Craigslist personals are a really toss of the dice. I've met a few women from CL. One of them we didn't click but we are good friends now and she makes the best Italian food on the planet. One of them was a fine piece of ass and I tapped it for a solid month before she flaked out on me. But I also have to confess, I've met three others who were nasty and I was happy to finish my drink and get the fuck out of the bar.

Craigslist sucks.For months I ran an ad looking for a masculine black female with a blue toenail polish fetish and I got nothing. Nothing!

Craigslist is great for advertising stuff you want to sell, but the personals section is for the bottom-feeders of the online dating world.

Hey My uncle back in Pittsburgh had great success with this CL ad.



Woman to sit in my bath tub full of noodles, wearing a bathing suit.

Date: 2009-04-29, 1:39AM EDT

I will pay you $1 USD to sit in my bathtub full of noodles while you wear a one piece bathing suit.

I will not be home, nor will anyone else while you do this.

I will leave the key for you, and you will sit at your leisure.

I will require at least a 5 minutes stay.

A neighbor will watch the front door from across the street and using a supplied stopwatch, will time your entry and departure.

Please supply your own footwear.

The noodles will be cooked, and therefore slippery.

DO NOT bring any sauce. I will season the pasta after I return home prior to dinner.

Pretty much. I only went out with the couple girls I met once. One was really cute and a lot of fun, but we just weren't into each other. The others...

Well. There's a reason I haven't slept with someone I met on Craigslist.

A long time ago, I came across this really obscure Craigslist knock-off. I felt like I needed a shower after reading the w4m section. I wondered what kind of guy would post an ad there.

I've had some really good experiences from Craigslist and met some really good people. You just have to know how to weed out the dumbasses that type in all caps and have nothing of substance to say. If a guy emailed me pics of himself naked, shirtless, or in front of his car that was an automatic 'delete.' I put some time and effort into the message I placed, and if I got one sentence in return 'delete.' I actually met my boyfriend on there - we've been together 2.5 years. A few friends have had some good luck also.

Give it a try! Err on the safety side though. I'd never meet someone at my house or at their place until you go out a few times. I went out on many dates with fun people. Sometimes we hit it off, sometimes we didn't but it was all entertaining and proved to be an easy way to meet people.

Edit: It does have some "bottom feeders" but also a lot of good people who are just at a loss for where to meet others. You get a feel pretty fast for who is legit and who isn't. Patience in sorting through it all will pay off!

Criagslist is great if you are 400lbs and looking to meet the same.

As most have expressed the people on craiglists are people who are god ugly, no money and mentally unstable. If that's what you want then go for it.

Craigslist really is hit or miss. Message back and forth a few times to see if the person sounds sane and down to earth, if so meet at a bar. Either you hit it off or you finish your drink and get out. I met a couple real hot girls one that led to my current relationship and one that was purely a great sexual relationship. A lot of shy good looking girls meet guys through craigslist.

The girls I know that are using craiglists are mildly hot and would be great if you already have herpes or any other STD.

I've met several women on Craigslist. You get all kinds. Beautiful, ugly, weird, fat, nasty, good, and just plain evil. It's an equal opportunity dating pool. I met my x-girlfriend there. Everywhere we went out, she was always the hottest girl, or rarely, the second hottest girl there so there are good opportunities. But it's a lot of work. And I hate writing more than one or two lines when most of the times you won't even get a response. And yes there are women who are just looking for sex. But that's even harder to score. I've been lucky over the years but have cut back on my CL usage. Anyways I've had better luck with CL than with the dating sites. But I think for most people it's the other way around.

Or if you are half way decent looking you could go to any local bar, buy girls drinks, get them drunk and you'll score every time.

Here are the most recent pics of women looking for man on CL for Wash DC. I can only image what the women without pics look like.

I'm surprised to hear that people are finding others on Craigslist, unless every case listed above was a while back. It seems 90% of the responses (and ads) are spam.

I think we can cut to the chase and say some fat ass wants us to look at his\her craiglists ad and response.

You just ignore the spam, it's very easy to identify. There are alot of big people on the site, but there are alot of good looking ones, I'd recommend it to anyone. I realize I may be a success story though.

Craigslist personals weren't always all spam. In 2005 and 2006 I was able to get about 1 date per week for a long time using Craigslist. I met some hot ladies and had some good times. Also got the CLAP from one of them - sucked.

If nothing else, I picked up a lot of good stories from all of it, but I understand now that very few of the ads aren't spam.

You are seriously scrapping the bottom of the barrel if you are using craigslist.

Worst places to meet someone...

- Craigslist
- A bar
- Church

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
http://bible.cc/1_corinthians/13-11.htm

This whole "where and where not to meet women" thing is completely subjective. We may as well be discussing restaurants. For every haughty asshole that says, "only losers use Craigslist," there's another snooty prick that refuses to eat at McDonald's. Whatever.

I work with a lot of people, and I don't date people I work with. Having a hobby is one of the best ways, but my hobby is about 90% working alone, 10% public interaction. I've met couples that met in a bar, and I've met couples that met through their church.

Putting an ad on Craigslist is essentially no different than using any dating site on the internet. Not everyone lowers their standards the moment they get behind a keyboard.

--------------------------------------------------------------
13 4826 0948 82695 25847. Yes.

blah blah blah blah blah blah

Online dating is for the socially inept and those with self esteem low enough to where they only feel comfortable talking to the opposite sex behind the keyboard.

It doesn't matter whether a person uses chemistry.com, eharmony, perfectmatch, etc. Craigslist just happens to get the dredges of the internet, as witnessed by the unwholesome individuals defending it with such zeal.

Is it any different than getting set up on a blind date by your buddies? At least online you can sort of see if you have anything in common before you meet up.

Shoot, a relative of mine met his wife through a online site...one of those "post a pic and let people evaluate my attractiveness" sites. Been married 7 years, 2 kids a live happily out the west coast.

We're not saying craigslist it's going to hook up two social disaster fat fucks. We're just saying if you have half a brain and look somewhat decent, you would be fucking crazy to use craigslist. Craigslist is for ugly fucks with no social skills.

You shouldn't have to weed out fat fucks in the first place.

The stigma of internet dating is passing quickly. In spite of the fact I haven't done it in quite some time, I'm sure defending it makes me sound like a total loser. Whatever.

Bars and churches were cited as bad places to meet women. I'm not the only person in the world who won't date someone I work with. I'm not currently going to college. My "hobbies" generally take place in bars. Is meeting someone on the internet any more lame than speed dating? Are you supposed to lurk in a grocery store or library, waiting for a cute girl to come along?

When you respond to an ad or a profile and try to initiate communication, it's actually a lot harder than real life. In a bar, I can sit down and strike up a conversation with a girl about her clothes, what's on TV, something I overheard her say, etc. You don't get that with internet dating; you get judged by your written word alone.

It's convenient in that you can get to know someone a little bit before you waste the time and money actually going out with them. It exposes you to far more people than you would ever normally meet in real life. Not everyone is interested in going to "the club" with their "bros."

Is internet dating any more degrading than this:



I say, "No. No it's not."

Craigslist has more than its fair share of the un-pretty, but saying that internet dating in general is strictly for losers and bottom-feeders is just stupid, especially considering the number of people that use the fucking internet.

Flame on!

Again, how is that any different than The Shade Tree on any given Friday/Saturday night? It's not. They used to the same thing about bar hopping - i.e. "barfly".

The online stigma is associated with the fat Numa Numa type guys that sit behind a computer 24/7. That makes up a much smaller percentage nowadays.

I understand what you are saying, and it isn't any lamer than speed dating, blind date, etc.

Unless you are living in the middle of Utah, there is plenty of opportunity to meet the opposite sex in an area like this. Forbes listed the DC area as one of the best locations for singles, it didn't mention depending on the internet to write up a profile and cross your fingers that the person you meet is decent.

It sounds like your relative with the successful relationship was a minority though, most online dating profiles are pretty amusing to read.

As far as meeting someone at work, I can't speak for everyone here, but there are some pretty good looking women at my office in their 20s and 30s. They have great personalities, intelligent, make good money, blah blah blah. I can't imagine the shitty, dead end, low paying job one must have to say there are no dating options at work.

Stop being a passive/aggressive little bitch, eesh. You don't like me, hold me in the utmost contempt, blah blah blah. We all get it. Jesus Christ, my sperm could cure cancer, and you'd call me pathetic for jerking off ten times a day. Get over it.

So wait, a rough-looking woman that can buy her own beer is preferable to meeting a cute girl on the internet and buying her a beer?

Not worth the effort. It's either someone else that doesn't like you, or someone trying to stir things up between us. Either way... not worth the effort.

Attractive women have too much self-esteem to use dating sites. Men...okay, they get lonely, search out for the opposite sex. Women? If they have two tits, a straight nose, and a full set of teeth they should have no problem meeting someone in real life.

Internet dating is for people that need to fill a void in their lives.

I think that yawning baby picture needs to be put to bed. Sure wish whoever is posting that could verbalize their opinions.

Don't worry, I'll save you the trouble.

As I told you when I tried keeping this petty flame war in private messages, I haven't called you pathetic once.

You are the only one calling yourself pathetic. It's some serious psychological shit right there.

It doesn't quite evoke the essence of what I'm trying to get across here. I am a Picasso of trolling, you know, and accuracy is paramount.

I think I understand... Thanks for temporarily breaking character to explain the situation to me.

Any particular reason for uploading the picture every time instead of hotlinking it?

Aren't you supposed to have permission from the publisher before you hotlink?

I think that's just a server issue. They don't want to waste their server's resources just so someone on a different site can view a picture.

If you hotlinked to one of the many locations on this server, it would actually be more efficient than wasting Cary's space by uploading the same picture over and over again. You only need to upload the picture once.

Sure, that could be true. But almost everyone you meet is a "government contractor". I still don't even know exactly what that means. But I'm god damn sick of hearing it, that's for sure. The next person to tell me they're a "contractor", I'm gonna punch in the face.

It's DC dude; government is the main employer here by far.

It's like going to LA and hearing everyone say they are a writer or an aspiring actor, or going to Manhattan and be surrounded by stock brokers and accountants.

Lot of spam and not very good looking women for the most part. There are some decents every once in a while. I hooked with 2 women from craigslist, but this was a few years ago. One was a one nighter, the other became a regular hook up buddy who was the best sex I ever had and gave the greatest deep throats in the world. She wanted a committed relationship though, and I wasn't about to actually date someone who I met with the original intentions of just hooking up. Can only imagine how many dudes she hooked with from there before me, thus the motto - always wear a rubber.

thus the motto - always wear a rubber.

Or, buyer beware.

Wonder if this would work for a married, older guy?????
