Oh god. That's horrifying. I met XH 14 years ago, so I never tried it. I've avoided it so far, although I know I'll likely eventually give in. So many assholes.

Ew. Why do they think in any way that this would be a good first message to send a person? It's not funny, and in a form of dating where first impressions are definitely everything, you'd think they'd try to make a better one.
And tinder. And bumble. And POF. And every site I've been on in recent history. All of them. So frustrating. It's all the same people and everyone is just gross.
Very true. I think I've gotten more nasty messages on okc though.

Agree. OKC is the worst.
Tinder is not too far away but its basically just game. No one is serious.
Bumble pays models. No way. I got tons of doctors and they are all insanely hot. Nope. I'm not buying it.
It's always interesting to hear other people's OLD stories. OKC was my favorite by far. I really liked it. There's a lot of overlap between all the main dating sites, but I liked OKC's layout and matching algorithm. It was pretty spot on when it came to matching me with compatible matches. PoF... I always got the dive bar feel from it. When it came to sleazy comments and questions, it was definitely the worse. I tried Match a few times. I didn't really care for it. I met MH just before Tinder was created or became popular. From what I've read and reading many others' stories, I wouldn't have cared for Tinder.
I hate it when guys think it's cute to make those kind of comments to a stranger. I suspect those delightful specimins of masculinity will be alone the rest of their life. lol

Yeah. um. Ew. And I love how he "guarantees" what you and your friends joke about and calls you a hypocrite over it. At least he's showing his hand right out of the gate.

I'm sorry mp. Are there any decent sites? I "know" people here who have meet good matches but not one in real life. I do have a friend who started elite singles. She likes that one so far
Well, that is disgusting. I would not surprise with Tinder because that strikes me as more of a hook up site vs. people really looking for something serious.
I met H on Match and when I was on there never got gross messages. I did have a guy who would not leave me alone, constantly telling me he looked like Robert DeNiro. The final straw with him, whom I ignored, was when he mentioned coming to my house in this creepy way.

Yeah. It sucks.
I generally prefer Tinder and Bumble because essentially you both have to consent to communicating. On OKC and POF I'd get at least 10 messages like that a day.
