Hook up sites

176 replies

NoMoreMrRight · 09/06/2015 17:41

So, been single for three years following my divorce. A very high sex drive, and I've been online dating (POF, Match etc) for about two years. Completely fed up of the bad manners, fickleness even when trying to find a FB.... I read earlier another thread about someone looking for NSA sex and some posters recommended going down the hook up site route as it apparently there's a lot less messing around etc..

I have tried POF etc in the past searching for 'only sex/something casual' profiles but although I got a FB for a couple of months out of it, it was still the same BS as when trying to find a relationship.

So, any recs for hook up/casual sex sites? Ideally one where I can just post some headless full body length pictures and then privately message the ones showing my face to any potentials (I live in a small village and I rather be discrete about all this).

Thanks in advance

avoir I think Tinder is more of a swipe yes or no, so in other words a more direct response. But Kik is used by a lot of sites for people to communicate on their mobiles without giving out their actual number. So I'd probably say Tinder is better in so far as a hook-up but Kik can be used for chatting etc... With Kik you'd have to search for a person's username before you could talk to them. The whole thing is a mine field!

avoiretre · 14/06/2015 20:17

Thanks for that. I knew that KiK is good as a fairly anonymous way of communicating, without giving the other party your email or phone number, it's encrypted as well, so your chats are more private than WhatsApp/Viber etc. What I didn't know is that you can search for people looking for the same as you on KiK using kikfriender.com/ I'm not sure if it's possible to do this on the app itself. It's certainly a minefield finding sites/apps that work and have enough (fairly) local people on!

Is kik Easy to find people?

I don't neccessary want to meet up with people but when I'm bored at work or home it would be good to have people to talk to

BeenWondering · 14/06/2015 20:59

Lozfc In your case you could have an innocuous conversation with anyone without having to give out your phone number / email or whatever. It is easy to find someone to talk to, but to find a specific person you'd need to know their username. Or indeed if you were searching for a specific sort of thing you were interested in you'd need to search for that then see the 'available' users interested in the same thing. If you post your KiK username I'll certainly add you.

avoir As it's all anonymous I say go forth explore and come back to tell us! Especially as that's what I've been doing so far. The app itself doesn't allow for much exploration outside certain boundaries but add-ons do help. Even if the person isn't necessarily local, there's no harm in striking up a conversation.

Is it a dating site or just chat?

Don't think my bf would be happy if it was a dating one lol

BeenWondering · 14/06/2015 21:12

Kik is just chat. It is basically like 'Whats app' but without anyone seeing your number. If people choose to date or whatever then so be it, but the premise is basically just a chat.

Lozfc · 14/06/2015 21:13

It sounds cool, I'll check it out

Just wondered for all those who dipped their toe in..how did it go? x

Pandoraslist.com seems like a decent UK oriented free site for hookups. Looks like the old craigslist

I replied to this back in June 2015 about having been successful on POF The Naughty Pond...the other naughty fish and I married in July last year Grin

Ohhh, it's SOOO much easier for you ladies.. I posted this: -

www.mumsnet.com/Talk/relationships/3507884-How-do-I-find-someone

A couple of weeks ago.

I've been single for almost three years, without any sort of relationship, and am on most of the dating websites, including Fab.

I would be very happy with even a ons, (prefer a fb /fwb) but as has been pointed out, there are a lot of single guys out there, and you ladies are spoiled for choice!

Try pure It's a hook-up only site. You post the fact that you are looking, someone has to "choose" you, then you have an hour to arrange something. Your initial post also only lasts an hour.

OP, think about joining the dating thread. Lots of advice and hand holding from very friendly, non-judgemental people!

I live in Kilsyth near Glasgow Scotland and 12 years ago I lost my wife to PND..after a long time of grieving and raising my kids I decided it was time for life to live on...I am a fit guy who looks,after himself but found it difficult having relationships due to having kids . I tried the site fabswingers too but not being a swinger I found it a bit cliique. Also I'm not wanting to sleep with the world. Sex is important to me though and you do miss it as I have a high sex drive..would be nice to meet someone and share each other's bodies though and take it from there.

@avoiretre

Some of the profiles on there are so shockingly arrogant and up their own backside

I think in a profile not many people are going to say 'oh I think I'm a bit crap.' You have to 'sell yourself' and expressing confidence in a product sells better (I'm not saying men and women are a product- but people are trying to make themselves sound impressive on there.)

'Pantene- because it's a bit crap and that's all your worth' wouldn't sell, would it? Smile

@rambunctious I think most clubs wouldn't mind if you covered up. Some clubs/events have a dress code and they like if people make an effort, so maybe jeans that don't look too everyday if you're going to wear jeans, or a slightly dressy dress.
