Scoring through
the Internet, and looking for something interesting to write about, I came
across this website that caters for – you guessed right, married men and women
who like to embark on an affair. The site, aptly named “My Secret Affair” caught my attention and I decided to check what
this was all about. So I enrolled as a member – not that I needed an affair, as
I’m happily single – I just want to find out what kind of people would join
such a site. The first thing I noticed while signing up was that they offer
free membership for both men and women.
No sooner did I get into the member’s area, I started getting ‘virtual
kisses’ by male members online – virtual kisses are messages of interest sent
out by members before they try and make contact. Some even sent me messages
introducing themselves and wanting to chat. I checked out their profiles and
was surprised to find some of them have also inserted photos of themselves.
Most of the members I checked appear to be quite normal people you may
otherwise not suspect if they sat next to you in the tube. Some even run
successful businesses of their own, and say they’re either looking to rekindle
passion, or overcome stale partnerships by trying a different partner. Some of
course, are there just to have some fun. The same with female members too –
they all seem to be genuine and normal people. The site has all the features of
any standard dating website, for messaging, chatting, sending kisses and adding
people to your favourites etc. In addition, they also have an administrator
online to help out other members online.
I got chatting to
Katie, the administrator who was online at the time, she disclosed that she’s
online whenever she can, shuffling between her daily duties and her 2 year old
son to answer any questions members may have, or to act on any complaints. She
says all member profiles are carefully reviewed before they’re allowed in to ensure
they’re as authentic as possible, and that the enrolling members know what
they’re getting into. Says Katie, “We go through each profile manually, so we
can weed out brief, incomplete, and ‘dodgy’ profiles where men pretend to be
women and vice-versa. We also make sure people don’t use the website for
selling their services – we want this site to be a safe and secure place, which
enable members to express themselves in complete confidentiality. We discourage
some members, normally men who try to join looking just for sex. This is not a
sex-dating site, and we don’t want this to become one.”
Asked why they offer free membership while
similar sites charge a small fortune for the same privilege, Katie admits,
“We’re offering free membership for a limited period to create interest and
increase membership. Even when we do decide to start charging, it will be
considerably less than what other sites charge for the same service. And we
don’t intend to start charging a fee at least for the next 3 months.” I apologised
for joining the site, wished her good luck and asked if I could check back
again to see how it worked out – so, watch this space. This
site is only for the residents of
