...online sites that promote promiscuity and cheating?

I was just on my account page, and i noticed 1 of the dating ads to the right, it was headed "Married but neglected" and under it, it had words to the effect of "find here wat u dont get at home"

I personally think its a sad day when site owners r making money outta ppls marital misfortunes.

Is it made too easy for ppl to have their cake AND eat it?

Meh, I do not even get the ads. But either way I could care less. If a person is going to cheat it is NOT going to be because of some ad. Beside if they are reading it on here and they are really that interested, they would not be on this site in the first place.

Yes, which makes it even more tempting imo.

Ive personally never been affected by anything like that, cos ive never been married, BUT, i do have a friend, who met someone online, after pairing up with him for over 10months.

She met him, and they slept together (they had been in an online relationship (10mnths) and she was in love....BUT..in the morning, she recieved a call to HER mobile, from......his fiance! My friend was devasted, she knew nothing about a fiance, she had been told he was single.

Its one thing for cheaters to find fresh meat online, but to actually have a site dedicated to ppl who r bored in their marriage is low imo.

These ads pop up everywhere, and i do think they encourage infidelity. A site like this can be percieved as being for friends or dating, which is fine, but an actual site being called "Neglected and married"?

Some ppl may be goin thru a rough patch and stumble across these places. Possibly, the rough patch could be smoothed, but by dealing with it this way, u could end up losing wat u have.

It promotes infidelity and promiscuity imo.

LOL! Yanno, i think each to their own with chit like that, its not dignified, but then again, i know i aint no angel lol!

The only reason i mentioned the married 1 is cos it involves being deceitful to a person u r meant to love. So its not just about 1 person fulfilling their own needs, its about giving ppl the scope to have their cake and eat it.

Everybody is there own person. If they are going to cheat it is not going to be because of some site. I personally would just rather see them all together in one spot then coming on here and trying to pick me up.

I can understand wat ur saying...but im thinkin...if ur gonna cheat, its way easier to initiate something online than it is in RL. Its easier to hide. Also, by having sites like the 1 i mentioned earlier, it may give the impression that it is normal, and ok, to cheat, and they r giving u a gateway to it.
Its promotion of infidelity.

Again it really does not bother me. It would be like me making a site that does not allow chat speak. Something I can not stand. It is the internet. There is all kinds of crap on here. Not everybody is going to like everything. Everything in this world is to each there own.

Well I would have to agree here. The thing about being married and on a site that promotes dating, is the same as cheating. Think... If they were happy, then why do they need to turn to a site like this? Friends; Not likely, they can have friends in the real world. It’s just a way to meet someone that they could possibly cheat on their spouse with.
I did read this somewhere once. It is because they are not happy at home, and online dating sites like this are a way to meet that someone that they might take the risk to cheat with. I think the article mentioned that it was a survey of married people (men and women both), and it was an astonishing number like %98 are on them to find the potential other.

I'll try to find this article to past a link to. But I will also add that I don't beleive that all married foke are looking to cheat.

Actually, i dont think that its a big deal for married ppl to be on a site like this. I believed it was for FRIENDS as well as dating.

Im here, but im not looking to meet new males, i just wanted somewhere to post in forums, and get a banter with other folks as well as friends i have already made.

On my last site, which was very similar, there was a few of married couples and various ppl in committed relationships, and they were online to keep up with friends, and for fun banter.

Wat im tryin to say is, this site, and others like it, tend to turn into communities, where most ppl r on friendly terms and banter....the site i was originally talking about was SPECIFICALLY for married folks who want a bit fun on the side.

I think this topic about the banners was answered a few days ago. It is to help pay for using this "Free site". And I did add; that I do not think nor feel all married people are on here to cheat. I just referred to some article that I had seen.

I understand that, and i dont have any probs with WHERE the ads are, i was more talking about the specific site and the likes of, and wanted to ask how others felt about it.

My first reaction was that it's kind of sad and kind of shallow....then I got to thinking, well, lots of married people use "regular" sites and pretend to be single. So that's really no better either.

I guess I finally decided the problem really isn't with the sites, per se, regardless of what they're geared to -- the real problem, as always, is with the people using the sites.

And that's why I have trust issues....

I've come across a site that even offers people help in covering their tracks to try to make sure they are not caught in having their affairs. You pay them a certain amount of money and book the motels, the flights, the dinners, buy the gifts, etc. so there are no receipts or paper trail that the spouse might happen upon. Sad!!!
