So right .It is so obvious the collect emails you receive right after you sign up are fake and the pictures are copies.After you pay in to the site and be able to read the messages and reply,you never gat to hear from them.I am sure there are some real ones mostly 200 pounds or more.I spent $40.00 so far but you should save your money.

A few years ago AM was worthwhile but now ...

I'm a married female who used the site 3 years ago and found a affair partner. In those days a woman didn't have to buy credits, but could exchange messages with a guy who had paid for credits who initiated the conversation. I was always polite and responded to men who contacted me even if there was no potential there, just to assure them that I was real and that there are a few real married women on there seeking affairs.

My affair recently ended and so I went back to the site expecting the same type of experience. Instead what I found was that after being on the site for 4 days, they blocked my access to respond to messages.

So here we have these poor guys wasting credits on contacting me, and I can't even respond unless I buy credits!

I was debating buying credits but I think I will look elsewhere to find an affair partner. I apologize to any men I was unable to respond to.

I tried it to for the hell of it and found out that A) the selection of women is SMALL and they never ever write back.

This was a interesting experiment but that's what AM counts on...millions of guys "experimenting."

Haha its called karma you idiots - hilarious you go on and complain about a site that your on to actively cheat on your spouse -

Here's some amazing logic hy dont you just leave them before you start seeing someone else - bunch of weak c***ts

OK guys we need to help each other out here in a world women have an unfair advantage. I have been on Ashley Madison long enough to know what really goes on.

Collect Messages:
Don't open any Collect Messages on AM. First, women don't make an effort unless they are interested. It takes some conversation for that to even begin to happen. So a collect message will not be from someone real.
Recently I even caught AM at their game. I kept emailing back questioning if they were real and they kept trying to defend their profile never admitting if they were for real or not. Eventually the profile as usual disappeared. If it was a real person then they would either not reply or get upset. Also would not give me some marketing line like "best wishes in finding your playmate". I have never heard a real woman say that to me. If you ever get any collect message please do not waste your credits. It is either AM making money on your credits or some loony woman you never get a sane line of conversation from.

Hidden Charges:
Make sure to uncheck the priority email option when send a message. AM automatically checks it for you (how nice) and if you send the message you will be charged double the credits.

Make sure not to run out of credits, if you do you will not be able to send any messages even to those you already paid for.

Profiles

What profiles to stay away from (likely fake)
Profiles with only general information. A woman who can not do the minimum amount of effort will not be worth the major effort you will have to put in the end. Most are likely fake as why do much if you can get guys to drop credits anyway. Stop doing all the work, women need to do something, come on ladies get off your lazy ass and be apart of something.

OK now to the real women on AM

An affair is more difficult for a woman than a man so they will be hesitant. They likely have the security of the husband to fall back on. Or just too afraid to do things that are not comfortable. Then there are the ones that are too good for anyone and enjoy turning guys down. Some just like the attention they get from all the winks and email and just sit back and read emails. I say to these ladies GET REAL. All you will have in the end is loneliness and bad attitude. If you come across these types put your foot down and let them know this is not acceptable. Be aggressive, don't take the crap. It is funny how many replies I get when I get flippant. They don't have the time to reply when you are being nice, but boy they can write messages when you put them on the spot. To my amazement women are superficial, look at all the profiles that want buff guys with six packs that are 6 foot or higher requirements. And we get put down for wanting a pretty face.

Just so you know I have met plenty of women on AM, the actual count so far is countless emails, 8 lunches, 3 long term, and 2 intimately. Now what was the quality level: not high. Compared to the single women I have known as a married man, married women are not highly intelligent at least in conversation, not very secure, and not that much fun

AM says don't go to an escort have an affair. I don't like the idea of going to an escort and avoided it. OK lets do the math. A 22 year old escort usually has a near perfect body, is easy to get time with, you know what you are going to get, and there is not a long courting process. OK you will say it is cheaper to have an affair. Escorts are expensive at $140 to $160 found in online ads. Lets look at the cost of an affair. Lunch at leas once or twice or more $30 to $50 a pop especially with some drinks, hotel room (married women are not going to go anywhere personal) $80-$120. She may want some presents from time to time,throw in another $50. We have not even added in the cost of AM which will be minimal in the end. Total for one round just for a chance of getting some quality time $110 minimum to more likely over $200. Just one intimate experience after all your trouble and you are already around an hourly cost with an escort. Not good odds, not sure if worth the hassle, inconvenience, and risk of your wife finding out about an affair. On one of my lucky adventures for two hours of love making it cost me $80 for lunch and drinks and $160 for the hotel room; total $240. I bought plenty of AM women lunches without so much as a thank you (what kind of manners is that?). Ladies if want free lunches just sign up on AM and go out with random guys.

The few I have been with always wanted to see me regularly (I always do my best), but I just did not see the experience I received worth it. It was ok, but not as good as my single women friends that were more energetic and creative in bed. With women it all comes down to motivation. If they have a hubby to fall back on then why put the extra effort. I don't know about you, but I don't need another wife.

Escorts although unreasonably priced are looking more attractive. Now you are saying what about the closeness you feel with someone you know. I am still looking for that quality level among the married women I have met. There is a reason why married women are on AM. If they were so attractive they would have left their husband already (divorce is more commonly initiated by women, it is usually to their benefit monetarily) or found someone in their neighborhood or at work. Have you heard of a work husband? That is how normal women operate. The women I have met on AM all have their own problems (mental issues, insecurity, needing attention, lack of understanding of men, being boring people, over weight, unattractive, uptight, controlling...) it is not their poor husbands. I only met one that really had a bad husband and she ended up divorcing him. See what I mean? She was actually the most fun, but now she is single, she has options, and does not want to be with a married man. Why should she, I understand it.

There are nice women on AM, however statistically it may be around 0.01%. Yes if you win the AM lottery and you are the guy she decides to give it up for then congratulations. I am not sure it is worth the years of typing your brains out for on emails.

Otherwise, I say look for single women. There is a free site called OKcupid which has some married people on it. That is where I found my single attractive lady with a great personality. BTW I don't work for OKcupid, just a happy customer, besides it is free.

Complete rip off unless you are rich, I even had to pay £15 to remove my account. No response from anyone, A stupid tax good luck, don't say I didn't warn you

To answer your question, the women on the site are real, at least the ones that I met. But one major problem is that are 7 men to 3 women so it is very hard to get noticed. Depending on the picture that the woman puts up she will get from 3 to 8 hundred emails in a couple of days and those odds are horrid in anyone’s book.

Another part of thier scam is that they have some opt-in option hidden somewhere on the site, so when I figured out the odds and used up the rest of my credits they automatically charged my card. They have a check box that you can select to always keep you “refilled” with credits which I had unchecked when I first signed up but apparently there is a second hidden one. As with all these type of sites they are in business to steal form you and assume that you won’t do anything about it. You’re better off in a bar.

I checked out this site for a couple weeks. I saw one woman's profile where she was apologizing for not answering her messages. She said that she had over 500 messages. It seemed that anyone local had a very generic profile and no pictures and never answered any messages, including opening them. Costs a minimum of $49 to start and they don't tell you that they charge $19 to drop out of the site. If the site is not a scam I feel it is still a ripoff because the ratio of men to women seems to be way off if one woman receives 500 messages. Almost every woman's profile stated they were looking for the bad boy type. Which to me is a guy who acts like a jerk and is always in trouble. Don't waste your money on this site. I'm betting there are 10 guys for every woman on this site.
