Two-Timing.com FriendSearch, the Internet's Favorite Friendship and Love Personals.

http://www.friendsearch.com/?partner=89115

March 24, registered and paid initial membership fee of $34.76

I received a welcome message from them advising me of my login handle and prompting me to upgrade to platinum level as soon as possible.

Every message they send out propmts you to upgrade – not to gold, but to platinum level.

They basically tell you that a regular membership ain't worth shit because you can't go anywhere with one.

A couple of weeks later. my credit card bill shows a transaction for March 24 described as SOHQCOM STOCKHOLM. So, they operate from Stockholm, Sweden

Every week they send the following message:

"As of this week, your Two-Timing.com FriendSearch profile has received a total of 124 views, which is above average on our profile activity statistics. In general, a high percentage of these accesses would have resulted in actual contacts being initiated, or even first dates for you.

However, most, if not all of these girls FAILED to contact you as you are not a Platinum member. The potential dates you have missed out on could be as high as 124! Could any of these girls have turned out to be your dream partner? You could only be left wondering...

Below are some of our cute and active girls that could have tried to contact you:"

You are shown thumbnail size pictures of 15 women. When you double click on any of the pictures, you are taken to a membership upgrade screen.

I don't plan to spend more than I already have on these guys.

I was wondering if anyone tried such free sites as "C-list" (the women looking for men or casual encounters sections -- not the paid provider section), Bookofmatches.com, or Plentyoffish.com, and what were their experiences?

Looking to hear what other members experienced and looking for clues/hints to these sites. In my experience, "C-list" has been hit or miss, met a few women I have dated, (many mental cases), but lately the selection has been poor -- most of the black women (I am black) are looking for "European Males" or sugar daddies. The other sites I am not sure if they are active as there are few members and no responses.

Does anyone else have any good free sites I can visit? I am averse to pay $$ just to be able to TRY to meet someone.

P.S. - Hopefully, I am not violating one of the rules, but why is the word "C-list" blocked when typed?

I don't plan to spend more than I already have on these guys.Sounds like Adult Friend Finder. Sad thing is, once you go gold or platinum, you find that most of the ads are expired or fake and are there just to pad their member list. The only real people there are either real swingers who are either ugly as sin or freakier than a San Fran Friday night, or are professionals, escorts or dancers.

This is a great link guys. I am a very very busy guy, which is one of the reasons I started this hobby. I've only had a membership for one month at a time becasue I usually flood the market with brief e-mails and then wait to see what happens. In the past two years, I have have hooked up with about 20 broads via the internet and slept with almost half of them. Please let me point out that all of them were psycho. My friends and I have all agreed that there is usually a reason why a woman is resorting to shopping on the internet for some action...

Bottom line: If you mass mail a number of women at a time and have some good social skills, you can be very successful. However, mongering is often cheaper than trying to "date" 3 or 4 broads at a time.

Good luck fellas - Coxslinger

When you think about it, most decent looking women can have "casual encounters" simply by going to a bar or club and going home with a man. The C-list "women seeking men" section I have not tried though (mainly b/c I like to see their pics first off).

I recommend match.com, though. My batting average was high there.

Hope this helps.

Sorry I am just getting around to this topic but Coxslinger is right, mongering is much cheaper and less emotionally taxing than dating 3 or more ladies at one time. I was very successful on BlackPlanet and Adult Friend Finder as I made each lady feel as if she was the only person in the world.

I would give them flowers and candy plus wine and dine them. This can be very expensive plus few are emotionally unstable and can quickly become attached. If you are cold hearted and don't mind breaking hearts then one can get plenty of pussy.

Word of caution, these women can be unstable and I had one that contacted my employer and attemptied to get me fired telling them all sorts of lies. I did not get fired but it was embarassing having my manager aware of my personal life. Be safe and happy hunting out there.

Golden Eye must un-willingly admitt that I was victim of that website. Paid almost a Franklin when it was all said and done.

My membership yielded NO results, and needless to say that when someone responded it was a gay guy. I have found out that an infinite number of their pics are bogus and nothing fruitfull ever came out of that website.

Other than that just wanted to give my $ .02 and hope that no one else out there gets burned like I have.

Oh, I did have one potential mate but she wanted another guy to participate. It was her "b/f " but I was not interested. You never know with these people, the guy may have been gay.

I hate to sound cynical, but I think most of these on-line agencies pad their books to keep guys coming back. I belonged to Adult Friend Finder for about two years, one full year as a silver member! I only met one woman the whole time, and we did have some kinky sex, but I have to admit I was REALLY horny, and I just couldn't face it a second time. Let me just say she wasn't a 10, and she wasn't the slimmest woman on the planet.

I also "belong" to a few other services (ALT, Senior Friend Finder, Amateur Match, Adult Love Line, Sexy ads, sexsearch, wow! did I say "a few?"), but only as a free member. I'm leery of joining any of them after my AFF fiasco.

I would like to know from you guys which agencies have the highest match-up success rates in your experience. Also, I have yet to try Craig's list, but would welcome reviews, too.

Right now, all I'm doing is the mongering thing, where I've had mucho success (who hasn't?), but which can also be dangerous.

Thanks,

I must admitt that from my personal point of view, mongering has way more benefits. Only drawback to mongering if any is driving around aimlessly.

The 'danger' in Mongering cannot really be taken into considereration since that is part of what makes it fun. You can almost compare it to going to a Texas Rangers Baseball Game and sitting on the foul ball lines. It is the chances of that ball being hit to you that makes the game more fun. For that reason, fans take their 'Rawlings glove ! But their is also the danger of getting hit by a screaming foul ball.

It is that gene <danger> that makes the experience all of that much orgasmic and climatic !!!

The drawback to ads is their legitimacy for one but in addition the fees that need to be taken into consideration.

I'm just wondering if anyone else has tried bars for picking up pros ? In most USA cities, explicitly pro bars are long gone (I remember when you could find them but the police has long since crushed them, mostly), but you can still find semi-pros in bars. This is very inefficient, but works. See my post elsewhere for how (I think it was in the section on advice for newbies). Briefly, you chat them up, judge how they might respond, then make clear your intentions (P4P string-free sex). Being middle-aged has some advantages, because a nice-looking young woman who accepts an invitation for a drink is already showing signs of accepting the deal, else she's ditzy (and I don't accept them if they can't handle their business). I find this a highly satisfying way to get a good deal, much cheaper than EROS but similar quality. I only need 1 girlfriend at a time, but they don't last. The break-up takes many forms. A couple times the girl decided to shack up with a younger guy and cut me off. Fine, I'm not trying to compete with guys 25 years younger. Sometimes their cell phone stops working. That ends it, because my policy is that if I can't call them in advance I don't rendezvous. A few girls simply leave town. The rest of the time I mostly get bored and quit. Right now I'm seeing this girl who looks like Halle Berry. Fantastic sessions and she likes it too. But I know it will end eventually, no matter how beautiful or how much they like sex it always fizzles eventually, that's the nature of P4P no strings. Just wondering if anyone else tried this. There's a brutal honesty to the bar scene. You know and can see what you're getting into.

Was a free member of Amatuer Match for some time and keep getting these great messages which I could not respond to, from all kinds of women that listed my state as their address. Finally joined for 2 months, replied to some of the messages and never got a response. I then did an advanced search using some of the city names the messages I got came from and could not find any of the profiles. Wrote them a message accusing them of having shill members to entice guys like us to join. Got a bullshit response which I challenged. The reply said my request was being sent to their IT team for review and response and that is the last I heard from them. My advice is to stay away from them. At least you got laid from your AFF membership.

Well, there is a site, Plentyoffish.com that is a totally free site, but the traffic there is kind of low. However, it is totally free so at least you will not lose any money checking it out. I heard that Match.com and Yahoo Personals are facing a class-action lawsuit for some of the tactics mentioned (fake profiles, charging people after quitting the site, fake "winks" and messages from people supossedly interested in you, hitting your e-mail with spam and spyware after leavng a service).

Any body paid their fee and had an experience to report?
