    Default Craigslist casual encounters?

    Has anyone here used craigslist casual encounters? If so how did it workout for you? I have been thinking about placing an ad so I am trying to figure out if it is worth trying. Any tips on placing an ad are welcome. I am interested in hearing from females who have placed ads in casual encounters or looked for men on there, and also any guys who have placed ads looking for women on there.

    I did once place an ad but decided against it. I was afraid that we would meet and either no chemistry or creepy or something else. I did place an ad for dating and met a nice guy but he went back to his girlfriend. I know a few who did hookup with men they found on Craigslist to interesting results. Some started dating the guy, others never saw him again.

    What did the women look like? I am trying to get an idea of what type of women use casual encounters.

    All types. Some were pretty but I'll be honest, most weren't pretty.

    I'll bite. I went on briefly during a nympho phase. I'd get like 400 responses per ad, only a handful of which were up to my standards and could follow directions. Good luck.

    I think craigslist is gone to the creepers. Tinder seems to have done a good job of replacing it.

    If you are looking to hook up tinder is probably your better bet.
    If you are looking for women, "Wing Ma'am" is lesbian/ladies only version of tinder/grindr that verifies the person is a lady.

    Now that's thinking green!

    I have thought about tinder but I don't have a Facebook account, and I read somewhere that you need 50 Facebook friends for tinder

    This post is sad, just go pay for a good time or pay to be on a hook up site.

    Have not used it seriously ever, though a friend and I did once place a joke w4m ad because we wanted to see what kind of weirdos we'd get.... the answer was some VERY weird weirdos. We got like 20 responses to the ad within 2 hours, mostly blatant disgusting stuff.

    You're not gonna get a high caliber of attractiveness on there, that's for sure. If you're okay with that, go for it... Otherwise get on a dating site or hookup site, or pay an escort.

    I am going to try a hookup site instead.

    I love trolling Craigslist casual encounters. Once I put up an ad just stating "send me dick pics", nothing else and got many responses. I once put up an ad for a foot fetishist to see if my ex would respond (I didn't post my name, location or photo)but he didn't.

    They banned me, lol. See link for some of the reasons they ban people for. At one point I edited my profile to indicate that I was not looking for anything serious, just looking to hook up, that might be what got me banned.

    I also tried OKCupid but too many unattracive women on there in my area.

    And you were considering craigslist? Haha.

    My roommate used OKCupid for that stuff. She brought home a couple decent looking guys, but they were definitely fucking weird in other aspects (one was near serial killer level of creepy).

    Not to say you won't find something good. I think there's a few girls on here who met their SOs online, so decent-looking/personality people do get on those sites sometimes.

    That sucks someone can't be honest. Hence why there's a lot of fakes on these sites. Anyway. What about www.onlinebootycall.com
    I've seen this commercial play on tv late at night.

    When I was looking for just a hook up, Adult friend finder & Ashley Madison are good places. AFF has a lot of freaks & fake profiles but I met 3 women from there & I had very long physical relationships with them, year long. The other place you can look would be your local swinger websites. I haven't looked for just a hook up in over a year but there are women that are looking for the same thing.

    They banned me too. My first profile was deleted because too many baby daddies (guys with multiple out of wedlock babies by different women)complained I refused to date them. My second profile was also deleted and the freak mod banned me from the forums because of my "views". That site is a cesspool and I did meet a decent (but no chemistry)man but way too many losers. Not that I do casual hookups, but the men who contacted me for that were creepy and unattractive. If I was going to do casual it would definitely be hot people.

    Call me a snob, but Craigslist seems like a good way to get an STI or someone crazy. I also think some women use it for a laugh or validation (I would too). The attractiveness thing is I'm sure an issue as well.

    Online is strange, but fun. I still think meeting people in person and building a connection is so much better. Main thing I see from women, and men when I have checked out the competition, is people present this ideal of what they think they want. Have met a couple of women who claimed to want something casual and fun but got clingy and serious way too fast. I don't see it as dishonest, or even confused, it is like people are someone else online without intentionally doing it.

    It does attract some psychos, honestly, part of the fun was telling people I didn't pick why I didn't.

    Craigslist is pretty fun for a laugh to be honest. Honestly, most aren't there for a relationship so it's funny. I've done online too and it can be the same but at least online dating is somewhat more serious. I did online dating (I mentioned it in many threads)and for me it didn't work. I think it was because I am 43 so men who are desirable are trying for younger women (even if they can't attract them), or we just didn't connect. Plus, I am only interested in a certain type of man (no hairy obese men, no men with kids)and many don't do online. Yes I got a lot of responses, hundreds in fact but not a lot of matches. I met a guy offline exactly what I want but he is dealing with issues. Like you, I prefer meeting people offline, especially since I prefer friends first and with online it's hard to do this.

    Oh and I did meet my husband on plentyoffish! lol! I had to reallllllllly search for him...He lived 3 hours away at the time. Most people on there are just looking to hook up though. My husband called it "plentyofwhales" before he met me, due the high number of unattractive females. He said he met a girl from there once before we met who looked cute in her pictures, and was morbidly obese in person.

    I met a guy on POF who was decent but that was after dealing with a bunch of fat or unattractive men. Even so, we didn't feel a connection. I was honest about what I looked like, even taking recent photos of myself and he was honest, just no match.
