I got a message from a man on AdultFriendFinder one night. That isn’t my thing, so I considered not responding to the message, but I believe in politeness. I opened the message and the author claimed to be a woman using a friend’s account to send messages. I looked at the profile and was 100% confident that it belonged to a man in his 40s that lived 30 minutes from me, but decided to give the message the benefit of the doubt.
I replied back with my concerns and suspicions; they responded back a few days later explaining that they were for real and sent a few photos as ‘proof.’ She explained her story to me suggesting that she was a recently divorced mom of two, just found her own apartment, was a few years older than me, and looking for sex. Her next door neighbor told her about AFF and had a paid profile, so he let her use it to browse for guys. I was the first one that had replied after numerous attempts. I let her know that, that was probably because most straight men just ignore messages from single guys.
