I have tried all the big dating sites at one time or another, and I also pull tail at the gym, the beach, the pool, bars/clubs, restaurants (waitresses/bartenders), and random everyday places like grocery stores. I'm qualified to opine on what is worth your time and what isn't, and this is the bottom line on the big dating sites:
Match: Definitely the classiest, most well-rounded chicks online. Probably because of its monthly fee, Match attracts chicks who are more successful and career-oriented than POF does. They also don't seem to have the "must get married immediately" mentality that you find with the women on eHarmony. If you are bringing something to the table (Match is NOT the site for dudes who take shirtless cellphone camera pics in their bathroom mirrors) you can find anything from casual sex to a promising LTR on Match. Best of all, the chicks you meet on there will be normal enough for you to introduce them to your friends without being embarrassed.
eHarmony: The chicks here are generally nice girls who aren't trashy, but this is NOT the place to go to get laid. For one thing, you have to pass a series of compatability tests and exchange several messages before you can even see a girl's picture. That is ridiculous. What if you are "compatible" with a girl based on eHarmony's esoteric algorithms but she turns out to be a fat cow? I don't have time to waste on such nonsense. The chicks here want one thing: To get a ring on their finger and FAST. If that's what you're looking for, knock yourself out. Me, I have better uses of my time.
POF: Might as well be a who's who of chicks who couldn't make the cut on Match. VERY easy place to get laid. 90% of the chicks will have a line in their profile (often in all caps) about how they aren't looking for a booty call or FWB and they don't do one night stands, but trust me, that goes out the window when you meet them and they see that you're a few cuts above the other idiots who e-mail them with tattoos on their necks and bathroom mirror pics. You have to at least pretend you're looking for a relationship if you want to score here with regularity, but beyond that, it doesn't take much effort at all.
Craigslist: The Internet equivalent of a dive bar at closing time. No need for pretenses here, everyone knows what everyone else wants and no one even tries to hide it. Post a picture of your junk, wait for a suitable response, then do your business. Looking for an LTR here is like looking for an LTR in the red light district, but if you're just looking for sex and you can't be bothered to make an effort to get it, there is no better place online.
Couldn't agree more! ^^^^^^^^
Roommate really did it this time!
Some girl he brings over( he met her at the bar) hooks me up with her girlfriend.
She's married with kids(didn't know about kids till after the deed).
She's still married to this guy and she keeps coming over every other nite.
Now im getting pretty scared.
you meet crazy people online or in person... just because you met them on the computer doesn't mean they're a creeper and just because you met them in person doesn't mean they're "normal".
i did meet someone on CL about three years ago... turned out to be a good FWB but nothing more. haven't tried it since then though.
I got involved with a man in another city who had a really sad "heartbroken" ad on craigslist.
Our relationship blossomed and I fell in love with him although there were red flags ...
we were talking about getting engaged when I found out he was still posting ads.
He said he had done it "accidentally." I forgave him and he took the ad off.
Yesterday (three weeks later) I decided to check, and there his ad was, right on the top of the albuquerque men for women
ads. So I went nuclear on him and am now history. He said he was SO LONELY in the ad!! Please we were on the phone all
the time. Well he is a lot lonelier now.
Don't do Craigslist. IT's the worst.
Brought another chick home last nite.
She was hotter than the other chick!
Although after talking to her for 10 mins i came realized she was a total loon.
Take that as an indication. It's a real crap shoot, from what I'm told. Some of the women there are for rent, and they're not the ones collecting the rent, if you know what I mean. There are syndicates that work this type of venue.
gross. i would never in a million years pick some random man up off the web and then screw him. people don't cares what they do anymore or who they do it with.
*anyone read those CL ads (OMG) and still pick up a person off there, very questionable.

Is NJ like that? It sure isn't like that here in the Washington, DC area. It's very difficult to meet anyone.
It's been years since I read craigslist ads for dating. For the record I never contacted anyone. Craigslist is great for many things but from what I remember reading dating is not one of them. Who knows maybe I'm wrong about that. However, I would advise anyone to be extra careful on that site.

You're not supposed to just screw him right away. You're supposed to have some drinks first or something, and if you like him after that (I'm sure you know if you like a guy within the first 5 minutes of meeting him), then feel free to screw. If you're not comfortable with that, wait until you're a few dates in before getting down to business.
Ewww @ Craigslist personals...I feel as if I need a course of antibiotics if I simply click on it...
