OMG! Okay, so somewhere I saw someone mention Plentyoffish.com so I thought I would check it out. No big deal for a few days, but today I have a message from this guy who "likes my profile" yada yada yada. Wants to know if I want to chat. So I go and check his profile and it turns out he is married and looking for a little booty call on the side. I have not quite penned my response to him yet, but it will have something in there about not needing another cheating husband on my hands. Having my own was plenty, I don't need some other gal's issue. I know I live in a sheltered little world, but I never really thought people did that kind of stuff. You can imagine my shock and surprise when I found the page where you can just look for peole to have sex with. I think my cheeks are still burning from that surprise.

This girl needs to take a break from anything that may put me in touch with cheaters and pictures of their maked bodies on my computer screen.

Still a prude in Colorado, Jennifer

Jennifer, I think the deal is that these are people. There will always be people looking to cheat, and technology makes it easier for them to find people willing to let them.

Same thing with the sex only thing- there will always be people looking for just sex, and technology makes it easier for them to find the same kind of person.

Personally, I'd much rather they were upfront and honest about their intentions- not only can they skip all of the brouhaha trying to get sex (such as dating) but I can also save my time, since sex isn't what I'm looking for. It is a win-win. If I were looking for a just-sex, casual, no frills type of arrangement, I'd certainly know where to look!

Moody, happy some people are still honest

Hi Jennifer,
On POF you can put that you're not looking for anyone married or looking for an intimate encounter....still may not ward off all the crazies but it helps! :)

That is a turn off - but somehow it doesn't surprise me because after all, it is OLD. I think you should just ignore it - DELETE - NEXT!!
