Window Shopping

Window Shopping

It's what I call perusing the profiles on that Piece of Fish dating site. You can't really do it here, you can hover over the pics and see a preview, but unless you buy the golden crown your not gonna see shit. On Smells Like Fish you don't even hafta join, just go on as a visitor, click on the preview profiles and you are in! Then you can jump from profile to profile, you just can't contact them.

That's where the problem starts. I see something I like, someone I wanna touch, smell, talk to. So, I fill out a profile, nothing much, just enough to get in. Not putting up a pic though, just enough profile to get on and message her. So I can tell her she's looking good, that I like her style, that I want her to be the future Ex-Mc_justmc, or maybe gargle my unborn babies.

So, now I figure I've gotta put up a pic, just one, just to make it possible, this one isn't too much, well, this is a good one, too. In a matter of days I've got a full blown profile, a mail box full of "Howdy Doo's" and "How are you's" from women I have no interest in. Window shopping in my area isn't like "Macy's", it's more like "Flea Market". On Tuesday. By the 4th day I'm "Favoriting" women far enough away that an "Honest to God Meet" would be a very serious and far fetched thing.

Then I remember, I don't wanna date, I just want to "Window Shop". Everything's so much happier when it's "just for lookin' at". So, I delete my profile and go back to the world of the "dis-joined". Fantasies last so much longer like that.

Not that I have a problem forking over the dough-ra-me to get crowned here, I just don't feel like calling the bank when they decline the charge. Once they told me it was because the site's billing location was Kitts Island. Another time the lady told me she wouldn't authorize a payment to an "Service". I asked her," What kind of service do you think I can get for $24.95?" crickets. I don't like the "Puritan Police" "policing" my purchases. So, I can forget that masturbator I was gonna buy from "Adam & Eve". And that subscription "Pipe Dreams" is just that..... If the "Red Light District" in Amsterdam had a "Drive Thru Window" I could pick up something "to go".

Do you "Window Shop"? Does your bank "patrol" your purchases?

I have a credit card that I exclusively use for on line purchases. In the ten years I have been on here, it has never been denied. And right now I am getting the "Crown" for less than $8 a month

“ gargle my unborn babies”. Lol. You kill me.
I do window shop. I never heard of a bank declining a purchase unless the card is in default.

"gargle my unborn babies"

Literally laughed out loud. That is hysterical!

No purchase police at my bank. Though, i do worry that someone i know at the bank will see my adam and eve purchase listed...it's a small, local bank.

I'm currently getting that offer, too. The only way I've been able to get around the bank guards is to use an electronic check.

Right? The "offshore" thing I can understand, but the whole "escort" conversation really pissed me off. I guess that's what you get when you deal with a small bank chain in the Southern Baptist belt.

This little bank chain has pulled some pretty odd crap over the years, but I like it because when I pull in the drive thru they know me by name, so I don't hafta drag out my ID. If I pay with electronic check it always goes thru...

Whoa there window shopping gunslinger. you just can't contact them I'm on Pieces of Flotsam, I don't pay a dime, and I've contacted quite a few women there. And, women who have not paid have contacted me. Actually, most have been ones who are here on the A*F*F.

When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro.

The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.

Sure, I've contacted without paying, I'm talking about contacting when your NOT signed up. I like to just go on as a visitor and look around. I'm sneaky like that.

Get another bank. If your going to post a pic I like this one. Each dating site from the sound of it sucks yiu in until you have to pay money. Good luck. I like window shopping cans in here you never know what you will find when you can’t sleep. hugs V

I do want to change banks, but contacting all my auto-draft collectors is such a pain. Cans? As in butts?

No, I went back and re-read my post. I wasn't very clear. I should have said I went on as a visitor.

I was on POF for a few months and felt like it was mostly People of Walmart.

Then again, I've also had no success on "regular people" Match or "hipster" OKCupid. I think it's time to pack it in, but I will miss the window shopping.

I agree with your "Walmart" feelings. I've joined and quit so many times it's ridiculous, but then I get bored and start sneaking around, then one thing leads to another ....

My bank went through a phase of "patrolling" my purchases. Every time I would buy gas at a particular location, they would shut off my card. A couple of times they deleted it and had to send me a new one. What a pain in the ass with the bills set up to pay thru my card! Seems they were being overly cautious because of card reader scams in some other part of the city. Never a problem buying toys online, but gas?? Whoa...not so fast!
I've tried window shopping at POF. That's about all the site is good for since no one wants to meet.

Hmmmm....I know I left that wand around here somewhere!

Resetting the bills is the main reason I'm not changing banks. We've had a good amount of card reader theft here but I rarely use my card in person. I prefer to pay cash. No trail. POF was fun when I 1st joined in 2011, now it's a place for looking at pics.
