Let's hear some CL/ Internet stories

[high_jinx]

i've recently perused the w4m and casual encounter sections of a few sites, and wanted to hear any funny or informative stories y'all mighta had. also, your opinion on if its worth delving into would be nice.

edit: i haven't actually had the nerve to try it yet myself. but it's fun to read, and i know a poker buddy that's a daily visitor to many hookin' up kinda sites, that's left our poker game to respond to many an ad. im thinking about trying it soon, and was curious about other's experiences/opinions...

This maybe a little off topic of what you're asking but...

A recent major move had me either storing or selling off a large percentage of my possessions. After deciding what I could not part with I set about listing everything else on every free board I could find. This included CL. One day a guy shows up to buy my boat. I get to talking with him and he comments how much he loves CL. Says he can find anything and everything on there. Women, drugs, you name it. Said he wouldn't be surprised to find a hit man for hire on CL. Later that night I found my way over to CL PDX. I start looking at the ads for, well hookers. I start seeing terms I've simply never heard before. Sure all the normal stuff like French, straight, Greek... you get the idea. But I also read a bunch of stuff I never heard before. One of the terms that puzzled me was "birdwatching." Scratching my head and wondering what this had to do with sex I found my way to a glossary of terms. There I found my answer. Turns out, for those who don't already know, "Birdwatching" is basically a BJ... no spitting allowed. The term "down the hatch" was listed as part of the explanation. So I logged this new term into my memory bank and forget about it.

Fast forward two or three weeks and I'm sitting on the edge of a small pool in a cheap motel in Mexico, drinking my morning coffee and talking with a Canadian lady in her late 70'. Turns out her and her husband moved into the motel nearly six years ago. I asked her what caused them to make such a move. And just as her husband walked out she explained how much, you guessed it, they both loved to birdwatch. I'm sure she's still wondering why I blew coffee out my nose. The two of them must have said "birdwatch" 10 times in a 3 min. conversation.

I'm picky and uh, damn near every ad in the W4M LTR is below my standards.

other than that it worked for selling some of my stuff.


I've not bothered thinking to ry casual encounters, I just don't think i could get along with myself on that issue. It's like free prostitution with someone basically giving themselves the opportunity to be hammered by as many men who reply to thier ads.

[Tully Mars]

They make for interesting, often funny as hell, reading but after seeing who showed up to purchase things from my ads I don't see where a meet and greet would even be option. Even if I were in the "market" (haven't been for nearly 30yrs) I sure as hell wouldn't seek out anyone posting on CL.

In reading through these ads it occurred to me there must be a ton of people out there having sex with people they wouldn't give there home number to.

Well durr!. If you give your home number to the women you screw, they might call and get through to your wife.

I'd settle for him explaining WTF CL is.

[fresnelly]

CL = Craigslist

I find the personals section a bit shocking to be honest. It's hard to believe there are that many people out looking for an honest casual encounter.

I'd love to hear some stories though.

Reminds me of Abe Simpson from the "I saw Grampa cussing Santa Claus" episode:

Cyrus: Sorry I never called, Abe. I've been too busy with my fifteen native wives. (Cyrus' fifteen wives walk over and start giggling)
Grampa: Fifteen? Boy, that sounds like a lot of sex!
Cyrus: I said wives, not girlfriends.

Craigslist Rants and Raves are the best.

It's like going to the zoo.

It's a lot like monkeys flinging shit at each other, but with a lower average IQ.

Hmm, I'd take a good long look at MSD's post and weigh your willingness to engage with low IQ monkeys and flying shit against your desire to pursue your curiosity.

Seriously and honestly it seems to me there might be better avenues to search out individuals to help you test the waters.

Best of luck.

First 3 women seeking Men in my area.



It is so cold outside I can't stand it. It would be easier to handle if I could spend some of this time getting cozy and warm with a special someone under the covers.I can't say that I won't be sharing the covers with anybody tonight since I often am cuddling with my 2 little boys. We enjoy watching Disney movies and sipping on hot cocoa on nights like these. So indeed you have to be okay with the fact that I am a Mommy!

You must have a genuine kind heart (heart of gold) beautiful on the inside as well as the outside. Conscious about your health and well being. You must be educated, compassionate about life,understanding towards others,loyal to me and family,also able to make me laugh

I enjoy long drives without a certain destination, quiet peaceful serenity at the lake front just listening to the waves come ashore(when weather permits), traveling, and of course shopping.

You: Attractive and Fit White/Caucasian at least 30 years old (mature and secure) Disease/Drug/Nicotine Free Occasional social drinking is fine but I am not one you will ever meet in the bar/club scene.

I am an optimistic, positive gal with hopes of finding true love! Would love to share my dreams and just all the little things that life has to offer with someone. Might be corny but sometimes I am! hehe I am a romantic at heart with a lot to offer to one special guy! Good luck to You all, God Bless, and stay warm
----------------------------------

Yes, it’s true, I smoke cigarettes and pot. I just thought I’d get that out of the way so I could easily get beyond all those people that have a problem with that. So anyway, now that we’ve covered that, I’m a 33 year old SWF. I’m 5’7 and normal (personality and size). I’m not looking for an insta-relationship, nor am I looking for a one night stand or “friends with benefits”, etc; I can easily get that. I would just like to date and see what happens. Of course I’d love to find that special person and build a relationship but can we really put that much pressure on us immediately? Yes, attraction and chemistry is extremely important. Sexual chemistry included as well. But I have to say I feel sorry for all these guys who concentrate on only that aspect. I’m sorry that that has been a problem for you in past relationships. I’m sorry you’ve been with women who didn’t like sex; I’m not one of them. It’s never been an issue in any of my relationships, and I can assure you that it wouldn’t be in ours. So now can we get on to other things? I am looking for someone single and honest. I think one of the worst things you can do is lie to someone. I would like to find someone who can spell words and use complete sentences. I want to find someone who is not boring and will play with me at a park, in the woods, on the beach, on a river, in the sky, etc. Laughing and having fun is very important to me. You can understand why I don't want to post a picture, but I will share one if I like what you have to say. There’s a lot more to me, but you’ll have to write me to find that out. Please write something more than one sentence asking for a picture. Here’s hoping we find each other so we can start playing and having fun together!
----------------------------

-----------------------------------------------
Sexy BBW wants to be a dirty girl for her Daddy today.

I'm just getting over my period (its very light almost non existent). It got me fantasizing about telling my Daddy I got my period for the first time...and him saying we should celebrate me becoming a woman. That of course includes wine and Daddy suggesting baby change into something from mommy's closet that would be more grown up.

Seduce me Daddy and make me into a woman. Play with my big 38D titties and suck on my gorgeous nipples. Make me take your thick cock in my mouth. Maybe I'll have to resist a little along the way...and you'll need to spank your naughty girl's yummy bottom and let me know who's boss. Before you tell me to spread my legs, so Daddy can put his big cock in my tight pussy.

Prefer a Daddy in his 50's to 60's who loves to talk dirty and appreciates this fantasy and bbw's.

I think it wouldn't be my thing.

If you want something free with a little more quality control, OKCupid is free. Wasn't right for me, but it's too easy to nitpick when everything is laid out in front of me rather than starting with, "Nice to Meet you" or "Want to dance?" and going from there.

[PonyPotato]

blah

[Halx]

What a coincidence. I met Crompsin on there, too!

I swear you look different in heels and makeup.

Oh, it's official. I'm never drinking again.

...

OkCupid is pretty good, I'd say. You can tell who is real based on the number of questions and the quality of their profile / presence of pictures.

There are numerous dating sites out on the internet that deal with specific regions, specialized interests or hobbies (robotic republicans, motorcyclists, sports junkies, people named Cuthbert, videogamers), as well as the sleazy super-anonymous Craigslist jungle. I don't recommend CL.

[Shauk]

i've yet to meet any keepers on CL *shrug*

I tried to meet a few, but they all have dealbreakers, but then again I'm picky.

ya, in the OP it would have been good to know what CL and W4M meant. I notice that the next post after Psycho Dad's explained CL at least.

If you're looking for something a little more...er...vigorous, I've heard of people having good luck with squirt.org. It's more the hookup side and less relational, but that's about what you'll get on on craigslist too.

[MLTHED]

Thanks for the helpful suggestions....any more would be much appreciated.

[JStrider]

HAHA I've bought and sold some stuff on CL
looked around in the personals some... wouldnt ever consider contacting one...

A buddy of mine has attempted to get some from CL... I think its all been fruitless tho. but he's on here so he can talk about it.

[thesupermikey]

i have both responded to and posted ads on CL. Yes, there is a TON of span, but when you read enough ads, they stand out. With a good sized viewership, the mod tools seem to weed out a lot of the stuff.

Anyways the local CL page is lightly traveled, but i got a few good dates out of it, nothing special, but fun none-the-less.

as for the hookup section. A lot of that is spam, and not even worth a real look. Moderating that section is a losing battle.

That's not too new, the Something Awful forums have been making fun of it for at least six months.


PS, your friend is a nerd.

[fresnelly]

I have a CL story and it's 100% true:

I just sold my old stove

It was hot!
