​Forget the diet, have an affair!

krle3b7tgpoutubwq4xd

If you’re on the hunt for a lover, don’t diet! Affair-seeking men prefer voluptuous women.

IllicitEncounters.com the UK’s largest married dating site has discovered the key attributes that cheating men look for in a mistress.

The affairs site surveyed 1500 of its male members who are actively pursuing an affair to discover what they seek in a potential lover. The study reveals the majority of men prefer bigger ladies over women who are slim or toned.

Curvaceous came on top with 34% of the vote, beating Petite (24%) and Athletic (14%)

The findings also revealed Blue to be the most popular eye colour (27%) and men also preferred Blonde’s over any other hair colour (29%) for their mistress.

Sex appeal is naturally important to anybody looking for a sexual partner, what is interesting is that a large proportion of men are looking for a curvaceous, blue eyed, blonde. With 72% of the men surveyed in their 40s, perhaps they are rooting their fantasies back 20 years ago with films like Basic Instinct starring Sharon Stone, popularising the blonde bombshell archetype of a female.

Harry a member of the site said “I think most men are naturally attracted to curvy girls, they’re head turners. Ultimately this is about sex and curvaceous woman have sex appeal – no man can truly say he doesn’t find it difficult not to look at a woman with big hips and a voluptuous décolletage. Personally, I think big women are sexier and more confident – far more enticing then a stick insect, let’s be honest. My wife is quite the opposite, slim and conservative – but I’m not with her for the sex.”

Claire Page spokesperson for IllicitEncounters.com said “It’s important to know that the male age demographic of affair-seekers is typically older, and these men will have been growing up when curvy women were celebrated, Marilyn Monroe, Cindy Crawford, Pamela Anderson – to name a few.

Curvy women are more aesthetically pleasing and look healthier, who would want Keira Knightly when they can have Shakira – the proof is in the pudding!

Its time women stopped dieting and starting embracing their sexy natural figures, anyway, everybody knows bigger women bounce better in bed – and sex burns calories.”

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!”

Teachers are the Recipe for a Happy Marriage!

emnfytq6yojzyux5vnw2

New research released today by Britain’s largest married dating site, IllicitEncounters.com, shows that teachers are the best ingredient for a happy marriage! When 1,000 IE members across the UK and Ireland were asked ‘What do you do for a career?’ the lowest percentage of them (0.5%) said they were teachers. As well as that, when asked ‘what job would you like the mother/father of your children to have?’ the highest answer was ‘teacher’ (27%), beating ‘CEO’, ‘salesman’, ‘actor’ and ‘engineer’.

The top six professions the 1,000 respondants had were:

  • 1)CEOs or business owners (243 votes)
  • 2)Lawyers (213 votes)
  • 3)Politician/local councillor/senior civil servant (205 votes)
  • 4)Banker (129 votes)
  • 5)Doctor/Surgeon/GP (106 votes)
  • 6)Personal trainer (104 votes)

Five out of the thousand who said they were cheaters said they were principles (2 men and 1 woman), taught maths (1 woman) or drama (1 woman).

So why exactly are teachers 486% more likely to stay faithful than CEOs or business owners?

“There are many reasons why teachers are more likely to commit to a marriage than other professions,” said psychologist Lucy Redford, “Unless they’ve made a horrific career choice, teachers are usually very good with children. In the classroom they can see the effect of arguing or separated parents, and because most teachers are empathetic, they won’t want to create the same turbulence in their own home. They’ll more than likely have the ability to discipline children because it’s their job (both in school and at home). It’s for this reason that teachers have a high respect and commitment to a marriage and won’t risk fracturing it.”

Claire Page, spokesperson for IllicitEncounters.com said “What I find most interesting about this survey is that people seem to have good instincts, because despite the financial benefits, most people didn’t want the father or mother of their children to be CEOs, and CEOs in this surveys ranked the least faithful profession.”

The top five reasons people said they wanted their children’s other parent to be a teacher were:

  • 1)They’ve great summer holidays.
  • 2)They’re patient – teaching teaches teachers patience.
  • 3)Teachers have good and predictable hours.
  • 4)Teachers are protectors. They don’t tolerate bullying.
  • 5)They are incredibly influential. Teachers shape futures.

​Friday the 13th – you won’t get lucky on the most unlucky night of year…even if it is on Valentine’s Eve!

mstbewd5masca95y46cm

New research released today shows that 67% of women won’t go on a first date on Friday the 13th, even if is it Valentine’s Eve. The study, by IllicitEncounters.com the UK’S largest married dating site, asked 1,500 female members if they would go on a date tomorrow – Valentine’s Eve, Friday the 13th and a staggering 1,005 women said they wouldn’t, even if it was with someone they really liked!

The 33% who said they would go were asked ‘If you went on a date, how would it affect you?’ and the results were:

1)At the back of my mind, I’d think the relationship would be doomed (43%)

2)I wouldn’t have sex in case it was bad (25%)

3)I would notice anything bad happening and put it down to Friday 13th (20%)

4)I wouldn’t have sex in case I got an STI/pregnant (18%)

5)It wouldn’t affect me (14%)

“There are many different reasons men will ask a girl out this Friday the 13th” Claire Page, spokesperson for Illicit Encounters said, “The good restaurants are booked up by now for the 14th February, so if you ask a girl out last minute, you might have to settle for Valentine’s Eve, not Valentine’s night. Another reason men are booking restaurants, hotels and theatre outings tomorrow is because Groupon, Wowcher and LivingSocial deals aren’t valid on Valentine’s Day. The businesses don’t need to use discount websites because they’re going to be so busy on the 14th, so men who want to get a bargain will book for the 13th instead.”

Psychic Sally Morgan said for her, Friday the 13th is actually a lucky day – “Personally I have always found the number 13 to be good for me, I was born at number 13 and lived and grew up at number 13, if you read my book ‘My Psychic Life ‘ you will see I talk about the ghosts that were in this house. I met John my husband on Friday 13th, my eldest grandson was born on the 13th and for me the 13th ( even Friday 13th ) has always been a positive day, I feel we make our own ‘luck’ and so often when we perceive a situation as being ‘bad luck ‘ it’s looking at that situation as our glass half empty.”

Psychologist Lucy Redford said “If the main reason men are booking dates on the 13th instead of the 14th is to save money, this won’t be well received by women in the slightest. Being a miser isn’t attractive to anyone, especially on Valentine’s Day. Everyone wants to feel important and avoiding the international celebration of love for the sake of saving money tells a women she’s not worth the financial difference. Women are especially competitive about things like: where they went and what they got for Valentine’s Day so, in a way, yes, on this occasion Friday the 13th could prove unlucky for men across the UK!”

Accountants Make Best Husbands…to Cheat on!!

ctw4c74kizhcvlhwll9n

New research released today by Britain’s largest married dating site, IllicitEncounters.com, shows that women cheat more on accountants than any other profession! When 1,500 female members across the UK were asked ‘What does your husband do for a career?’ the highest percentage of them (13%) said they were accountants.

The top six reasons these women started affairs were:

  • 1)The excitement has gone in our marriage (563 votes)
  • 2)We’ve lost our connection (233 votes)
  • 3)The sex drive has gone in our marriage (214 votes)
  • 4)We spend too much time apart (211 votes)
  • 5)We spend too much time together (196 votes)
  • 6)I don’t feel special to him any more (83 votes)

So why exactly do so many women want to marry an accountant but can’t stay faithful?

“Stability, both financial and personal is the number one thing people seek in marriages,” said psychologist Lucy Redford, “The typical accountant is seen as stable, reliable and responsible. Consciously or sub-consciously, all women seek these characteristics in a mate. The number one reason people stray from marriages is because excitement is replaced by routine, and what was once seen as a spark becomes a chore. Every relationship requires work, but it still needs to be worth working for.”

Claire Page, spokesperson for IllicitEncounters.com said “Finding out your partner had an affair isn’t necessarily a bad thing. Oftentimes it brings to the surface the unspoken tensions and problems couples have and when people cheat and are caught, it usually brings about better communication and clears the air.

“Having said that, getting caught shouldn’t be something our customers worry about. Discretion is our number one priority and in thirteen years of being in business, we have yet to hear of a customer who was caught through a membership with Illicit Encounters!”

The top ten reasons the 195 female members said their accountant spouses were good husbands were:

  • 1)He is reliable
  • 2)He earns a good wage
  • 3)My family like him
  • 4)He is good with our children
  • 5)I feel safe when I am with him
  • 6)He’s a good decision-maker
  • 7)He’s intelligent
  • 8)He takes the fear out of money matters
  • 9)He’s a stress-reliever, and helps me make sense of confusing matters
  • 10)He’s ethical and plays by the rules

On the good side, if you’re an accountant and your wife is straying, she won’t let the affair break her marriage, because only 3 in the 195 cheating women said they would consider leaving their accountant husbands!

​Red Tuesday: The Top Dumping Day of the Year is Four Days before Valentine’s Day!

f8dlbm8jpkk6ilnakcou

‘Red Tuesday’ is the top dumping day of the year, just four days before Valentine’s Day, according to new research released today by IllicitEncounters.com, the UK’s top married dating website. 3,000 people were surveyed on Illicit Encounters and one in five – 22% – had broken up with someone the week before Valentine’s Day. Dumping someone electronically is also rising in popularity with most people breaking up with someone over their phone.

The top six ways people chose to dump their partners were:

  • 1)By text (31%)
  • 2)By phone call (28%)
  • 3)In person (27%)
  • 4)Over Facebook (8%)
  • 5)By Whatsapp (4%)
  • 6)Over Twitter (2%)

The period between Christmas and February is always a popular time for people to spring clean their love lives as well as their homes, but there is a sharp increase in people breaking up with their partners four days before Valentine’s Day.

22% of people surveyed had admitted to breaking up with someone the week before Valentine’s Day, with the majority (473 of the 660) saying they made a clean break four days before the festival of love.

“There are many different reasons people make such a drastic decision so close to Valentine’s Day,” said psychologist Lucy Redford, “Some people realise how much they don’t love someone with the romanticism in the air; some buckle under the pressure of committing; others think they can probably do better if they’re not happy and because Valentine’s Day is a national celebration, it’s hard to ignore. For a lot of couples, the 14th February brings them closer together and makes them realise how in love they are. For others, it’s a reminder of the cracks in their relationship. A lot of people cannot bear to be false and celebrate something that doesn’t exist, so they break up beforehand. It might seem quite cruel but it’s very emotionally damaging for a person to be in a relationship that’s not giving them anything positive. Staying when it’s not working can be a lot more toxic in the long run than going your separate ways.”

“Last year we had a record number of new members joining the site the week before Valentine’s Day,” said Claire Page, spokesperson for Illicit Encounters, “This is without a doubt due to the amount of people who have been dumped before Valentine’s Day and don’t want to be alone on the 14th, as well as the inflation of people who want to make a change if they’re in a stale relationship. We all have a fundamental need to feel important, loved and valued. If you’re not happy, do something about it – have an affair!”

New Year, New You? Women are resolving to make 2015 the year of the Affair!

jxtsy4rr7y0rndwbiykd

The New Year marks a time for change and for thousands of women it marks a time for self-renovation. However in 2015, there has been an unusual growing trend for over 3,500 women across the UK – their New Year’s Resolution is to have an affair!

Research from extra-marital dating site IllicitEncounters.com shows that more and more women are seeking affairs online as a means for self-improvement. Since the beginning of January, the site has gained over 3,500 female members – a record in the site’s 11 year history.

These new female members are looking for short, passionate love affairs, which they hope will restore their self-worth and put their marriage or long-term relationship into perspective.

Spokesperson for IllicitEncounters.com Claire Page said, “There has been a clear change in attitudes toward adultery in the last few years, but 2015 indicates something much bigger.

“Women are coming to us with more awareness about their needs than ever before. From their profiles, you can see that our new ladies are looking for something more than just a quick fumble – they are looking for fulfillment, they expect something life-altering.”

Claire said that celebrities like Gwyneth Paltrow showing understanding towards people having affairs, rather than just condemning them, is part of a large change in society, in thinking an affair can be beneficial.

Tiffany, 39, from West London, has been a member of the site for just over a week, “My decision to join was made out of frustration. Over Christmas, I spent over 3 weeks confined with my husband, who, after 12 years of marriage, only pays attention to me if I block his view of the television. I want to feel young and sexy again, I want to feel like a better woman. As my partner has made it clear he is incapable of helping me out, I have employed a more drastic measure.”

IllicitEncounters.com have taken on extra staff to deal with the record number of new sign-ups received in the last month, and now have nearly one million members across the UK.

The UK’s Leading extra-marital affairs website IllicitEncounters.comis the UK’s largest and longest running dating site for married people.

With This New Calendar Women Can Have A Different Married Man Every Month!

dxgmbbwfnkuxlqeddi3p

In a bid to attract new female members to married dating site IllicitEncounters.com, the married men of the site have been featured in their very own 2015 calendar. With nearly 1 million members in the UK the dating site is hoping showing off some of the their male members will encourage new female members to join the site.

The site, which exists to help married people find an extra marital relationship is celebrating 2015 by producing its first ever calendar. The calendar features real male members of the site, who have carefully concealed their identity whilst showing off their physique.

Spokesperson from IllicitEnconters.com Mike Taylor commented; “We have been helping married people find new relationships for over 10 years now, and we wanted to find a way to show off the great guys we have on the site. Because our members are looking for privacy and discretion it is hard to find ways to show off how great or members are. That is where the idea for the calendar came from, showing our members in a way which protects their identity but also shows women the vast array of men who are on the site.”

Mr July (24HoursFromTulsa) added: “I am looking for a little excitement outside of my current relationship, I still feel youthful and I want to share that with someone who has the same lust for life that I have. That’s why I joined Illicit Encounters and wanted to be in the calendar.”

The calendar follows research from illicit encounters that revealed over one third of people believe they have married the wrong person and over sixty per cent of people wouldn’t think less of a friend if they where revealed to be having an affair.

The Calendar is available to buy from www.calendarcheats.com and will make the perfect gift for someone looking to spend the year with exciting new men.

Is Renewable Marriage The Answer To UK’s Marriage Crisis?

z24ybg8ro3oxuw5farm7

The UK’s leading affair dating website is seeking a parliamentary debate about the future of modern marriage. With the high rate of divorce, an increase of people choosing not to marry and hundreds of thousands of unhappy spouses joining dating sites looking for affairs, IllicitEncounters.com is campaigning for the UK government to introduce renewal dates on marriages.

The controversial proposal has been put forward by the dating site whose purpose is to help unhappily married people find other unfulfilled married people to have affairs with.

A new independent study conducted by Atomik research revealed that over one third of people believe they married the wrong person. In addition, further research conducted by IliicitEncounters.com discovered over 59% of married people feel the marriage system is outdated and nearly a third would support a renewable marriage lasting between 5-8 years.

The site has written an open letter to both members of parliament and religious leaders. The letter is proposing a review of the current marriage laws and hopes to introduce a time limit on the validity of a marriage contract. The site is claiming that its purpose would “spare incompatible couples the expense of lengthy divorce proceedings and the social stigma and emotional trauma consciously uncoupling can cause.”

Spokesperson for the campaign and IllicitEncounters.com Mike Taylor commented; “Marriage should be just like a passport or driver’s license. If individuals are not interested in renewing it, then it expires. If something isn’t working people don’t just live with it. People are more than willing to change their car or washing machine if it has stopped working, why would they stay in a marriage that isn’t working if they weren’t being forced to stay due to financial burdens?”

IllicitEcounters.com maintains it is a pragmatic solution to solving the infidelity epidemic and stopping people who are trapped in unhappy marriages having to look outside them for fulfillment. These days, as Mike Taylor points out, “Those who can’t afford a divorce just suffer indefinitely.”

The site is asking supporters to write to their MP to ask for their support and are providing an open letter on the campaigns website:  www.yestorenewablemarriage.com you can also sign the petition direct at epetitions.direct.gov.uk/petitions/71446

The campaign expects opposition from both the Church of England and the Catholic Church who have been at the forefront of opposing Illicit Encounters proposals. However the site welcomes the healthy debate as it has large amounts of members from both faiths, and is certain they will be writing to their church leaders to voice support for the campaign.
