The day I joined a website looking for no strings sex | the Daily Mail

How could someone do that? Set up a website for adultery? To me if you are married or in a long term relationship then why look for a cheap thrill elsewhere. Was listening to the radio this morning and one of the points was 2 people met each other on a dating website, spoke for a few weeks, telling each other that they were married but it was a bad marriage, they decide to meet up, each holding a red rose in a pub. When they meet each other they find out they know each other - they are husband and wife. They are now in the process of getting a divorce. But why do that? Ok ive never been married and never been in a long term relationship (meaning years not months) so dont know what goes on as such. But why stay with someone if you are going to go out and cheat on your partner.

Many women tolerate infidelity for 'security reasons'. I didnt need to----- so I DIDN'T

Jen a lot of blokes in chat rooms do that anyway, quite a few of my mates have been with men outta chat rooms, and the men have been married, they couldnt care less and they get no strings sex, some men do it for variety, i know what you mean though, why do it when your married?....my mate Darren used to do it, even up till the week he was getting married he had a different woman every week, some people get a thrill from it

I'm guessing that half of those people who actually go through with the dates will be women, it's not only men who are like that these days.

Some people get bored of partners have years of the same old thing so go looking for something abit different elsewhere.

How very depressing. If those women are bored why don't they do something useful with their lives?

Why is it depressing? If they want a little extra or somethign different then go for it if they can live with it. Sometimes the partner knows but doesnt care.

Reading the article it all sounds very tacky and sordid.

BERNADETTE · 11-10-2007, 15:10

I can't imagine a lot of these people actually meeting up with the person they are in contact with. There always has and always will be people who think nothing of cheating on their husband/wife/partener. It is a shame they can't work a bit harder trying to save the relationship they are in, or if that can't be saved ending it instead of resorting to cheating.

WillowTheWhisp · 11-10-2007, 15:23

It sounds like some of them just want a bit of an additional thrill but don't consider their marriage to be a problem. It's such a shame.

I noticed that women join for free but men have to pay.

Not like that song then Shill .. here goes my memory again

but about a couple who have always longed to 'walk in the moonlight, walk in the rain, etc' and meet up this way, and realise both want the same thing ! Their relationship improves after that. Not quite the same .. but similar ..

Do you have a link for registering with the site?

That sounds like the piña colada song.

Eeew thanks Willow, think you are correct .. same the meeting between the husband and wife hasn't done the same, and gave them an opportunity to discuss things

I wonder how many people are now looking at dating websites looking for their partners after reading that?
