WonderKid Posted July 11, 2012 Posted July 11, 2012 Anyone ever tried it? I had a few friends do it. And the things people post in the dating section cracks me up.
KathyM Posted July 11, 2012 Posted July 11, 2012 Only desparate people use Craigslist. From what I've read, it's the cesspool of internet dating. Too many dysfunctional people on there.
Author WonderKid Posted July 11, 2012 Author Posted July 11, 2012 It is crazy on there. Really I don't see why they just don't use a dating site, but I guess they feel more embarrassed about dating sites than CL. I only know one friend that actually met a legit person off there. That place is scary.
g450 Posted July 12, 2012 Posted July 12, 2012 Yep tried that one time. Only met dysfunctional women on there. They didnt just have issues, they had entire volumes of drama in their lives. And they tried to suck me into it. Luckily I know how to swim. Now I only go on CL for motorcycle parts LOL.
Author WonderKid Posted July 12, 2012 Author Posted July 12, 2012 ^^^ It is hookers on there! And they actually be on that site for customers! LoL If you post anything about money for sex, you'll get spam but some EMs from them too.
SunandMoon Posted July 12, 2012 Posted July 12, 2012 ...Is it bad that immediately thought of being stabbed and lying dead in a ditch somewhere when I read the title?
Author WonderKid Posted July 12, 2012 Author Posted July 12, 2012 That is crazy people do that on there. When my friend went for his date, they emailed first for a few days then texted. When they decided to meet it had to be public. And she brought a friend along so I had to be the wingman. It was basically a blind date deal. Something I'll never do again. hahahaha

Maybe my friend got lucky because the woman he met was cool and alright. I saw a lot of posts on there in the w4m area, and they seem very depressing and intimidating. And some of them post the same thing. They want a country boy and a Christian. Which I don't even believe they're Christian themselves but hey--who am I to judge? *shrugs*
g450 Posted July 13, 2012 Posted July 13, 2012 Well I will say that most of them there are honest. I want SEHHHHEEEKKSS! Husband wont mind, hes deaf and blind. 2
Forever Learning Posted July 13, 2012 Posted July 13, 2012 This thread has me cracking up! Dead in a ditch, blond wigs in Dennys at 4am, deaf and blind, hookers, volumes of dysfunction. Lordy that is a cesspool!
Author WonderKid Posted July 13, 2012 Author Posted July 13, 2012 I saw a post on there that said, I NEED A MAN I am single and I have 4 kids! I need a man! 420 friendly and must have pic for a reply LoL I was like dayumn! This site is something else!
Kcelleste Posted July 14, 2012 Posted July 14, 2012 I've done it before out of boredom and curiousity. All I can say it that the people from Craigslist are very very interesting. And yes I did meet some deranged ones. You have to be a expert at weeding out the people who aren't worth your time or you will regret it.
D87 Posted July 14, 2012 Posted July 14, 2012 It is exactly the same as any other dating sites and I met a couple of decent girls on there. 1
ja123 Posted July 15, 2012 Posted July 15, 2012 I think you need to use caution on any dating site, but CL in particular. However, if you use judgment and discretion, then you can find some nice and smart people on there. They do tend to have a wild and subversive streak, though. I met a university professor ... he turned out to be a swinger. At least he was honest about it! 1
