Budgeting
I need to budget my adult play. I've joined a dozen personals sites but I haven't paid more than a total of $50 for my experimentation. Costs rise, it seems, as you deal with online dating services more oriented towards "play" rather than long-term relationships.
Still haven't decided if I'm going to pay the greater-than $20/month required to join Adult Friend Finder. If I did, I would be able to find out more about one particular adult male/female couple in San Francisco who have added me to their hotlist. Without paying I can't see their picture or read more than six words about them. But I can carry this notion around in my head that there might be a couple out there interested in doing something with me. What would that be?
Similarly, I still haven't decided if I'm going to pay the greater-than $20/month for alt.com, AdultFriendFinder's kinky sister site. If I did, I'd be able to find out more about the two 39 year old ladies in the Bay Area who have added me to their hotlists. Whew! Hot listing!
Until I figure out what my budget (and personal priorities are!) I will continue to add myself to the ranks of the free listed profiles on these sites, picking up phantom, unreachable winks, whispers and hotlistings. More pornography of potential!

Surprisingly enough, I found that part of the issue for members was there spending around sex. You wouldn't think of that off hand, would you?
