    My brother is currently doing this sort of thing (since his wife left him on xmas eve -- baitch)

    On his first try he deliberately choose a girl who was not the best looking in her photo on the assumption that photos never seem to ake you look and good and so in real life she should look better -- she didn't (lesson 1 learned)

    He has been on a few others but still not found anyone who he has clikced with - but then I guess it is a numbers game sometimes.

      I used AFF for a while when I became single 7 odd years ago. I had a couple of enjoyable all-night dates

          Friend of mine (who is now married to a girl he met on the net) had quite a few dates and kept getting bunny boilers or women who had been abused and had intimacy problems.

          He came home with this really fit bird one day and went out with her for a month(she broke it off it then end
          as she said 'she' was getting too close (which was true as she kept coming round & phoning him).

          He then said he wasn't enjoying sleeping with her though as it all a but weird. She started by asking him to gently slap her, then harder and on the last time wanted him to punch her in the stomach!!!!!

          Weird.

            I know loads of people who have tried it, myself included - know a few couples who are married now or engaged etc.

            I had a date with one fella - no spark but we got on really well and became friends - I ended up introducing him to another single friend of mine and now they are engaged

              This dating thing is a minefield, so many potential faux pas.

              Now you hear mention of cock photos, suddenly you're interested?

                  Stories.

                  My mate was on this dating thing for about a year and would get sent 'five' perfect matches every month. So it was pretty much guaranteed dates.

                  Now he was a bit quiet, boring most people found him but he was a nice bloke and it made him more assertive.

                  One day, I pinched his monthly list and thought, bollocks I'll have a go at one of these and phoned a girl on his list.

                  Oh my god! The girl picked answered and immediately you could tell why she was single. A long drawn nasally 'Hellllloooooo'. What followed was a nasally monotone voice, where even though 27 she only had one friend a 15 year old girl who she'd hang around with. She was unemployed and every answer was 'dunno'. Eventually she said 'you seem nice, do you want to meet up?' I bottled it, and agreed to meet her that night on a bridge in Lewes.

                  We hung up and I immediately rang back again but this time disguised the number so she couldnt 1471. Needless to say I didnt turn up & told my flatmate about this boiler I nicked of his list.

                  A few weeks passed and one evening the phone went. 'Helllllloooooooo can I speak to X?'(X being my flatmate). Jeezus I nearly choked and passed the phone to him gesticulating wildly. I'd got stuck on the phone with her for about 40 minutes, how will he cut out of this!

                  He answered, pulled a face and then said 'No sorry, I've met someone but good luck' and put the phone down! She was none the wiser.

                    I have to admit the last guy I dated had a very big personality.
