Plenty of Fish?

Plenty of Fish = Plenty of Crap

i met my girlfriend of two years on that site...we were sooooo close to getting married even. Sadly, we are no longer together but my experience on Plenty of Fish was a good one. I say go for it!

Let's see, there are the married men who say they are divorced, the men with addiction issues, the ones looking for just sex, and then there was the one who gives me a great story to tell.

The guy had had bone cancer as a kid. They took out his knee and installed a rod so he could walk. He had trouble driving (right leg) so he asked me to pick him up. (All true by the way.) I knocked on his door, and he opened it wide. He was standing there buckass naked and it was NOT a pretty sight.

my aunt used plenty of fish. . . she got her PLENTY of booty calls rofl.

POF = Plenty Of Freaks

I tried it a few years ago and had a decent experience. I "met" quite a few guys on there but they didn't always lead to actual dates because I like to get to know someone a little bit through email/phone first and so some guys would lose interest if you weren't interested in meeting up right away. In the end I met my current BF (of nearly 2 years) on another dating website though.

Its just like any dating site, you'll find a lot of creepy/weird/strange guys mixed in with the good/sweet/nice guys and you just have to go through the process of finding out what side they fall into. I would always meet people in a public place on the first date and never really had a bad experience other than the guy not turning out to be who he said he was a few times. Which is another point, be honest with your profile and post a recent picture. You'd be surprised how many guys don't and are obviously 5+ years older than the picture they used and fudge on their age. One guy said he was 30, but in reality was 40+ (I probably still would have gone out at least once with him because I tend to lean toward older guys but that big of a lie on the first date was a huge NO so it never went past that first date). Also don't be afraid to take a chance on a guy who might not be everything you think you want because you'll be surprised.

I know lots of couples that met online, including my sister who is getting married this coming Thursday! It can be a good way to meet people you might not have otherwise, just be realistic about it and have fun.

I met my husband on there. We have been together 2 years and married for 1.

Thinking about joining Plenty of Fish never tried internet dating before...but maybe I should, anyone any good experiences?

Also I need a username, any suggestions

I have met some great friends there. I have found that there are a number of guys that won't even respond to me because of my weight and it used to upset me but in time I realized these are not the guys I would want to date anyway. I wish you the best of luck if you try it. I'm still there and still making good friends.

Haha yup crazies galore is right...Alot of creeper girls on there. Pretty funny the messages i used to get on there lol.

I just joined, first women I message sent back "sorry not my type" thanks for letting me know lol

I have a job that makes it very difficult to get out and meet men. I did the online dating thing, both paid and free. I dated, went on some "booty calls", and kissed a heck of a lot of frogs.

I was ready to give up, and was fed up with the guys who just wanted sex, and not much else. I decided to do a search on POF for a guy who spoke Spanish, so I could meet someone, get dolled up and go on a date, and practice my Spanish at the same time. First guy I met? My future husband.

We were married 8 months later, and have been married 4.5 years. He is loving, hard-working, smart, and rocks my world.

I would recommend being safe (meeting in public places, not revealing personal info until you are sure he is not a psychopath), and having fun with it. It is just dating. Enjoy yourself. And maybe you will get lucky and meet your own awesome dude, as I did.

Good luck!

I was against online dating and happily single but my friend talked me into making a profile just for fun. I had lots of creeps message me and I used the block function many times. But, one guy stood out and I married him He was the only one I gave my phone number too, only one I gave my real name to. Our first date was on Valentine's day 2009 and we met online, and it's worked out amazingly. I'm very happy.

My username was Chickybabe and the year I was born, it worked well for me! Also, back then we had to use a tag line, my husband and I quoted the same song but different lyrics in our profiles, we still think it was meant to be

Ugh. Plentyoffish.....plenty of *kitten*!
Met my psychotic ex on there. Never again!

Met my fiance on there.
