Adult dating sites are always contentious. Some people refuse to use them, some people use them exclusively. They cause debate on morality and a range of other issues.
To be honest, I just don't care for these debates. They reek of interfering in other people's business. Rather, in recognising that people do get use out of adult dating sites, I've researched a few of them and can now offer some advice regarding their pitfalls, to make them safer for you if you are heading down this route.
There are many dangers with adult dating sites. The dangers these sites pose to men tend to be different to women, so we have split these up and summarised them below:
The dangers a woman faces from these sites are dangers to her "person". These sites tend primarily to emphasise open sexuality in dating and therefore there is an expectation that a date will quickly escalate into a sexual encounter. Obviously problems can quickly arise where the expectations of a date differ between the participants.
So the best advice I can give to women is to not put yourself in a position of physical vulnerability until you are completely sure that is where you want to be with a person. Make sure your first date is in a public place, if for no other reason than to ensure the person matches the photo and the other details on the dating site.
Make sure when you meet a potential in the real world you use your usual dating precautions. That is, only escalate when you feel safe and that it is ok. Trust your instincts. Don't throw caution to the wind just because you met this person at an adult site.
The biggest threats to men on these sites are not dangers to their person, rather dangers to their wallet. Adult dating sites are packed with scammers and unfortunately, most (but not all) of them are pretty women. They are exactly the type of women you wanted to meet on the site.
An Adult Dating scam includes the 1900 phone number scams. You can be contacted by someone who wants you to call them on a 1900 number. These phone calls cost you a packet, the scammer actually profits from the phone call itself. They will never meet you, all they want is for you to call so they make some money.
Other scammers want you to come to their site to see their pics or to see their webcam. Its the same deal. These girls want your money, not to meet you. Their websites will always be pay per view or pay to signup, so you pay, and they get paid.
And then there are scammers who are looking for a way out of their country. Yes, these scammers can be pretty persuasive, but if you are looking for an international introduction, an adult dating site is not the right place to be. Go to a profession international introductions site where the professionals who run it will protect you to some degree from being scammed.
As a man, the best thing you can do to avoid these traps is simply remember why you joined the site. You want to meet some potential partners for some adult real life fun. As soon as a potential partner leads you away from this, move onto the next person. There are millions of profiles at these sites after all.
If you can avoid the pitfalls lurking around adult dating sites, the rewards can be great. Its the same for both men and women in this regard. You can end up getting exactly what you want, when you want it. On top of this, you can have it with the person you intended.
So be careful what you wish for! ;-) - 15615
