I was chatting to a girl on POF a few weeks ago and after a bit of yapping, she said she called off her imminent wedding after catching her husband to be on an adult/swingers website, swopping intimate pictures some woman. What scared her most of all, and this is as true for guys who use escorts, is that you don't need to even get off your sofa now to cheat, (assuming you are in a relationship).

What a f**king eejit.

I always find that part of the night really cringey. Driving home through town is always an eye opener... I've seen everything.... the vomiting, the urinating in the street (not exclusive to men), the fighting, the running out in front of cars.... It's not pretty, and repeatedly reinforces my decision not to drink.

At the risk of sounding sexist - there's nothing more off putting than a mouthy drunk, woman.

Ahh I'm sure he gets regular tests done and uses protection everytime. Sure its probably no more risky than fornicating with promiscuous wimmin that are picked up in nightclubs.

A prostitute could sleep with a number of different men a night where as a promiscuous women might only sleep with a few a year so there is obviously a much higher risk of catching something off a guy who avails of their 'service'.

edit: oh yeah. I actually got a reply on Friday. There was a 12 day gap since my initial message mind you. Is that normal/to be expected?

Sometimes I read a message and if I'm busy forget to reply until I see it in my inbox again often many days later. I'd give them the benefit of the doubt initially at least.

She could have been away or was seeing someone so didn't log in. I think it's normal.

Yeah very normal. The girl I'm seeing for our first date next Fri took a little while to get back to me. Now I know that she works/has training all the time so always good to remember that some people are just busy and not always online.

Yeah, I agree with the 'benefit of the doubt' approach. That said, if we start conversing properly I'd hope to have to wait significantly shorter periods between messages :pac:

I doubt a prostitute would sleep with anyone without a condom. From what I have read they don't even kiss on the mouth or eh go down without a condom. It's the moral thing of a guy seeing a prostitute I'd have rather than fear of catching anything. A guy who sleeps around with random girls would be more risky in an sti sense as there's a higher chance of him not wearing condoms with some girls.

Of course, I was been sarcastic. Although I wouldn't exactly call a few a year promiscuous. A few a month maybe, but not a year.

If they are one night stands then I think that is promiscuous.

I've just seen someone on POF who I find very attractive. WTF do I say to her in an introductory message??

I haven't got a clue!!???

Wow... I was mailing a guy on POF this evening, seemed normal...

I asked how long he had been using online dating..POF is his first venture into online dating as such he said, however he has used the internet to find high class escorts on escort ireland when he has been between relationships. He then sent me a link to his profile on the escort website, where he has posted reviews of 29 of his 'dates'... oh my f****** god! :eek:

I actually snorted laughing when i read this earlier ... so much so i had to reply ...

Quality bloke for sure, interesting how you say .. he seemed normal, and then disclosed the real truth, makes you wonder what secrets others keep to them selves ..

Snorting? Attractive...

I've no doubt he is normal... everyone has their little secrets, though sometimes they are best kept as such.

I've done that. It seems ye have to pay to upgrade to some features on POF???? Not doing that tbh. Not going to pay to join a site.

You don't have to pay to send and receive mail on POF. Paid features include a 'hottest girls list' and your profile pic appears bigger in women's searches. IMO there's enough features on the unpaid version.

Is it possible he was just trolling you to get a reaction out of you?? Just seems a tad ridiculous!

Perhaps... not sure why he'd bother though, given that he seemed pretty interested in me right up to him sharing his penchant for escorts...
