Looking for sex online
November 28, 2017

I'm still not convinced AFF works but my mates all say it does. Personally, I had more luck on hookuphangout.com, got more replies and met a girl for drinks a few weeks back. But trying this one as it's meant to be 'the best'. Time will tell I guess.

I've become more and more suspicious of AFF.

Multiple times I've gotten responses to inquiries with "women"... when I bring up whether they're "real"... they'll say yes... BUT... suddenly as we converse... their English becomes very broken (supposedly local women)... or they consistently cite tech issues as an excuse... or...(my two favorites)... they'll say they've met somebody on AFF...(but when questioned as to why they keep their profile online - no response)... this happened three times... THEN... another favorite... they'll say..."oh... I've been chosen as an AFF 'ambassador'... and if you do this you'll be more successful... blah, blah..."... basically saying their profile is false...

I personally think AFF is a massive fraud... sorry... that's the truth... it's not about more men than women... again... blah, blah, blah.

My wife have had a profile on aff for 8 years (started when she was 26) and with much success. She's talked to hundreds of men in all ages there and actually dated over 40 different men of which many became regular lovers and friends.

Still good if you are careful
May 29, 2018
Updated review

Its difficult to find and meet women who are genuine and really know what they want; there are many fakes but sometimes - like my 15 year affair which is still going - you can succeed. Since I wrote my first review, Ive had one casual encounter and locally Ive met one woman who shares my need for something outside our main relationships. So now I can enjoy time with two partners both married like me but strictly no strings. And Ill keep looking!

Mixed experience
May 29, 2018
Previous review

I joined in 2003, a married man looking for adventure outside my usual circle. Over the years I've had mixed experiences. I think in those early days, in Europe anyway, the women on the site were often escorts, and it took a while to find genuine people. I chatted with dozens, met and slept with a few in the first six months, as a result had one very active six month relationship and one still going strong with regular sex after 14 years. Definitely over the time I've been on the site the number of scams seems to have increased, although I have managed to enjoy myself with a number of like-minded women in different countries. I just do a bit of research before I travel. So you can have some fun if you take care. I have never advertised my 'equipment' on the site nor responded to women showing off their tops. Sex has to have some mystery, undressing is part of the fun. I also tried other sites with some success but the same issues. Buyer beware but it is possible to achieve what you want.

Lag, lag lame
August 10, 2015

We have been members for over a year now and long ago did we realize that the majority of profiles are indeed fake. When you are not sifting through fake profiles you can enjoy the member cams with nine or ten creepy old $#*!s in dirty dark rooms and maybe a couple from guatemala $#*!ing in a tent. The only good thing about this site is the live cam girls which unfortunately is Cams.com and these companies are one and the same. AFF is hard to use, not easy to navigate, has an impressive number of nobody near you at all, really and is mostly for age groups 40-65. As far as a membership is concerned I regret paying for it.

In my honest opinion this site gets better as time goes on which is the same for most of the good casual sex/ NSA sites (hookuphangout.com, etc). Some people don't seem to realise that it takes a while for the chats to get going and the replies to start coming in. I was pretty much ready to give up and then I got chatting with a smoking hot girl that I assumed was a fake until she agreed to meet up with me. Patience does pay off and even if you're not out there banging blondes and brunettes like a true player you can still have a good time. Ive had some amazing chats, some naked selfies and all that stuff and its pretty cool (beats watching x factor anyway) So yeah, give it time and then judge it, if you want instant sex then there are ladies in every city that you can pay directly if that floats your boat but for me I prefer the chase (and yes, admittedly much cheaper option) of hook up sites like this.

Playing the Game
August 7, 2022

In two months, I've actually laid eyes (or more) on three women. There are a lot of scammers. They use stilted English, or their profile picture is 20 years younger than the stated age, or it's plug-and-play with the pic and profile, so you get something like a petite Asian whose body is described as "ample." Women of any race can be "Native American." One key is to treat contacts like feeling, sentient beings, and address something about them that isn't blatant. Write well. Use humor. Have a head shot. It's a challenge to figure out the game, but more frustration than it's worth, I'm afraid.

Search options
April 4, 2016

As a woman its important to be able to use an advanced search to narrow results down as there are so many guys on this site. AFF has a really good search thingy and it saves me so much time going thru loads of ugly blokes pages. I usually stick with the sites that are free for women like Tinder and HookupHangout but will probably keep using this now too.

Scam scam scam
November 20, 2017

Add is probably the worst scam site on the web every yes every woman in my inbox has been a scammer from just fake profiles to guys pretending to be girls. Was messaging one woman that seemed genuine until I checked on the friends tab and found her profile has three different people on it from at least for different countries.
Never ever pay for the site go to your local pub you'll have more luck.

AFF is not worth the money. I was bombarded by fake bots and sent countless emails, to eventually pay to find out that all the profiles were fake. Yeah I would recommend using a site like XratedSingles.com, I had good success with them.

This site is too hard on men. My husband lets me date on the side, and it's a great life having my home life and then getting to be single on occasion. So I joined AFF to find some fun and at first it seemed promising, but I soon realized the high cost and fake womens profiles were driving single men away from the site, and that affects the number and quality of my local selections. They need to ease up on single guys.

Fraud by Owners
March 2, 2024

While there are real people on the site, the operators engage in fraud every day, First, no natter how many times you put auto-renew on OFF, the system will auto renew. Forget trying to make picture private because the function doesn't work. In fact, the site is so poorly designed that I wish you the best of luck on figuring out how to make pics private. I've been on this site for years, on and off, and have finally reached the off side on a permanent basis. Nothing has changed over the years. The people who run it should probably have been prosecuted or fined into oblivion years ago for their fraudulent practices.

Sorry liars, that's it. Sure maybe you will meet a real girl, in 4 years I met ONE. The rest, want money, prostitutes, most won't even reply to messages. But they send fake ads to entice, it's all about money, nothing more.

Keep it up
March 31, 2018

Now that Craigslist removed personal ads, reliable hookup sites like Adultfriendfinder and CasualDating4u are even more important. I know they ain't perfect but with all the scam sites out there those are the only legit options left. Keep it up guys.

Poor customer service
September 30, 2018

Spent 4+ hours setting up profile and creating contacts. 12 hours later, my account has been "put on hold" pending Risk Management. Only way to contact them is via an international call to customer services who will then transfer me to said department. Customer service rep (Jason) was not at all forthcoming with details and I frequently had to ask him to clarify what he was saying.

All in all, a complete waste of time and effort, and customer service that would make Auschwitz blush. You're better off using Fetlife or another casual dating site.

What a joke
January 7, 2023

This site has been around for ages, and I'm sure at some point in the distant past it may have been "the world's largest adult community", but there's hardly any active users on there. Most would have been roped in to sign up and then realised that the site is barely usable without a paid membership (which isn't exactly cheap). It's anyone's wonder these guys still exist, when there are so many better FREE alternative hook up apps available.

Years ago, this site was actually worthwhile, and I met a few really cool girls. Of course that was then. Now, the site is totally pointless, as there are more bots and fake profiles than anything else. Don't waste your money, your time, or even the keystrokes on your profile... you won't get anywhere. If you're a current member, cancel your membership and shut these fools down.
