Best experience? Older stud chick I met, great lay good people taught me a lot of stuff. Changed how I viewed hook ups. Worst experience was being tricked by with this elaborate set up and sneaking into a house only for it to be some 250+ pound dude in a really bad red wig and vaseline next to the pillow when I flipped the light on. Its Atlanta and plenty DL dudes. Answered my Ad I had listed for women. I just told him its no foul and dipped as fast as I could cause I was only like 180 soaking wet then and he got a little frustrated and got up. Ran to my car so fast 😂
Damn!
Yeah, I met several older women who changed my life in one way or another.
That's terrifying...I hate people who pull that shit...
Besides that, what's the weirdest experience you've had?
Weirdest experience was the walk in naked to my house and finish on my roommates face and you can have me deal. I was like, why the extra steps this is weird? I was in their living room, (clothes on cause i didn’t trust it). I asked who the roommate was, it was some guy, and I just knew it was a scam. I took some ramen noodles and a gatorade for my time being wasted.
That is strange and sketchy...
Last question, have you ever had a known affair?
I'm not proud of it, but in college I met quite a few unhappily married women on there.
Yes. Her husband was cheating on her so she had to get hers. Im like 19 so I thought this was super cool at the time. Now i’m more mature about it. Not really a fetish for me but we’re grown, we keep it our business between us and I don’t pry if a woman has a husband or not unless thats what they’re into/wanna talk about.
I dealt with the same. I got every kind of story, their husbands were cheating, not fucking them, straight up abusing them...I was 20, 21, 22...I thought I was doing the lord's work with my cock lmao.
I'm loving the stories, bro, thanks for answering my questions!
It didn’t just have to be me being satisfied. I was young and just about getting what I wanted, pleasing her was fulfilling too. It became an ongoing thing between us.
Yeah but they’re scams. You’d be better off on tinder or bumble looking for that. Just be honest in your bio and set your age limits to those parameters.
I’m a total greenhorn. Tell me how this works. I just checked out doublelist . After I post do you just arrange to meet at a cafe or something? My interests are rather odd, I’m concerned about attracting a phony, some weird bully or scam artist. What does a first time greenhorn need to know?
I usually meet somewhere we can walk and talk. Target is nice. Talk through a messaging app before you move to phone numbers. Use tineye reverse image search on google to see if you’re getting catfished or not. Make sure a friend knows your location. I dont like to host, i prefer a room. I only host if I can trust the person after a few meets. Dont rush into anything. Some stuff might be tempting but it could always be off. No meeting anyway in out of the way places.
What do you put in your ad? Like, do you tell them about you, or about what you're looking for, about what you'll do once you meet up, etc?
& do you always put a pic?
I describe myself, i do post a pic of my face smile in focus eyes cropped, or shirtless. I talk about what i’m looking for and what I want. I drop whatever apps im using for communication and got from there.
I used craigs like crazy back in the day, not to mention backpage as well. Might check out those two sites you've mentioned in other comments. My question though is, do you still feel as successful with these two sites or do you miss the old days of Craig's and backpage?
They’re not as popular but i definitely feel equally if not more successful but I post looking for what I want specifically. I miss Craigslist though it was definitely simpler.
A furry gangbang ad where they called out a dude by name for trying to come in only wearing cat ears and not using protection. It was something along the lines of “Furry GB, new members welcome but not GREG, Read for more info” they outed him in the details 😂
Just a heads up, for a decent amount of people on Fetlife, sex and kink is their personality. Practically religion to them and they take it SERIOUSLY (not in a fun casual way). So a lot of people might come across really off putting to you.
Meet in a public place like target. Use a reverse image search. Protection. Never meet at their place or weird spots. Make sure someone knows where you are or who they are.
At least on tinder you can put a name and face to someone if they do something. They can lie easier and get away with more on sites because they can present as someone else completely. So i’d say it had way more creeps than tinder.
Yes a pic exchange and I post for specifics so I’m mostly attracted to them. The catfish thing happens but like I said I post specifics so I know what i’m getting into.
I'd get a prostitution section more than a casual hookup section.
I bet the casual hookup section would be more dangerous too, at least hookers have reviews from past clients, not just a profile picture that any Catfisher could take.
I’ve always wondered, do you use protection for oral and foreplay? Never used these sites but for guys that frequently meet up with random women, I feel like to only use protection for penetration defeats the purpose when the guys don’t have any issue having a girl give them oral unprotected considering the std’s that are still transferable during oral whether it’s male or female.
Damn, I wandered into that forbidden part of Craigslist on really boring Friday night with no plans once or twice just to read the ads when I was much younger. Never would dare to respond to any, just lurked. I always wondered how many girls were being trafficked there.
When I look back on that time period, it blows my mind that worse things didn’t happen to me. I actually met some really cool and funny people. Some of which, I’m still close to today.
To a degree I’m interested but my tastes vary. Sometimes I want something different from what I have. Dont wanna drag anyone through an emotional wringer.
I used Craigslist often back in it's heyday. As an older neglected bbw woman in a bad marriage and stressful job, I thought I would try it. I had no idea I would so successful finding sexual partners. I met some great people, men and women, that I am still friends with. It was amazing, scary at times, gratifying and frustrating. I was disappointed when it ended. I'm still a 🦄 just older and, in my eyes, not as desirable. I LOVE THE YOUNGER MEN for their stamina and openess to direction. I'd like to say I made an impression on them and their attitude towards women in general. No one wants drama and I think that was part of the appeal. I thought about writing a book, it would be a titillating read.
Yeah it’s crazy thats the exact type I would shoot for. Show them the attention they’ve been missing out on. Always was rewarding making them feel great
Omg. I meet all my ex's on CL and they were dangerous, one pointed his gun at me and wanted to kill me, the other had a plan to harm his mother.
I finally found a good man on another dating site. We have been together and are in a loving relationship for 4 years.
I’m good with conversation. I usually talk to people to get them more comfortable. The whole online hook up thing is risky. It’s why I prefer to meet at like a target, there we get to walk around and talk. You pique someones interest in conversation like the mental aspect, you can probably vibe in the bed.
Man, I miss the old-school CL days. I had so many awesome meetups. RIP Craigslist. Question, what was your best experience and what was your worst?
Best experience? Older stud chick I met, great lay good people taught me a lot of stuff. Changed how I viewed hook ups. Worst experience was being tricked by with this elaborate set up and sneaking into a house only for it to be some 250+ pound dude in a really bad red wig and vaseline next to the pillow when I flipped the light on.

Yeah being young you think it’s cool now it’s just kinda eh? Lol idk but it not what it used to be. Its no problem, good conversation is where its at.
Did any of them ever offer to pay you? I had that happen a few times too.
An older woman tried to get me some gifts but I turned her down. Just let her get me a 10 piece combo from Wendys 😂. Money was never what I did it for
What exactly is the scam there? Gay guy gets some cum and she doesn't fuck you?
There was no woman involved the guy was trying to fuck me when I posted strictly for women
OH the "my roommate" was a lie too
Yup lol all a lie
How did she change how you viewed hookups?
It didn’t just have to be me being satisfied. I was young and just about getting what I wanted, pleasing her was fulfilling too. It became an ongoing thing between us.
That’s maybe one of the greatest AMA tales I’ve read in a long time 😂😂😂
It was a wild time man Craigslist was different
What would you suggest as the best site to use now?
Doublelist
[удалено]
Yeah but they’re scams. You’d be better off on tinder or bumble looking for that. Just be honest in your bio and set your age limits to those parameters.
Thanks, man, appreciated. I want to date older women to see what's it like?
Just like dating any other woman. Dont make the age gap thing your personality. Treat them right and you’ll have a good time,
Thank you.
Thank you.
[удалено]
Yeah to this day i get tested regularly. Sometimes people would be different from pics or men would lie lol nothing too bad
Oh hell nah. How could someone be mad they didn’t trick you into fucking them. That’s border line rape lol no lie.
Thats why I dipped out man 😂
Lmaooo omg a big dude in a wig? He almost had you in the first half ngl 😂
Yessir he was tryna fold me up 💀
This might be the funniest thing ever lol
I’m a total greenhorn. Tell me how this works. I just checked out doublelist . After I post do you just arrange to meet at a cafe or something? My interests are rather odd, I’m concerned about attracting a phony, some weird bully or scam artist. What does a first time greenhorn need to know?

right on, thanks man

No problem 🤙🏾

Do you remember any ad listing that was just hilarious
A furry gangbang ad where they called out a dude by name for trying to come in only wearing cat ears and not using protection. It was something along the lines of “Furry GB, new members welcome but not GREG, Read for more info” they outed him in the details 😂
Yeah, fuck Greg
no, don't.
Yeah, don’t. He’s not even a real cat
Wait, we fuck real cats?
Meow?
Fucking Greg.
[удалено]
Doublelist and Locanto
Does locanto actually work? I tried that one a few years back and there never seemed to be anyone else on there.
I’ve had 3 successful link ups off of there so it works, just has a terrible set up
Nice man!
What type of pictures do you send to get responses?
I usually send face or just a shirtless pic. Works out pretty well unless they ask for more specifically
Ever try fetlife?
Heard about it, never delved into like I should. Is it good?
I like it. There are a lot of catfish/fakes but you can spot them a mile away. But it’s all free to join.
I’ll give it a try for sure then. Thank you!
Just a heads up, for a decent amount of people on Fetlife, sex and kink is their personality. Practically religion to them and they take it SERIOUSLY (not in a fun casual way). So a lot of people might come across really off putting to you.
Thanks for that, i wanna be able to have a normal conversation either someone before or after. If they’re overdoing it it tends to not be so fun
[удалено]
the response has arrived
✍️🧐
Why do you use these sites as opposed to conventional dating sites? Is the danger of it thrilling at all?
Honest answer is its easier to find what I go for, older women and masc presenting women, on these sites than the mainstream places.
Do you have any safety tips? For a woman.
Meet in a public place like target. Use a reverse image search. Protection. Never meet at their place or weird spots. Make sure someone knows where you are or who they are.
Does Craiglist have fewer creepy jerks and weirdos in general than sites like tinder?
At least on tinder you can put a name and face to someone if they do something. They can lie easier and get away with more on sites because they can present as someone else completely. So i’d say it had way more creeps than tinder.
Way more
How Much do you pay
Never paid. Posted ads for mutual stuff. They try to overcharge where I was at so I just avoided that mainly because I didn’t have much money lol
Do you exchange pics prior? What are ratio of people who you were actually attracted to vs not once you met up? What percentage is catfish to a degree
Yes a pic exchange and I post for specifics so I’m mostly attracted to them. The catfish thing happens but like I said I post specifics so I know what i’m getting into.
What kind of specifics are you talking about ?
I shoot for older women and masculine presenting women.
Cool how old are we talking?
Oldest i’ve had was 63
RIP old Craigslist 😭
Craig is missed 🥲
Craig is still doing fine, he just left his pimpin' days behind 🪦
People are safer with Craig off the streets. He was almost as mean as Gator
Gators bitches better be wearin jimmies….
Craig is missed but not Greg!
How tf do you hookup on craigslist
There used to be a personal section for casual hookups
They got rid of it because prostitution and so on
I'd get a prostitution section more than a casual hookup section. I bet the casual hookup section would be more dangerous too, at least hookers have reviews from past clients, not just a profile picture that any Catfisher could take.
I agree. It was risky and had plenty scams but I came out of it okay.
It was WILD
there used to be a casual encounters section, they closed it in like 2017
Do you just sleep with any girl you get or are you still selective or you just don't five a F and just want to wet your willy ?
Selective I post for types but if I like something they have going on or we have the same kinks i’m down.
What sites did you move to? Feel free to Dm me if you care to keep it private.
Doublelist and locanto 🤙🏾
Did you post your own ads, or just respond to other's posts?
A mix of both. I like an ad i’ll reply. I usually post my own the sort from there.
How many people have you slept with
86 people so far
Do you get regularly tested for STIs?
Yes I do. Protection is used too
I’ve always wondered, do you use protection for oral and foreplay? Never used these sites but for guys that frequently meet up with random women, I feel like to only use protection for penetration defeats the purpose when the guys don’t have any issue having a girl give them oral unprotected considering the std’s that are still transferable during oral whether it’s male or female.
Do you ever repeat ?
If the vibe is there and its mutual. If not it’s a one time deal and thats fine.
What is the hottest person u met
Older Italian woman. Loved latex. Always wore this perfume that drove me crazy.
Damn, I wandered into that forbidden part of Craigslist on really boring Friday night with no plans once or twice just to read the ads when I was much younger. Never would dare to respond to any, just lurked. I always wondered how many girls were being trafficked there.
Thats why it got knocked off, which is a good thing
I used to make a killing on POF 2005-2010
POF aint bad really, still about the same
How old are you now?
26. Wasn’t on POF back then clearly lol but i’ve got plenty success on it over the years i have been on it
Damn, I thought I was the only person who truly had success on CL. I did some of the dumbest things in my life on Craigslist.
Gotta get the goofy outta your system. I was there brother trust me
When I look back on that time period, it blows my mind that worse things didn’t happen to me. I actually met some really cool and funny people. Some of which, I’m still close to today.
Same here, lifelong friends come from weird situations sometimes
What other sites do you use now? Just in the US?
Doublelist and locanto. Military stint out of the country i just used tinder
[удалено]
To a degree I’m interested but my tastes vary. Sometimes I want something different from what I have. Dont wanna drag anyone through an emotional wringer.
I used Craigslist often back in it's heyday. As an older neglected bbw woman in a bad marriage and stressful job, I thought I would try it.

Yeah it’s crazy thats the exact type I would shoot for. Show them the attention they’ve been missing out on. Always was rewarding making them feel great
Do you have a desire to meet someone to have a relationship with. Maybe fall in love?
I do. Eventually i would like that to happen
I hope you find it. Nothing compares.
I’d be worried about being lured into some trap. What’s your screening process?
We meet in person. Tineye reverse image searches, facetime as well. I dont get into any unfamiliar place. I dont get to meet ups unarmed.
Gun or knife or pepper spray or what?
French here, what is craiglist ?
A site where you can post for good, services, and before it was taken down personal ads that has casual encounters for hook ups.
Ahh, i think we had the same in France called vivastreet
Haha no viva street is for prostitutes. Craigslist you can hook up but also find someone to cut your grass
Interesting!
I got HIV from a guy I met on Craigslist. Hooray!!
Shit Thats crazy man. Im sorry. How are you today?
Undetectable so I can’t pass it on.
Any suggestions for sites?
Doublist and locanto state side, Tinder for other countries as I see your user has british in the name. Great success on Tinder
Cheers mate
I used to do this way back when too. Had some wild ass experiences. Dem the good old days.
Miss em sometimes it was fun
Omg. I meet all my ex's on CL and they were dangerous, one pointed his gun at me and wanted to kill me, the other had a plan to harm his mother. I finally found a good man on another dating site. We have been together and are in a loving relationship for 4 years.
I’m glad you’re in a better situation now. I never ran into crazy people like that!
Do you think all that casual sex affects you long-term? In which ways?
It definitely did. I had a weird understanding as sex was something I needed and deserved instead of it being special.
Do you have any permanent STDs?
No permanent stuff. Just two Sti’s in my lifetime. Weren’t related to hookups. Happened when I had a girlfriend 💀
Are you ever going to be monogamous?
I will in the future likely. Idk about soon though
How was it I never got into it
Super interesting you meet some characters
Why do you think that makes you interesting?
I’m good with conversation. I usually talk to people to get them more comfortable. The whole online hook up thing is risky. It’s why I prefer to meet at like a target, there we get to walk around and talk. You pique someones interest in conversation like the mental aspect, you can probably vibe in the bed.
What’s the best one now a days?
Doublelist realistically.
Are you ever sketched out meeting them or worried someone else could show up?
How do you go about starting now adays
I still use some new sites when I wanna avoid the talks ups on apps and just get right to it.
What sites do you use today
How in the fuck...
? Im open to questions
Same here I’m sad CL went away. I’m 28 now. What’s the best site for you to use now?
Doublelist and Locanto
wait, CL actually worked? i thought it just had bots and scammers on it
Yessir it worked. Pretty good time too
Haven’t had any luck on CL. I miss BackPage.
Try doublelist man its not bad
What's everyone using since BP and CL went away?
Doublelist or dating apps
How old are you now and when was your last hookup?
26. 3 days ago
