Affair Seekers Make Passes at Girls Who Wear Glasses.

It was once believed that men don’t make passes at girls who wear glasses, it turns out the saying is rather outdated as more and more people find the bespectacled look attractive.

According to new research conducted by IllicitEncounters.com the UK’s largest extra-marital dating site wearing glasses can increase your likelihood of having an affair.

The study surveyed 800 of its members and found that 74% of affair-seekers wore glasses compared to 69% of the general public*

The study also found that 82% of members thought glasses looked attractive.

In addition those surveyed were asked how much they spent on glasses and found that a woman spends £120-£150, whereas a man would only spend £50-£90.

It is interesting to note that more of the cheating population wear glasses then those that don’t. Perhaps the fact that a large proportion of men and women find glasses attractive means that those who wear glasses have more sexual interest than those that don’t – making them a target for someone wanting to live out a fantasy with a bespectacled lover.

Fredrick a male member on the site said “I love a woman in glasses. It makes an otherwise tame girl look a little wild and powerful – glasses immediately make someone look more confident and intelligent. Smart teamed with sexy is unbeatable. Every man’s thought about sleeping with a girl in frames, there’s just a certain je ne sais quoi about the whole thing”

Claire Page spokesperson for IllicitEncounters.com said “Er, yes please! Men in glasses are divine, Ryan Gosling, Brad Pitt, David Beckham? Hello! It’s interesting to note that more of the cheating population wear glasses then those who don’t – with such a large proportion of people agreeing that glasses are sexy, it is hardly surprising.

Glasses are becoming a sex symbol – women who wear glasses feel more powerful and seductive, and men are obviously lapping it up, we’ve all heard about the secretary fantasy. Someone wearing glasses may also be more tempted to have an affair as they will potentially receive more attention than someone glass-less! Let’s just say the days of 20:20 vision being hot is well and truly not, give me a four-eyed god any day”

Techies are logging on to married dating sites!

xbkkaqgztlk0baipdyhv

IllicitEncounters.com the UK’s largest married dating site has seen a 12% increase of IT workers joining the affairs site to seek out a lover.

The affairs site currently has 13,200 active users who work in Information Technology, with a spike of 12% in the last year alone. Interestingly the year before IT workers using the site were on the decline by 5%.

The most significant rise of techies signing up to the site is seen in London – possibly coinciding with many of the hot new tech start-ups popping up all over East London, creating a tech-savvy culture hub of likeminded individuals. Most notably Silicon Roundabout aka Tech City in Shoreditch, here many major tech companies reside; it is also a very sociable part of London that has a plethora of bars and clubs.

Perhaps the common IT guy is now far removed from being cooked up in a stuffy dark room with only his high spec screens for company, and is instead placed in a high rise, air conditioned tech hub with plenty of places to seek out further entertainment once the office closes for the day.

Sam, a 36 year old Software Specialist who uses the site, said “My life and job is very orderly. I have a 9am-6pm job although I often work late, I have a coordinated family life, and work is financially rewarding and very stable. I do feel under pressure to do well at work and provide for my family, and I feel quite anxious in proving for myself in day-to-day life.

It means when I do have some freedom, I want to do something a little out of character – it’s exhausting always doing what is expected of you. I like to meet new and interesting girls to feed my need to learn and grow – it takes a very unique man to limit himself to one woman for their entire life. I guess I get the best of both worlds, tell me one man who wouldn’t want that?”

Spokesperson for IllicitEncounters.com Claire Page said ‘The IT guy used to be the janitor-looking creep who came to fix whatever computer issue you were having back in high school. That IT guy no longer exits, now he is a liberal, beard brandishing, and smart talking Mr. Cool from the tech department – and boy do we like to break our computers to have them come lean over and fix them! Why are more techies cheating on their partners? Simply because the World Wide Web has made it easier and more discrete, and nobody knows how best to cover up their tracks or clear their browser history then the IT guy!”

Adulteresses spend more getting ready for lovers than their husbands!

y6iuzuyqv6pa7ejs4np5

Women spend more time and money getting ready for an affair than on dates with their husbands.

A new poll conducted by IllicitEncounters.com the UK’s largest extra-marital dating site has found that on average women spend six times the amount of time and money preparing for a date with their lover than they do with their spouse having surveyed 2000 of it’s female members.

The findings reveal that the average time spent getting ready to meet their husbands is 30 minutes compared to 3 hours getting ready to meet their lover.

The average amount spent on preparing for a date with their husband was ‘£25 or less’ compared to ‘£150 or more’ for their lover.

Out of those surveyed 72% of women said they go to the Salon to prepare for their affair-meet.

Those who went to the Salon were asked what services they used and the results reveal getting a ‘Blow Dry’ as the top affair preparation with 63% of women opting for this service.

Sara a member on the site said “Why should I put in the effort with my husband when he can barely be bothered to get off his backside to take me anywhere. The most effort he’s ever put in is taking me to the local Indian restaurant we’ve been going to for the last 12 years.
My special friend on the other hand, he pulls out all the stops and takes me to the fanciest places, it would be embarrassing to not dress up – and he’s so complimenting, I wouldn’t want to disappoint him. ”

Claire Page spokesperson for IllicitEncounters.com said “Can you blame a girl? If you’ve been married for a long time and your spouse doesn’t really take you out very often, or is predictable in doing so – why would you put in that extra care to look good.

On the other hand, your lover is full of surprises, taking you to new and exciting places – of course you’ll spend more time and money looking pruned to perfection. Having an affair makes you feel desirable again so it’s only natural a woman will endeavour to look better than ever!”

Cheating Couples take to Budget Hotels for Illicit Encounters!

eybzj8z38pqtzwwatd8m

Cheating Couples take to Budget Hotels for Illicit Encounters!

A new survey by IllicitEncounters.com the UK’s largest extra-marital dating website has placed Premier Inn as the hotel most often used by adulterers.

The study surveyed 2000 of its members and found that an overwhelming 40% of affair seekers choose to book with Premier Inn for their rendezvous.

Second most voted for hotel chain was Travelodge (22%), and in third place Holiday Inn (11%).

The Premier Inn that was most visited by adulterers was selected as Premier Inn London Kensington Olympia Hotel.

Premier Inn is the UK’s biggest Hotel brand, totaling 690 hotels in Britain. It seems that quantity may trump quality over hotel bookings, with more deluxe hotels getting fewer overall votes.

The top reasons given for hotel choice were-

1.    Affordability
2.    Day room or early check-in option
3.    Facilities
4.    Anonymity
5.    Quality

Geoffrey a male member using the site who chose Premier Inn said “They’re readily available and affordable. You can also pay cash at the front desk on arrival, meaning I’ve not got to worry about a hotel springing up on my billing history.”

Louise a female member using the site said “I chose Premier Inn because it has a convenient location, close enough not to arouse suspicion but far enough to feel discrete! The facilities are great too, nice restaurant bar and great service. If you call ahead you can get early check in too, which lets you arrive unnoticed.”

Spokesperson for IllicitEncounters.com Claire Page said “The top cheating hotels are all within the budget bracket – of course affair-seekers don’t want to splash out for a hotel that they may only use for a couple of hours in the day. Premier Inn’s motto ‘Everything’s Premier, but the price!’ echoes the thoughts of adulterers who chose affordability as the top reason for booking. Being the biggest hotel chain in the UK helps, Premier Inn’s are everywhere and easy to reach making them a very obvious choice for an illicit encounter.”

Top Affair Hotels

1 Premier Inn 40%
2 Travelodge 22%
3 Holiday Inn 11%
4 Hilton 7%
5 Ibis 4%
6 Marriot Hotels 3%
7 Radisson 3%
8 Best Western 2%
9 Jurys Inn 2%
10 Crowne Plaza 1%
Other Various 5%

Stay Fit, Have an Affair

xsysc69rzmb1r9us7ikk

Adulterers tend to be healthier than those that remain faithful to their partners.

Statistics from the UK’s largest extra-marital dating site IllicitEncounters.com reveal that the healthier you are the more likely you are to have an affair.

The married affairs site screened over 500,000 of its member’s profiles and discovered that 88% of affair seekers don’t smoke and 25% don’t drink, with another 68% describing themselves as only light or social drinkers.

The research also discovered that 39% of members described their body shape as Slim or Athletic.

Only 8% of the surveyed described themselves as Cuddly or Very Cuddly.

With studies indicating that 60% of men and 45% of women will at some point partake in extra-marital sex* – these findings can link the type of person that will cheat with their general health and physical appearance.

Luke a member of the site said “The general consensus is that someone who cheats is going to be a philandering loser the likes of what you would see on Jeremy Kyle. Well, I can assure you I’m quite the opposite. I don’t smoke, I rarely drink, I like to keep in shape by working out on a regular basis. I guess – I need to get my kicks from somewhere, having a secret affair is what exhilarates me the most – it’s a high you can’t experience anywhere else in life.”

Claire Page spokesperson for IllicitEncounters.com said “Body image and confidence are interlinked; attractive people tend to embody a high level of self-confidence and are therefore more likely to be flirty and forward.

It’s evident that the calibre of people who choose to have an affair is high, I see good-looking and successful people sign up daily. Those of us that choose infidelity, tend to have a good exterior, happy life, happy wife – that sort of thing, an affair is merely an additional enhancement to an already fruitful livelihood.

It is only natural that people who work hard to keep in shape and remain healthy will also work hard to indulge in their sexual desires. I have found that members on the site associate the idea of having an illicit encounter as sexy – so surely it will only be sexy people that will seek an extra-marital relationship!”

Flirty Forties – The best time to have sex!

snia0fmemff07r2zpcf6

As The UK’s leading married dating site today hits 1 million members, IllicitEncounters.com is releasing a survey showing that having sex in your forties is the best period.

It seems quality trumps quantity when it comes to sexual satisfaction; the UK’s largest married dating site has revealed that our 40’s are the best decade to have sex, even though we’re having less of it.

The affairs site surveyed 385 women and 443 men and found that 37.4% of women and 34.5% of men believed that the best time to have sex was in their 40’s.

The next best age is 30’s with 23% of women selecting this age and 26.2% of men.

The study also concluded that men and women have the most sex in their 20’s with 56% voting for twenties to be the peak in their sex life with the majority of their sexual liaisons happening at this time. Forty’s faired significantly lower with only 12% suggesting that the number of sexual partners you have is less significant to the quality of the sex.

The main reason for those selecting their forties was that they felt more sexually experienced at this time.

This completely quashes a recent survey by Healthspan saying that most people have gone off sex by the age of 41. It seems those opting to have an affair experience a whole new lease of life sexually, and whilst they may have gone off their partners they have rediscovered the joy of sex with IllicitEncounters.com.

A female member on the site commented ‘‘I think women as they get older realise they deserve better sex and therefore they demand more attention’ with another adding ‘In my thirties I had small children and I was more committed to my domestic arrangements. Now in my forties I feel free and liberated. The kids are older and less demanding on me.’ However, men seemed to be a little more blasé with one member saying ‘To be honest so far, given the chance, I’d have sex all the time, at any stage through my life to date’

Spokesperson for IllicitEncounters.com said “The twenty year olds are having plenty of sex, but the forty year olds are actually enjoying it. Forty year olds have less hang-ups than 20 year olds, and a plethora of experience under their wing – they really know what they want out of their intimate life – and that’s great sex! The fact that many people said they felt a heightened sex drive at this time also suggests that our forties are the best time to rediscover our sexuality. By making better choices in sexual partners were able to enjoy sex with the right person, which plays a massive factor in how good the sex actually is. This is particularly significant when taking into account we have the most sexual partners in our twenties and yet people feel that sex in your twenties is the worst! We are in much better control over our sexual satisfaction the older we get, choosing quality over quantity!”
Woman chose Forties as the best time to have sex.

Men Chose Forties as the best time to have sex.

No to Businessmen, Builders voted best to build a relationship with!

t5alegebspvgh8ofvz3p

According to new research released by IllicitEncounters.com the UK’s largest extra-marital affairs site, women prefer Tradesman over white-collared workers.
The affairs site surveyed 1800 women asking them which occupation they would most like to have a relationship with. Out of 15 occupation fields, Tradesmen ranked top with just over a quarter of the vote.

In second place came ‘Arts and Design’ with 12% of the vote and third place Accountancy & Finance (7%).

Out of the 15 occupation fields Retail (1%), Hospitality (2%) and those working in the Public Sector (2%) fared the lowest.

The biggest difference between ‘Tradesmen’ and the other listed occupations is that their jobs are the most physically demanding. Perhaps those in the more mentally demanding jobs are less emotionally available because their day job demands a higher level of mental ability – leaving less room to enjoy this within their personal lives.

Those working in ‘Arts and Design’ coming second reinforces the idea that Artists are very emotive individuals that are able to immerse themselves in a relationship on an emotional level.

What is interesting however is that ‘Accountancy and Finance’ scored third. Finance workers tend to have significantly higher salaries – suggesting that women may subconsciously class money and power highly as people working in this environment are not particularly seen to exhibit emotional availability.

Sonia a 36 year old current member on the site said “Tradesmen for sure. They are cheeky and flirty and great banter. I much prefer the personality of a plumber or carpenter over some high flying executive who will only be seeing me to fuel his own ever-expanding ego. A businessman also spends all day talking or evaluating things at work, the last thing they want is to come home and talk some more. I think builders are less pretentious and more genuine in general. I imagine they would be physically fitter than someone stuck at their desk all day.”

Spokesperson for IllicitEncounters.com Claire Page comments “Tradesmen are constantly surrounded by men, which means that when they are in female company they’re going to put in a lot more effort. Tradesmen also seek more traditional qualities in a partner, someone that is nurturing and affectionate, therefore they need to be more emotionally attune to attract these sorts of women. An office worker on the other hand is constantly around females therefore they may put in a lot less effort having been surrounded by women all day. They also compete with dominating women in the workforce and will treat them similarly to their male counterparts; this tends to spill out into their personal lives where they may act emotionally detached.

Basic instincts play a huge part here too; we are naturally more attracted to the rugged handy-man over the meterosexual businessman. Women hardly fantasize over a skinny man grasping his suitcase on the way to work; we’re more likely to daydream over the muscular hunk fitting our new boiler!”

Hugo Boss – The Scent of a Cheat

rwlbsuj7qzl1u7dqtg0l

IllicitEncounters.com the largest UK extra-marital affairs site has revealed that more adulterers wear Hugo Boss than any other brand of aftershave.

The affairs site surveyed 2000 of its male members asking them what their choice of aftershave is, with Hugo Boss at the top with a 26% of the vote, suggesting that cheats can now be sniffed out.

In second place was Chanel Allure at 14% and third place Tom Ford (12%). Old Spice is also worth a mention, surprisingly 1% of members did opt for this ‘timeless’ aftershave, perhaps indicating that some men have simply not replaced their aftershave since 1936.

The site also polled the men on which type of smell is most attractive on a woman, and ‘Musky’ came on top with 25.40%, beating popular scents such as ‘Citrus’ (18.25%) and ‘Floral’ (13.49%). ‘Musky’ is a very animalistic smell, proposing that scent evokes very primitive instincts when it comes to levels of attraction.

It is interesting that Hugo Boss came in at such a high vote, perhaps affair seekers identify with it as a very masculine scent that is sure to entice a woman. What the winning three colognes have in common is that they are produced by very well known and long established fragrance companies which would appeal to many generations of men.

People tend to identify certain scents with each other. All too often that nostalgia kicks in when an aroma of someone you know hits you, and for a split second you think they might actually be in the room with you, right before you realise it’s somebody else sporting the fragrance. And now you may actually be able to smell a cheat.

Spokesperson for IllicitEncounters.com Claire Page said “Scent and attraction have a big correlation. We are also very unique about our idea of what constitutes a sexy aroma. Some people prefer classic spicy scents, others something a little sweeter – and now we know that affair-seeking men opt for the classic woody tones of Hugo Boss. I’m not that shocked, Boss does smell pretty fantastic on a guy, very manly. You have to remember, unfaithful men tend to be alpha-males and this scent perfectly matches a real life Boss. Just remember, should you catch a whiff of Hugo Boss on a man, he may not be the only woman you’re seeing. I also quite like that affair seeking men are enticed by musky scents on a woman, it is after all a very ancient ingredient in a woman’s perfume; the sense of smell is one of our most primitive instincts so it’s only natural a man would go wild for this carnal fragrance.

​Affairs Save Marriages and Cheating is on the Rise!

nteogy9us7dn4i7zhsag

The UK’s largest married dating site IllicitEncounters.com will this month reach a milestone of 1 million members, that’s over 5% of the married population (or one person in every 10 couples).

The website has contacted some of the original members that joined the site when it first launched 11 years ago.

The site polled 200 of the 482 people still using the site since joining in the first year 2003-2004. The study shows that in the 11 years since joining, 80% of the customers are still married to the same person.

91% of those polled said that they would recommend having an affair and two thirds of those polled said that the affair had had a positive effect on their marriage. The average number of affairs had over this period of time is 5 affairs and the average length of the affair is 8 months.

It is really interesting that so many original members are still using the site, and to have had on average 5 affairs means that people are actively seeking to date outside of their marriage. 91% of affair seekers would recommend having an affair, challenging the notion that people regret having an affair – quite the opposite actually!

IllicitEncounters.com was conceived in 2003 by entrepreneur Steven Lines, becoming the first extra-marital dating site in the UK. In the first year almost 14,000 people signed up to the website. 11 years on, sign ups to the site have not lost momentum with over 150,000 Britons joining in the last 12 months alone suggesting that adultery is very much on the rise.

Extra-marital dating sites offer an easier way to find and sustain a relationship. More people than ever are choosing to find love online and with IllicitEncounters.com it is no different.

Simon Francis CEO of IllicitEncounters.com said “We are delighted at the outcome of our 11th year in the dating game; we just couldn’t be more excited about the present. Monogamy is just not for everyone, and we want to deliver the best and most discrete platform for like-minded individuals to communicate with each other. The fact that after all these years we still have some of our original members using the site – that is a true testament to what we are doing and 80% of those are still married to their primary partner, a great indication that IE has kept many marriages together”

Spokesperson for IllicitEncounters.com Claire Page said “The modern man and woman simply need more in a world that is constantly developing and evolving. Online dating has revolutionized the way in which affair seekers meet. In the past an affair could seriously damage a relationship, however with everything becoming digitalised, infidelity can very much be a private affair between lovers and in some cases has even saved marriages. Many people have come back to tell us their encounter has rekindled their primary relationship – with one in three having said an affair has had a positive impact on their marriage.

On the flip-side, those involved in very toxic relationships with their spouse have even been able to find love on the site, with success stories often involving marriages between two affair seekers – the site really does cater to every need. Affairs in relationships are imminent; it is becoming ordinary for couples to seek more than one relationship to fulfill them, not a rarity.”

One in Three Affair Seekers Would Cheat with Someone ‘Off Limits’

hx07uueahz3rduvhmbu4

New research by the UK’s largest married dating site IllicitEncounters.com has shed light on why so many high profile celebrities are tempted into affairs with people who are closest to them. With a third of affair seekers admitting they would be willing to cheat with a husbands or wife’s close relative.

IllicitEncounters.com surveyed 2000 of it’s members posing the question ‘Have you ever been tempted to have an illicit encounter with your partners relative such as a brother or sister in law?’ Out of the 2000 members an extraordinary 34% members answered ‘Yes’.

Out of the members admitting they have encountered temptation with someone close to them, an astonishing 11% also admitted that they have first hand experience of dalliance with a spouse’s family member.

It is very interesting that such a large percentage of people have fantasized about being unfaithful with someone so close to them, after all it is entering very dangerous territory. Perhaps it is the thrill and spontaneity of doing something that is regarded as ‘forbidden’ that entices people to want to pursue something which is deemed taboo. The other shocking revelation is that 11% of members surveyed have had some form of casual contact with a close family relative – suggesting that this is not as uncommon as we are led to believe.

Julie from Norfolk, a member who uses the site said ‘It started with a kiss. My partner and I hosted a BBQ at our place. Everyone left and me and my brother-in-law helped put my husband to bed. Afterwards we decided to have one last drink on the patio, one minute we’re chatting, next thing I know our lips were locked and the rest is history. It was passion like I’ve never experienced before, that moment I realised I’ve been trying to suppress a desire that had been brewing for 10 years, and he admitted that he always had always a thing for me too’

Claire Page spokesperson for IllicitEncounters.com remarked ‘Everybody wants a taste of the forbidden fruit. Cheating with a husband or wife’s family member isn’t that unusual. Ryan Giggs had an 8 year affair with his brother Rhodri’s wife, and now were told that Sally Bercow has been at it with her husbands cousin! The ease is there, you don’t need to go looking for an affair – a potential lover is readily available. Though, to have a successful love affair – it’s probably a better idea to find someone that your partner doesn’t know.

I can completely understand how this kind of situation may arise, if your constantly faced with your husbands even hotter brother, how many times can you possibly stop yourself?

Spending a lot of time with someone you’re expected to suppress feelings for, sometimes boundaries can be a little blurred – mix that in with an insatiable longing and your heading for the adulterous train, all aboard!’
