Ladies, women, beware and STAY FAR AWAY from a man with the username flairjess, 25 years old on POF. He put his place of location as n/a, Illinois. He uses women for sex. He PRETENDS to be a nice guy until he uses people enough times for sex. Afterwards, he wants his space, he becomes hard to reach by phone and will start becoming extremely emotionally abusive and verbally abusive. Eventually, he will get to a point where he doesn't want to be bothered anymore. Something is terribly wrong with him! He devalues women he uses for sex. He DOESN'T want a relationship. Furthermore, he enjoys making fun of women. Women, DON'T give flairjess, 25 years old, any of your time. AVOID HIM. HE IS EVIL.

Skeptical
February 18, 2019

I've been on this site for couple weeks now and it's not free. Once you have started a chat with someone they all start the same, Hey there, then it's automatic. They give you the link to another site and want to to go there. If you don't, then that's it. Chat is finished. Seems to me that the due only promotes a variety of other sites. And when you are really interested in someone you get blocked by the company until you pay. It's bogus if you ask me.

The women are deluded
February 12, 2019

This sums pof up

Saw a profile from an average looking woman with a huge nose
It said only contact me if you're decent looking
I asked her why she had put that & she said she was tired of being messaged all time by mingers (slang for ugly)
It didn't occur to her that she herself was no oil painting.
Women 3/10 thinking they can get guys who are 10/10. Absolutely ridiculous

Nasty
February 12, 2019

The women on here must get hundreds of messages from desperate men. That's the only explanation I can think for so many unattractive overweight women having such an attitude problem chip on their shoulders. 99% of the ones I saw you wouldn't go near yet act like they're princesses

All the females who for years have been ignored suddenly thanks to online dating think they're a great catch. Lol. Talk about deluded.

Either try the real world or stay single but don't give these women the satisfaction of a message

It has turned into nothing more than a total scam site. Within my zip codes that I have a home there are no less than 18 and sometimes as high as 32 total foreign scams as well as locals offering their services. POF has the ability to block all of these before hand, but chooses not too. $$$$$ Involved?

Laughably bad women
February 2, 2019

The women can say they want a good man or honest one but unless you look like a male model you'll be ignored.

It doesn't matter that the women on here are all ridiculously below average looking and offer nothing back it's all about what they want. They all think they're princesses and won't settle for anything less than some perfect stunning man yet can't understand why they're single. I laugh when their profile says they enjoy going out but also enjoy staying in. Such insight into their lives

I deliberately messaged a woman just to see, she was 32, overweight, smoked and had a job as a carer which means she's not very intelligent and her longest relationship was 1 year. I said hello how are you AND SHE BLOCKED ME. Seriously a woman no man would want was seriously picky. It just made me laugh that some whale could be so choosy.

I did get 1 message. It was from a 49 year old divorcee who said hi. I asked how she was and she said **** & proceeded to say how she can't find a man who is honest and can't trust anyone anymore. What kind of first impression is that? Moaning and cursing? Terrible standard of woman on here

They're all deluded and not worth the hassle usually photos from 2013 too

Ps how does the review below get through just shilling for another site?

I had been on pof for about 8 months. Had quite a few disaster dates. I decided I would close my account as there were a lot of players, time wasters and liars. I had one more try with a guy I had noticed who lived in the same town as me. I sent a flirt. Within an hour I received a reply, we chatted for hours then decided we would meet 2 days later. On 20. 6. 2018 we met in the local pub, chatted for hours and set another date. We are still together and spend most of our free time together. We have now set and booked our wedding day for 20. 6. 2020. I would like to thank pof. There are genuine people on the site, just a shame the idiots spoil it. I had to kiss a few frogs before I met my Prince, the most amazing man I could ever meet. Be patient he/ she is out there for u

Worse than bad
January 26, 2019

Was on here about 18months ago and was bad, thought I would give it a try again. Huge mistake its even worse now!
Loads of same familiar faces from 18 months ago still asking where are all the good men? With the same photos they had in 2017, how can you not find a decent man in 18 months unless you are uber picky?

I saw one profile and a 36 year old woman put that her dog will always come first in the relationship, I thought she was joking so messaged and asked and she replied she was deadly serious. This is the type of person you are dealing with, who puts a dog before a man?

Another profile had a list of about 10 things you must adhere to in order to message her, not to meet and have dates, just to message! Must have brown hair, blue eyes and be over 185 cm tall etc, Its just silly, you look at them and they are 160cm and no oil painting

Not meaning to be rude but most of the women on here have issues, they either socially awkward and find it difficult to send more than one word replies or they are all extremely picky and all holding out for some super hero Channing tatum guy to come along and rescue them. Totally unrealistic. Then there are the men haters, loads of them seem to be women scorned and just nasty unpleasant for the sake of it. There is no way they would dare say in real world what they say online, or maybe they do and thats why theyre single

I notice as well the women love to put photos that are not of them, but of landscapes, their pets and silly memes with sayings on, or cakes they have baked

Online dating has turned all women into thinking they are princesses

Finally the scam fake profiles are ridiculous, its like the person owning the website has given up and just lets fakes post without doing anything.

The "men" on here are stupid and picky narcissistic trash that only want a woman to worship that sweaty turd of STDs between their legs. They are poor fatasses with no personality or anything else, short and weigh 300-400lbs. With full titties, stinky $#*!ty neckbeards, mid-20s and never had a girlfriend, and stay at home with their parents and no job with their weird lameass friends. They think deserve a supermodel to drag around the other bastards like a $#*!ing trophy. They don't. They don't deserve $#*!. If you find a "man" from here, they will trick you for a while, and soon enough, their true side will show. They will be abusive and treat you like worthless disposable $#*!ing trash to be used for their own mischievous purposes, when you only want to treat them kindly and lovingly. Run away from this $#*!show while you still can!

It's free. I never get responses. Most of the women are not attractive. The world is supposed to be plentiful of fish looking for a mate yet I have never found one here. Most of us will never find love in any form we try and the electronic world is no different. But I least I don't have to pay. You get what you pay for. You see what I mean?

Not a great site

The women are all looking for the perfect man regardless of how they look themselves. I've seen profiles that say you must be between 29 and 31 must have brown hair and be between 6 foot and 6^3 tall. Can you imagine that happening in the real world in a bar? A women saying no I'm not interested as you have the wrong colour hair? It shows how silly these females are on here

Most of the women are past the best or are really bitter and have seen better days yet they on here demanding the perfect man. A lot can't even put the photo on the right way up. They put childish things for the profession too.

I've just read one profile which said answer 20+15 in your reply so i know you've read this hahaha you couldn't write about how demanding this lot are.

My view is if you're over 30 then your best days are gone so you have no right being so damn picky you get what you're given. I have also noticed females love showing their tattoos and kissing the pets in photos. Not very appealing in the slightest

There are way tons of fake profiles on here. Easy to spot but literally hundreds of them pretending to be real people

You might find some easy lay on here but the women of your dreams. Forgetaboutit

I'll Leave you with this. If these women are as amazing as they think they are how come no guy snapped them up years ago and put a ring on it?

I've caught one
January 1, 2019

Now I've been on several dating apps and I can tell you this is kind of basic. I mean you can still message people or see who like you, but it still has those upgrades that you don't really have to pay for. So then why am I giving it four stars well I'll tell you why. This site is the most real dating site. You don't have to wait to message someone, you don't have to be 100% compatible with someone, you just talk and get to know someone. I should know because I've found someone on here and we've really hit it off. We both really like each other and I can't wait to see where it goes. So if you think this isn't the right dating site for you just remember, I found someone on there... think about it.

The worst! Never use it!
December 28, 2018

I would give it a zero if i could. The search function is hidden. You enter, for example, an age range, and POF ignores it completely! It's a feature they claim! I asked where this was documented! Nowhere! And when i complained a few days after paying they said "Too bad." The worst ever!
