OK Stay Away From This Place!!!
If i have just read all these reviews before!

Here is the story...

1. When you join for free you will realize that you cannot practically do anything.
2. Then, you will get some e-mails of chicks that "viewed" your profile and sent you "flirts". Of course these chicks are super hot, but are sex freaks, so you convince yourself they are real.
3. You buy a "Silver Account"
4. You realize you actually cannot contact "Standard Members" with this form of account.
5. You buy a "Contact Standard Members" because all these sex beasts are waiting for you.
6. All of your views and flirts drop
7. You start hanging out on the web-site trying to figure out where did all the hot chicks go?
8. Something starts to "smell". All the "hot" profiles have images that are either of a size of a avatar 150x150 or normal 800x600 and above... but why?
9. You start to get hit by new hot members. But you can't contact them, because only VIP-gold members can contact new members.
10. You bump into the same "new" account but with pics of a different, but still very hot chick.

Now it really "smells"

11. You start looking up reviews on Adult Friend Finder and realize what a mistake you have done.

12. TRY TO GET YOURSELF OUT OF SHIT!

Go to your account settings and turn of the auto renew membership, yes, they have took the freedom to chose it for you.
Change your credit card info with some imaginary shit.
Delete your account
AND PRAY THEY DON'T CHARGE YOU AGAIN.
!!!IMPORTANT!!!
THE SAFEST THING IS TO TRANSFER YOUR MONEY INTO A DIFFERENT ACCOUNT!!!

13. Hope for the best, spread the word so others know in what they are getting into, and DON'T DO THE STUPID MISTAKE AGAIN!

All we know is that we connected with a couple using the handle "bigdaddynsugar"......sugar wound up having a major case of herpes that she tried to hide. Bigdaddy was a rude oaf that couldn't find his way out of an open door. After that, we stopped looking on AFF. Plenty of other options in this town.

Adult friend Finder......the BIGGEST SCAM on the Internet in adult dating sites.

I cant believe it has not been shut down ALL the emails from ladies are from CLICK girls, they are NOT real. They send mails and entic you to join other partner sites, which then extract a small fee, for this service....
What service....IT is FRAUD FRAUD FRAUD an illusion, you believe it for a few months and then i comes clear...then you stop and they keep billing your act, and its not cheap at nearly £18 month..

I am an attractive wealthy funny guy, and can get go out and eet ladies no problem, on here there is no chance that you will meet anyone.

I have nothing else to say.

YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED stay AWAY from AFF and tell anyone else , write more reviews....tell people and SHUT them down , they must have amassed millions from this SCAM.

Anyone got any other good reviews of UK dating sites as they can be fun.

What a scam! I paid 17.99 and I can’t even chose my gender or have a picture of my face on my profile. I was stupid to rush in to buying the silver membership. I am a bi girl and I have been looking for a girlfriend for a while now on many sites but there is no one in my area. So when I saw that there was many bi girl on this site and in my area I jumped a bought the 17.99 membership. I could not even get a half-decent profile. They kept dining my pictures saying they were violating their terms. The pictures were of my face and nothing else, I could see if my face was hideous but I am very attractive. I wrote customer service and they said I was a man and I must up load a picture of a man or pay $9 to have my gender changed on my profile. I am asking for a refund. After reading all these reviews, I realize that all these women in my are probably fake anyway. To make matters worse I spent several hours filling out the profile and answering all kinds of questions, what a waist of time.

*THIS REVIEW IS FOR ADULT FRIEND FINDER*

I wanted to write a brief review of a site not listed on eDateReview. (And I appreciate the opportunity to do so).

There is an adult dating site called Adult Friend Finder. The most FRAUDULENT, FAKE PROFILE, COMMERCIAL DRIVEN SITE ON THE NET. The owner's will email you fake emails in order to have you continue your subscription. The pics are a LOT of models-fake profiles.

The internet is a great way for mature, consenting adults of like interests to talk/meet. Everything BAD about the internet is available on this site. I can only warn EVERYONE to save your money and look elsewhere. If able, I would show NO stars.

I have been on AFF for for a couple of months now and have met 4 guys already. The opportunity to meet guys is incredible on this site for women. I am not e-mailing them, they are all e-mailing me and I have become overwhelmed by the amount of e-mails I am receiving.
Out of the four men I slept with three of them right away. On the fourth date I decided that I was going to meet the person for lunch first. This guy was enough of a gentlemen to agree to this. Although I found him very nice and funny I was not attracted to him sexually. He did try to seduce me and get me back to my apartment but I declined. At the end of the date he told me how wonderful I was and asked me for a kiss. I gave him a kiss and found out he was a really good kisser. He mentioned going out again and told me to call him later if I changed my mind about him comming over. I sent him an e-mail thanking him for dinner and saying what a good kisser he was. I wasnt even interested in him but was trying to be nice. Mind you this was a guy that I rejected 4 times before I said yes. Why would a guy say all that wonderful stuff about me and then not return my e-mails or call me.

Of the four dates I was only attracted to one guy who was the most incredible sexual experience I ever had. That guy never returned my calls or e-mails. I know that I am preety and cool. Ive been told I have a great personality and I am excellent in bed. Needless to say don't get involved with AFF unless you have really thick skin. I can't seem to get past a one night stand on this site. I'm not looking for a LTR. Im just looking for sex, but it would be nice to find one fuck budy instead of sleeping around with tons of guys. After leaving the first guy I told him that I was never going to see him again because I know how guys work and he said your not going to get rid of me that easily. Now why would he say that and then just ignore me. He has contacted me twice since then to get together and I have returned his calls but he does not return mine.

The other two dates were with much younger men and they were a disaster. Way too immature. The 24 year old guy I was with was very scary. He was too rough and not very nice. He seemed so sweet and innocent on the phone and was very nice. Lets just say I have learned my lesson. I will not be letting strange guys into my home until I meet them first. When I joined the site I had just gotten out of a year and a half relationship where the sex was bad. I was feeling daring and was extremely sexually deprived. Although I love sex and could have sex all day and night I am not willing to keep having one night stands and being treated like crap by guys. Not to mention getting some horrible disease from them.

Some guys harass me over and over again with there phone numbers when I am not interested in them. I will just have to block them.
They get really annoyed if you dont return there e-mails because youve bruised there ego. What about when they use you for one night and disapear. They dont seem to care about that. Although it is flattering to have all these guys interested in me on the site it is getting old. I know most of them are not interested in me as a person but just as someone to fuck and stick there dick in my pussy.
I understood that when I joined the site but that doesnt mean I dont want to get past the first date. Now I am scared to go on any more dates because I dont want to be rejected. This site is purely for sex . If your expecting friendships out of it or someone who really wants to know you as a person then go elsewhere. I suppose you could get more out of it but you just have to have thick skin and weed out those guys sending you the shots of there dicks and the ones that are not willing to at least take you out somewhere first.
At first I was so horny and lonely I didnt care. In the end you are just left feeling empty by a bad experience. It is short time happiness which can lead to psychological scars. Unfortunately I happen to be an extremely sensitive person.

I will stay on AFF but will weed out alot of guys and am not willing to just hook up with anyone. I have found a few decent ones that are interested in me. I have been spending way too much time on the internet trying to answer e-mails and deal with all these men.

I am interested in other womens experiences and if they have a bunch of one night stands as well.

"Someone said it right there is the psychology aspect to take into consideration with men and women."

In writing a review for a website you have to judge by it's effectiveness and what a user can expect to get out of it.

AFF and the format it runs on is just like Socialism, it looks good on paper and works well for those who are running the system, but it causes great disstress for most of those people who use the system. It's the psychological aspect of human sexality that leads to the fact that AFF is uselessness to most people who are looking for sex or to meet.

I think that most of the users on that site get worn down by trying to attract other members. Men get worn out by sending emails and getting no replys, trying to prefect their profile and photos with little effect, spam email from fake profiles, and the homosexuals who are always pestering straight male users. I can also see that women get worn down by one liner emails and c0ckshots from men. Also, women seem to get confused when they recieve 100 emails from men.

Despite the women's rights movement and sexual liberation, most women detest the idea men only wanting to have sex with them. Sure, women get horny as much as men do, but they're also turned off by the idea that a man wants nothing to do with who they are, that the man only wants to have sex with her and that's it.

As with Socialism, there are those few who will enjoy and benefit from AFF's system. Those type of people are the ones who will enjoy the networking capabilites of that AFF offers. Women can stand to benefit from AFF since there are far more men than women on that site. There are guys on AFF who do want to be involved with one woman in and out of the bedroom. I don't think very many of the women on AFF are very good at weeding these type of guys out for themselves.

In the time I spent on the site, I saw that most of the women are in their late 30's or older. Many of the women I saw are deeply rooted into the website and it's appearent that they are just trying to make friends and enhance their social life. This is an example of the type of people who benefit from AFF.

So, how does the site work for someone who's in their late 20's to early 30's?

I spent quite a while on AFF trying to figure out how to work that system for myself. At one point, I was on in the Top 50 most viewed male members. I had met some women on that site. I felt that I had done a pretty good job of mastering it. Still, I was having trouble getting exactly what I wanted and that was a half-way attractive woman to date and have a FWB relationship. The fact remained that there's a serious shortage of women on AFF, and many of the women who are on AFF just passing time and rooting themselves into the system.

So, I took the skills I learned from AFF and good pictures I had on my AFF profile and used them on Craigslist. It's quite hard to describe the difference, but after trying Craigslist I had no desire or need to ever again use AFF. Within a month, I had met more women (face to face) on Craigslist than I did in my years on AFF. Soon after that I had found a FWB on Craigslist, something I just couldn't find on AFF.

No matter how much work I put into AFF, I could net replicate the success I found on Craigslist. Craigslist is a better system to use for people who are looking to meet face to face.

Wow, an actual review from a woman! This is strange, I know.

I actually enjoyed reading through all the reviews which wanted to rate the women as well as the site, itself.

As a woman, yes it is about "adult" networking. As a woman, yes there is a huge attraction to the fact that we can join a site which is not as limiting to our sexual freedoms and we can freely express that. When a large portion of our female populations is no longer so marriage centric. Women like me can just look for like minded men to enjoy spending time with and not have have that cloud of marriage hanging over them.

NEWS FLASH!!! Marriage is different then an "LTR", gentlemen!! Just because a woman is advertising that she is not interested in one night stands, that does not mean that she is expecting the white picket fence either. Get over yourselves, is what I have to say.

I have met someone on AFF. I have been dating him for about 9 months. Is he someone I will introduce to my family, probably not. My friends, yes I would. Is it the perfect "friends with benefits" situation out there? YES IT IS! I was not a woman looking for an NSA encounter. I specifically said that in my profile.

I think the reason you have mostly men here complaining about website is that I think AFF is at fault with its deceptive advertising, "Join for free and get laid tonight!"

I do blame AFF for that. Because of that men will log on, create a profile with their laundry list of wants (including fake breasts) or a declaration of desperation (I have not been laid in 6 months), post their dick pick and expect the women to flock to them.

The Fake profiles, yes, they are there and they are very easy to spot. But I think that the desperation feeds the fraud. This, too, I place blame on the way AFF sells the website out there to the masses.

Now as for having to join to get the full benefits of the site? HMMMMMMMM... YES, I think you should pay a company for the services they are selling. Don't you think so? I mean, you expect to join and get full access. In my opinion all the free loading men who are standard members should go away. I see them daily. I have personally bounced back and forth between Gold, Silver and Standard. Currently, I am a standard member since I have met someone. The blogging community there is an excellent place to be and I have met some valued friends through the blogs. Guess what? They invest a little time.

So, can really blame and criticize a company for charging their customer to use their services. I am surprised they give out popularity privileges, which I benefit from. I can look, email, chat, blog and pretty much anything I want to, but the pics I can view are smaller and I do not have access to view all the pictures.

How can you expect not to pay?

I also have never had a problem with their billing, at all. I have turned my auto renew off and never get billed. Restart my account and get billed. Just the way it is suppose to work.

Just like you guys issues with the fakes we, women, have out own:

The 50 year old men think that they can pass themselves off as 40 year old men, throw their dick pic up there and the horny college age girls will be throwing themselves at them.

I can walk into any bar and get laid. I have no problem with that, thank you! But I do not feel comfortable walking into a bar and saying, "hey, I am bi and love to swing a little. How about you?"

This allows for a little bit of a screening process which I think is very valuable. I mean gentlemen, you are wanting to put your body part inside of me. Right? Do you expect us ladies to get one email and fall on our backs for you?

As for the one guy who said that he could go to a strip club and get a blow job in the back room. Well, good for you and continue to do that because your level of desperation is not the kind of man I am attracted to in the first place.

Again, LTR does not equal marriage. LTR does not equal monogamy. My relationship, we each still date, but we also know that there is a primary partner that we can come home to on almost any given night to avoid that temptation of random sex. And we make for perfect play partners in the lifestyle.

So, this is no, i do not understand all the bashing I have seen here. I do not understand how you can underrate the site and more importantly many of the women on the site. Yes, it is a very diverse environment on both of the gender sides (ummm, actually there are several genders to chose from ;-)).

It is as diverse as the real world. So, no. I can not buy half of the negative reviews here, sorry.

You get out of AFF what you are willing to put into it. The quality is there for you to have if you are willing to exhibit quality, yourself. You get an email you do not like, simply ignore it, block the user and move on.

I think the reviews here and elsewhere are unfair. I almost closed my account and ran from the site when I saw all the dick pics and "wanna fuck tonight" emails. But I have given it sometime and have been very happy with the friend I have met and the wonderful platonic friends I have met.

Do not judge by the disgruntled men on here and elsewhere about AFF.

Someone said it right there is the psychology aspect to take into consideration with men and women. And there are many women out searching for an avenue to express their sexuality but still have standards and expectations in place.

It is an adult playland. Enjoy yourself!

STICK TO CRAIGSLIST IF YOU'RE LOOKING FOR A HOOK-UP.

Last month I paid for a membership on Adultfriendfinder but I met nobody. In that same time I met 3 women from Craigslist. Craigslist is free for anyone to use. Adultfriendfinder requires at least $20/month if you want to productivly use their site. Why pay Adultfriendfinder for no results, when you can find someone on Craigslist.

What's the problem here, why can't I met someone on an adult site? Because Adultfriendfinder is mySpace for adults. Most of the women on Adultfriendfinder are using the site for social networking. Or they're having fun reading the emails and soaking up the attention.

What I don't get is a few of the women I've talked to on AFF complain that the right guy isn't on that site. Quite a few of the women on there are looking for a relationship. The reason they came to Adultfriendfinder is because of the quanity of men on that site. If they want something serious then maybe they should join POF and not a sex site.

Here's my take on why I've met casual hook-ups on Craigslist.

I have often thought that women become horny and at that time are willing to take a chance on meeting a stranger. I discussed this theroy with one of the girls I hooked up with, She told me that she hadn't been with a guy in a couple of months and she was excited by taking the risk and doing something taboo (Sex with strangers). What I did to confirm this is put an ad up on Craigslist at a time when single people would be alone with nothing to do. The results paid off as I recieved 6 different emails from arroused women.

This window that women have doesn't stay open for too long and this is where craigslist has an advantage over these dating sites. With Craigslist you can contact someone right away via email for free. Craigslist don't require you to have an account, wait 2 hours for a profile approval, and then pay $20-30 to send a message. A woman is no longer horny by the time she goes through the gears of motion required by a dating site.

You have to remember these women feel they're taking a risk. They're only going to meet someone who'll safely fulfill their needs. It's a good idea to find out what women are attracted to and give them a good reason to meet you. These women aren't here to settle on the best offer they can find, you'll have to coax them out of their shell.
