"Dating" is kind of a grey area, because usually it is meant for single men and women - and I have used it loosely. Anyways let's call it hook up sites.
Craigslist is dead - and Double list is full of fakes, flakes and non-serious people. So really I am giving up on Double list. I now want to explore another site that might have Real people (not bots), serious men and women to meet, and have sex with.

Questions:




What is / What are some of the best sites to meet men, M/M and M/F couples?
Which of these sites accept a pre-paid credit card (Cannot have it go on my regular card - for obvious reasons (I am a closeted).
What are the PROS & CONS of these site?
Is there anything else to be aware of?
Are there some precautions to be taken when registering or using these sites?
This may/may not matter - I live in Dallas metro area in TX.


I am seeking advice/info as some of you may have used these dating/hook-up sites as this one is not a site to hook up.

Thanks in advance- I'll keep you updated as they happen.

Why don't you actually go out and meet people?

Wow! How old fashioned! Such an old idea might just work!

That wouldn't work for guys like me who are totally in the closet about our love of dick.

I have to have a site where I can get someone to answer my ad, state specifically what I am looking for and be assured of total discretion. I need someone who is willing to message a little to get the ground rules agreed upon and then meet to talk before play.

I can't risk going to a gay bar or to hit on guys randomly.

Going out to meet people is fine. But.....

I’m totally in the closet too

DL and silver daddies have been the best for me. But between they guys looking for beat off material and those who can’t put mot than three words together, it takes a bit of work. Certainly more than meeting guys in person. But on the dl, that’s not an option.

I hate to say this but there is no such thing as totally assured discretion. But if you keep your security tight, it likely to be reasonably safe.

Meeting someone at s gay bar is not a a bad idea. There?s one downside: I?ve never been to one, abd wouldn?t know what to do, how to start a conversation, how to deal with someone that ?Hits upon you?..
Also what do you do if you ?get invited? to his place?


Finally, when one is closeted snd has a ?secret love? for cock, how dies the ?gay bar? scenario play out?

I've had good luck with sniffies and squirt. org. I've been a member of squirt for about 8 years and I've been able to meet guys wherever I travel. Just recently found sniffies and had several hits on it.

Does Sniffies and Squirt take prepaid debit cards?

You don't have to pay either one to join but I think they would take prepaid debit cards. I do pay for membership with squirt but not sniffies.

Craigslist was my favorite. When I was in the mood for dick, I'd post an ad and wait for replies to sort through. A4A is my choice now but is a distant second to the Craigslist experience.

Craigslist and later Doublelist are my go-to as well. The problem is I have to shift through 19 duds to find one viable partner.

As far as options go, sites like OKCupid and FetLife can sometimes be better for finding genuine people, though they do have a mix. If privacy is important, there are others like AdultFriendFinder and Tinder where you can also use a prepaid card. The main pro of these sites is that they usually have more real profiles, but the downside can be a bit of spam or bots, especially if you’re not careful.

One thing I learned from personal experience with platforms like seksiseuraa (https://tosituhma.com/) (which helped me meet like-minded people while maintaining privacy) is that using a separate email and being discreet with personal info can help a lot.
