotten way better.
    Successful educated professional women who are educated, independent and honest.
