Yes! Yes! Yes! 68% of women admit faking orgasms – and almost a third of men, too – according to new study

* Men or women who are cheating are much less likely to fake it when they are with their illicit lover;
* Main reason both sexes fake it is to spare their long-term partner’s feelings because sex was taking too long;
* Women are eight times more likely to fake an orgasm with a long-term partner than with a new love;
* Half of women (54%) and 36% of men say there is nothing wrong in faking it;
* Four out of ten women (42%) said they found it easy to fool a lover into thinking they have climaxed;
* Results are from a new survey of 1,000 people by IllicitEncounters.com – Britain’s leading dating website for married people
Almost seven out of ten women have faked an orgasm – and nearly a third of men, too, according to new study.
It found that 68% of women and 28% of men have pretended to climax with a partner.
Half the women surveyed (54%) said they had faked it because the sex was taking too long and they didn’t want to hurt their partner’s feelings.
Other reasons women gave for pretending were they found sex boring (37%), not in the mood (36%),  too tired (35%),  they had drunk too much alcohol (28%), their partner was new and could not satisfy them (16%), they struggle to climax through intercourse (15%).
Sparing a partner’s feeling was the main reason men fake it – chosen by 22% of those questioned, followed by too much alcohol (20%).
One in ten men said they had faked an orgasm during a one-night stand after realising they had made a mistake.
The results come from a new poll of 1,000 people by IllicitEncounters.com, Britain’s leading dating website for married people.
It found that women were eight times more likely to fake an orgasm with their husband or long-term partner than with a new lover or someone with whom they were cheating.
Men were three times more likely to pretend with their wife or long-term partner than with someone they had just started dating or having an affair with.
Half the women questioned (54%) said they saw nothing wrong in faking a climax because to reveal the truth would cause more harm.
Fewer men (36%) saw nothing wrong in faking it.
Four out of ten women (42%) said that it was ‘easy’ to fool men into thinking they have climaxed.
Only 12% of men said they would find faking it ‘easy’.
Actress Megan Ryan is probably responsible for the most famous faked female orgasm in movies in the scene in Where Harry Met Sally where she
explained how easily women can fool men by faking an orgasm while eating in a busy diner.
IllicitEncounters.com spokesman Christian Grant said: “It is very clear from these findings that there are a lot of women having rubbish sex with their husbands and long-term boyfriends and faking it to spare their feelings.
“It is easier to do that than confront the deeper problems in a relationship.
“Perhaps what is more surprising is how many men are faking it, too – largely for the same reasons as women. They put on an act because their marriage or long-term relationship is stale  and they are going through the motions when it comes to sex.
“All IllicitEncounters.com research shows that couples enjoy their best sex right at the start of a relationship when things are still fresh and you are both excited to be trying something new.”
IllicitEncounters.com has more than one million members in the UK.
Male members are mostly white collar professionals – earning an average of £54,000 a year.
Women tend to be younger than male members and they date more frequently – averaging three dates a month to men’s two.

Shame of Thrones: The Top 5 Biggest Cheats In Game of Thrones Revealed!

Shame of Thrones: The Top 5 Biggest Cheats In Game of Thrones Revealed!

•    Cersei Lannister, former Queen of Westeros, has been crowned the most adulterous character in Game of Thrones
•    She was followed by her twin brother Jaime and first cousin Lancel, whio finished 2nd and 3rd respectively
•    The characters were judged against several criteria, including whether they were caught and their prominence in the show
•    ‘Shame of Thrones’ is brought to you by IllicitEncounters.com, the UK’s leading dating website for married people

War, politics, betrayal, and in this instance, adultery. Game of Thrones explores a variety of serious themes and topics, and with its sixth season having just wrapped up, a team of experts at IllicitEncounters.com, the UK’s leading dating website for married people, looked back with a fine toothcomb on the show’s most adulterous characters these past six seasons, ranking them accordingly.

Several criteria were considered, including the socioeconomic and political implications of the affair, whether the participants were caught and the prominence of the persons involved.

The top 5 are as follows:

Number 5 – Renly Baratheon 

Occupation: former self-proclaimed Lord of the Seven Kingdoms and Protector of the Realm. Now deceased.
Had an affair with: Loras Tyrell
When: seasons one & two
Caught: yes, by his wife Margaery
Consequences: not much, Margaery didn’t seem to mind
What the experts say:

“A gay man forced into marrying a woman for the wrong reasons – you feel for Renly a little bit. However, he wasted very little time cheating on Margaery, and with her brother to boot.”
Number 4 – Shae

Occupation: former prostitute and handmaiden. Now deceased.
Had an affair with: Tywin Lannister
When: off-screen in season four
Caught: yes
Consequences: strangled to death by Tyrion Lannister
What the experts say:

“Given Tyrion’s enormous popularity among fans, many felt for him when he found out that Shae had had an affair with his father. It is his father’s involvement, followed by Shae’s brutal murder, that puts Shae at number 4.”

Number 3 – Lancel

Occupation: member of the religious movement, the Sparrows
Had an affair with: Cersei Lannister
When: seasons one & two
Caught: yes, by Tyrion Lannister, but he eventually confessed
Consequences: post-confession, he becomes a key member of the Sparrows, turning on Cersei and the Lannisters in the process.
What the experts say:

“The Lannisters certainly like to keep their affairs close to home, and Lancel is certainly no exception. It is the implications of his confession that cement his position as number three.”

Number 2 – Jaime Lannister

Occupation: Lord of Casterly Rock and head of House Lannister
Had an affair with: Cersei Lannister
When: season one
Caught: yes, by Bran Stark
Consequences: he pushed Bran out a window
What the experts say:

“Involved in an incestuous, adulterous relationship from the very first episode, and directly paralyzing one of the Stark children as a direct result, Jaime has earned second place.”
Number 1 – Cersei Lannister

Occupation: former Queen of the Seven Kingdoms
Had an affair with: Jaime Lannister and Lancel
When: seasons one and two
Caught: yes, her affair with Jaime was seen by Bran Stark, and both she and Lancel confessed about their affair
Consequences: performed a walk of atonement through the streets of King’s Landing as a result of her affair with Lancel
What the experts say:

“From episode one, Cersei was committing adultery. It was on-screen, it was kept within the family, and the implications were significant – from Bran’s paralysis to Cersei’s walk of atonement.

Cersei is quite easily the most adulterous character in the series, and we’d be stunned if that were to ever change.”

Blondes may have more fun – but brunettes make the better lovers, according to a new survey

  • They are more adventurous in bed and like sex more;
  • But blondes are more likely to cheat;
  • Nine out of ten of us (91%) say that a sense of humour is a big factor when choosing a lover.
  • Men really do think about sex more than women – with 59% admitting it is on their mind several times a day, compared to just 45% of women.
  • Results are from a new survey which tested the truth of well-known sexual sayings by IllicitEncounters.com, Britain’s leading website for married people
Blondes may have more fun, but brunettes make the better lovers, according to a new survey.

They are more adventurous in bed and like sex more.

Almost six out of ten people (58%) say brunettes are better in bed.

The results are the same for men and women – just 16% chose blondes, followed by lovers with black (12%) and red hair (9%).

Four out of ten respondents (42%) say brunettes are more likely try new things in the bedroom.

And just fewer than half those polled (47%) also say that brunettes are the most sexually voracious.

The results are a resounding victory for brunette beauties such as Kate Beckinsale, Emily Blunt and Natalie Portman over blondes such as Scarlett Johansson and Cameron Diaz.
They are from a new survey of 1,000 people by IllicitEncounters.com, Britain’s leading dating website for married people.

Blondes may not be best for sex but they are top when it comes to cheating.

Just over half those polled (54%) said blondes are the most unfaithful, followed by brunettes (26%) and those with black (12%) and red hair (8%).

The poll tested the truth about some of our other well-known sexual sayings.

You CAN laugh someone into bed.

Nine out of ten of us (91%) say that a sense of humour is a big factor when choosing a lover.

And a quarter of women (24%) say they would sleep with a man who is funny even if they aren’t attracted to his looks.

Don’t judge a potential partner’s prowess in bed by their moves on the dance floor.
Three-quarters of women (75%) and 63% of men say their best lover was a terrible dancer.

Most people aren’t swayed by money when they are looking for a partner.

More than six out of ten of us (64%) say income is irrelevant, though a third (33%) admit it is a factor but not the main one.

Just 4% of us say wealth is the ultimate turn-on and that money can buy you love.
One saying which appears to be true is the fact that quiet people are more sexually voracious.

More than a third of us (36%) say this is the case most of the time and 56% reckon it is sometimes true. Just 9% say quiet people are also shy in the bedroom.

Men really do think about sex more than women – with 59% admitting it is on their mind several times a day, compared to just 45% of women.

Christian Grant, spokesman for IllicitEncounters.com, said: “There is no doubt that blonde women get more interest from men on dating sites.

“But they are not likely to make the best lovers and they need watching carefully because they could be dating someone else at the same time.

“This new research from IllicitEncounters.com shows that brunettes might be the best options if you want to have fun on a date – and a great time in the bedroom.”

Most of IllicitEncounters.com’s male members are white collar professionals earning an average of £54,000 a year.

Women on the site cheat more than men – enjoying three clandestine dates a month, compared to men’s two.

Men With Big Feet Are More Likely to Cheat!

  • Men with a shoe size of 10 or over are at least twice as likely to cheat on their partner, compared to those with a shoe size of less than 10
  • The most common shoe size for adulterous men was 10.5
  • Many famous celebrity cheats, including Bill Clinton and Tiger Woods, sport a shoe size of 10 or over
  • There was no correlation to be found between adultery and shoe size when it came to women
  • The research was conducted by IllicitEncounters.com, the UK’s leading dating website for married people

Having big feet means you have a large c… chance of having an affair. IllicitEncounters.com, the UK’s leading dating website for married people, surveyed over 1,500 of their male members and found a positive correlation between a man’s shoe size and their likelihood of having an affair.

Men with a shoe size of 10 or over are at least twice as likely to have an affair than those with a shoe size of less than 10, while the most faithful men sport feet between the sizes of 7 and 9. The most common shoe size for adulterous men was 10.5.

Spokesperson for IllicitEncounters.com, Christian Grant, said:

“While many would argue that there’s more to having an affair than one’s foot size, the data doesn’t lie. Men who sport a shoe size of 10 and over account for 85% of all men on the site, with the remaining 15% having a shoe size of 9 and under.

It looks like women whose husbands have small feet can sleep relatively comfortably at night, while those with husbands who have a big pair of loafers should perhaps be more mindful.”

The results of the study also correlate with various celebrity cheats, with Bill Clinton, Tiger Woods, Hugh Grant and Gavin Rossdale all sporting a shoe size of 10 and over.

Interestingly, the same could not be said of women. Of the 1,000 women who were surveyed, there was no correlation to be found between big feet and adultery, though the most common shoe size was 6.5 (13%).

“While women across the country have something to potentially stress over, the nation’s husbands have the privilege of not having any feet related paranoia,” said Grant.

Beer goggles do exist – and you are more likely to have sex on date if you have been boozing, according to a new survey.

* Three-quarters of women said booze had made a man they had not previously fancied seem more attractive;
* 84% of men said alcohol had changed their first impressions of a female date and made them keener to take things further;
* The vast majority of women (86%) said they were more likely to sleep with a man on a date if alcohol was involved;
* 92% of men said booze made sex more likely on a date;
* The results from a new survey of 1,000 people by IllicitEncounters.com, Britain’s leading dating website for married people

Three-quarters of women (74%) said that alcohol had made a man they had not previously fancied on a date seem more attractive.

And 84% of men said a few drinks had changed unfavourable first impressions of a female date and made them keener to take things further.

The vast majority of women (86%) said they were more likely to sleep with a man on a date if alcohol was involved.

Nine out of ten men (92%) said booze made sex more likely on a date.

The results come from a new survey of 1,000 people by IllicitEncounters.com, the leading dating website for married people.

The dictionary definition of beer boggles is the “phenomenon in which one’s consumption of alcohol makes physically unattractive persons appear beautiful.”

The survey found that 54% of women had ended up having sex with a man while wearing beer goggles.

In 84% of cases, the women had not seen the man for a further date.

Two-thirds of men (64%) had had beer goggle sex – and most (76%) had not seen the woman for a second date.

Despite these findings, 68% of women and 82% of men like to drink alcohol on a first date.
The main reason both sexes hit the booze is that it ‘helps to break the ice’ – chosen by 72% of women and 87% of men.

Most men (77%) and the majority of women (64%) said they felt more confident after a drink.

The most popular time to wear beer goggles is when you are student.

More than half of men (54%) and 48% of women said they had had beer goggle sex when they were at college.

IllicitEncounters.com spokesman Christian Grant said:

“Dating is a stressful business – you are meeting a new person and need to make a good impression fast.

It’s no wonder that both sexes finding that drinking alcohol makes the whole process a lot easier.

As the booze flows, inevitably the beer goggles come on and dates that might have finished with a quick peck on the cheek end up going far further.

That is the experience of millions of people who are dating online including lots of members of IllicitEncounters.com – you end up kissing a few ugly ducklings before meeting your swan.

Beer goggle sex may not lead to true love most of the time, but it can often be a lot of fun.”

llicitEncounters.com has more than a million members in the UK.

Most of its male members are white collar professionals earning an average of £54,000 a year.

Women on the site cheat more than men – enjoying three clandestine dates a month, compared to men’s two.

National Adultery Awards 2016 – And the Winners Are…

  • Scott Disick has been crowned Cheater of the Year for 2015 at the National Adultery Awards, a.k.a. The Cheaties
  • Cristiano Ronaldo took the crown of Sports ‘Player’ of the Year 
  • Channing Tatum and Michelle Keegan were voted as the two celebrities that we’d most likely cheat on our partner’s for
  • Sally Bercow won the “What Were They Thinking?” award
  • Bill Clinton scooped both the National Adultery Awards Fellowship Award and the Most Iconic Affair In History thanks to his (alleged) 36 affairs, most famously with Monica Lewinsky
  • The National Adultery Awards are hosted and organised by the UK’s leading dating website for married people, IllicitEncounters.com

Scott Disick, Michelle Keegan, Cristiano Ronaldo and Sally Bercow are just some of the famous faces to be awarded at the National Adultery Awards 2016, a.k.a. The Cheaties.

Taking place in an invitation-only event in London on Sunday 29th May, the event was organized and hosted by IllicitEncounters.com, the UK’s leading dating website for married people.

Scott Disick took home the evening’s most prestigious award, the 2015 Cheater of the Year, for his repeated acts of infidelity, betraying his now ex-girlfriend, Kourtney Kardashian.

He fought off stiff competition from Gwen Stefani’s ex, Gavin Rossdale, and actor Ben Affleck, who both had an affair with their childrens’ nanny, while Sally Bercow, who cheated on husband John Bercow with his cousin, and rock star Ozzy Osbourne completed the list of nominees for the main award.

“This was tough, but the right person won in the end,” said IllicitEncounters.com’s spokesperson, Christian Grant.

“Cheating on what many would consider to be a beautiful woman, and to do it several times too, is brave… or stupid, I can’t quite tell.

What’s more, the rumours say that he cheated on her with her sibling Kendall Jenner, among others. Low blow, Scott.

It was also interesting to see that the main category was dominated by men, with just one woman, Sally Bercow, making the list of nominees. Whether that says something about the cheating habits of men and women, I don’t know, but it’s an interesting thought.”

Meanwhile, Michelle Keegan took home the We ALL Would award, for the woman all married men (and gay women) would cheat on their partner’s for.

The honour of being the man that all married women (and gay men) would cheat for went to, unsurprisingly, Channing Tatum.
In the sports category, Cristiano Ronaldo won the Sports ‘Player’ of the Year after having alleged affairs with Andress Urach, Daniella Chavez and Badr Hari.

Stephanie Drew and Ali Bear of Ex On The Beach were crowned as the best reality TV cheaters, while the best TV affair was given to Holly Cunningham and Robbie Roscoe of Hollyoaks.

Sally Bercow, who cheated on her husband with his own cousin, romped to victory in the “What Were they Thinking?” category, while the NAA Fellowship Award was given to Bill Clinton, who has allegedly had affairs with 36 different women.

Speaking of Clinton, he was, in fact, a double award-winner, as he also claimed the Most Iconic Affair In History thanks to his notorious relationship with Monica Lewinsky.

Grant added:

“Unfortunately, and perhaps rather understandably, the winners could not be there in person to collect their awards, but rest assured that these have since been sent to them. We hope that they take a pride of place in the winners’ homes.”

The full list of categories, winners and nominees are as follows:

Football Widows Join Up to Extra-Marital Dating Site on Cup Final Day!

wembley3get_2560467k.jpg (858×536)

  • More than 1,000 women joined married dating website, IllicitEncounters.com, on FA Cup Final day
  • 80% of those women joined between 2 hours before kick-off and 30 minutes after the final whistle
  • Over 20% of all female registrations on Saturday originated from Manchester and Greater Manchester areas
  • With only 25.8%* of women following football, more and more are finding themselves second best to football every week

For thousands of ‘football widows,’ Saturday’s FA Cup Final between Manchester United and Crystal Palace was the final straw, with thousands signing up to the UK’s leading dating website for married people, IllicitEncounters.com.

There was a largely irregular spike of female registrations throughout Saturday, which peaked ten minutes into kick-off, and maintained its momentum until later in the evening.

IllicitEncounters.com’s spokesman, Christian Grant, said:

“At that time on a Saturday afternoon, we very rarely see numbers on this sort of a scale. After nine months of neglect, Saturday’s cup final proved to be the final straw for many women, and with a summer of football still to come, it wouldn’t surprise me to see something like this happen again.”

The site saw over 1,000 female registrations on Saturday alone, with 80% of those signing up between 3:30 (2 hours before kick-off) and 8:30pm – half an hour after the game’s conclusion.

Over 20% of those registrations were from women situated in the city of Manchester and surrounding regions in Greater Manchester, including Bolton (3%), Bury (2.2%) and Stockport (4.8%).

But while only 90,000 football fans occupied the seats of Wembley stadium, many more neutral supporters watched the game with friends, choosing to ignore their significant other.

“It’s not the first time this has happened,” said Grant.

“In every relationship, compromise is needed. While attending a football match once, twice, maybe even three times a week, can be tolerated, watching every match, especially those that don’t directly involve your team, need to be sacrificed, with more time spent with the wife and kids instead.

If not, it’ll only be a matter of time before women find something, or rather, someone, else.”

According to recent studies*, only 25.8% of women follow the sport, leaving a huge proportion of them stranded at home while their husbands’ attend matches around the country most weeks of the year.

Amanda was one of those who registered to the site on Saturday, stating:

“My husband’s been a season ticket holder at Manchester United for several years. While I don’t want him to not have a hobby, it’s reached the stage where I’m second best to a football club week in, week out.”

It found that 64% of people had searched for pictures and updates on the life of the person who first captured their heart on websites such as Facebook and Twitter.

More than a quarter of those surveyed have got back in touch with their first love after looking them up online.

And around one in six people (15%) have slept with their ex after reconnecting online, and a further 21% have thought about having sex with them.

The results were revealed in a survey of 1,000 people by IllicitEncounters.com – Britain’s leading dating website for married people.

The poll found that love truly is all around: 99% of us have fallen in love at least once in our lives by the age of 40.

For most people (55%), this happens between the ages of 15-18, a fifth (20%) fall in love between 19-21 and 8% between 22-25.

The first serious relationship lasts between one and five years for 40% of people.
A quarter of respondents (25%) are still dating their first love now, and a further 24% are still in touch even though they are no longer together.

Less than half of people (41%) said they enjoyed the best sex of their lives with their first love.

Roughly the same number (42%) still talk about their first love with their current partner.
Interestingly, this was one of the answers where there was the biggest difference in the responses of men and women.

Whereas 45% of women talk about their first love with their current partner, just 38% of men do the same.

Half of women said they had been contacted by their ex and had ignored them – whereas this has happened to just 28% of men.

Just over a quarter of us (28%) still reminisce fondly about our first love – men (31%) slightly more than women (27%).

IllicitEncounters.com spokesman Christian Grant said: “Anyone’s first love will have a profound effect on their lives.

With so many of us on social media, it is far easier to secretly track how they are getting on and it is not surprising that most people have done this.

The survey shows clearly that women are far keener than men to talk about their experiences with previous lovers.

I think this is because they want to make sure they don’t repeat previous mistakes and are generally happier talking about their feelings.

Men are much more likely to contact a former lover directly. They also reminisce more fondly about their ex-lovers than women.

I think we can safely say that these two findings are connected: men are much keener on having sex again with their first love than women who are more prepared to move on with their lives.”

IllicitEncounters.com has more than one million members in the UK.

The average income of male members is £54,000 and there are more than 20,000 people online looking for affairs each month.

We All Know What Counts As Cheating, but Here’s What Doesn’t…​

Woman-taking-off-wedding--007

  • Flirting, a drunken kiss and attending a strip club are just some of the things that DON’T count as cheating
  • Nearly two thirds of men and over half of women would forgive their partner if they caught them sending intimate messages to someone else
  • However, 89% of men and 93% of women would end their relationship if they caught their partner getting intimate with someone else
  • The results come from a survey of over 2,500 members from IllicitEncounters.com, the UK’s leading dating website for married people

There are no hard and fast rules as to what constitutes cheating. Or at least there weren’t.IllicitEncounters.com, the UK’s leading dating website for married people, have written the rule-book on cheating, compiled from suggestions and responses of over 2,500 of their members.

Cheating includes:

  • Sexting
  • Sexual intercourse
  • Other sexual activities (e.g. oral sex)
  • Dating someone outside of your relationship
  • All of the above, even if the relationship isn’t ‘official’

Cheating doesn’t include:

  •  Flirting
  •  Romantic and intimate thoughts about someone other than your partner
  •  Kissing someone while drunk
  •  Holding hands with someone other than your partner
  •  Denying being married / in a relationship
  •  Sleeping in the same bed with a friend of the opposite gender
  •  Dancing with a member of the opposite gender
  •  Going to a strip club
  •  Liking or commenting on someone else’s photo on social media
  •  Remaining close friends with an old flame

However, despite there being an overall consensus, the numbers did differ slightly depending on gender. 82% of men felt that flirting with someone didn’t constitute cheating, compared to 60% of women. And while 68% of men didn’t think that lying about their relationship status counted as being unfaithful, a little over half (53%) of women felt the same way.

83% of men felt that going to a strip club didn’t constitute cheating, and a surprisingly high number of women (77%) agreed. A high number of both men and women, 96% and 93% respectively, felt that liking or positing flattering comments on someone else’s photo on social media also didn’t cross any lines.

The survey also found that 65% of men and 54% of women would forgive their partner if they caught them sending intimate messages to another person, while 89% of men and 93% of women would break off their relationship if they caught their significant other getting intimate in any way with someone else.

Spokesperson for IllicitEncounters.com, Christian Grant, explains:

“While sex or sexting might be the obvious lines in the sand, it’s quite surprising to see the things that don’t fall under the bracket of cheating.

It seems that many people are willing to forgive a kiss, so long as it’s while under the influence of alcohol, while flirting and even going to a strip club don’t cross any lines.”

Emily, 37, explains:

“For me, cheating is all about the intent behind it. If the man I was seeing cared for someone more than me, and expressed those emotions by sexting or dating her behind my back, that’s not ok.

But a drunken kiss, the odd bit of flirting… look, we’ve all made mistakes, and context is important. Remaining monogamous is incredibly difficult – I don’t believe that all of us haven’t had an inappropriate thought about someone else at some stage, that doesn’t make us all adulterers.”

The Affairs Guide to the Budget

Osborne-Budget-1_3228824b

  • George Osborne’s budget is likely to lead to an increase in adulterers in the UK
  • This is as a result of the extra time and ease of travel brought about by a longer school day and investment in new transportation links
  • This is predicted by IllicitEncounters.com, the UK’s leading dating website for married people

Every politician, economic analyst and British citizen up and down the country is beginning to analyse and dissect George Osborne’s latest budget. But while they worry about the potential economic implications, very few, if any, are focusing on the impact that it’ll have on the adulterous behaviour on the average British citizen.

IllicitEncounters.com, the UK’s leading dating website for married people, predicts that Mr. Osborne’s latest budget will only seek to increase the number of affairs, and affair-seekers, across the country in the years to come.

Spokesperson for IllicitEncounters.com, Christian Grant, explains: “When it comes to an affair, nothing beats convenience, and the new budget offers just that. Let’s start with the obvious – longer school days. It’s an adulterer’s dream.

It can sometimes be difficult to squeeze in a long-term affair with the already hectic responsibilities one has at home, so an extra hour, or more, of not having to worry about picking up the kids from school is an extra hour browsing sites like IllicitEncounters.com, or an extra hour to play away from home, so to speak.

When you begin to factor in the extra funding that is to be provided for after-school activities, you’re simply adding to the free time that an affair-seeking parent has to sneak out for a secret tryst.

And speaking of time, travelling across the country is about to become much quicker. With rail lines such as Crossrail 2 in London and HS3 between Leeds and Manchester being greenlit, along with a cut in the tolls on the River Severn crossings, freedom of movement is becoming quicker, easier and cheaper. It’s the perfect opportunity for affair-seekers to broaden their horizons and search a little further afield, with their partner none the wiser.

Needless to say, should the Chancellor of the Exchequer grow the economy as he forecasts, it’s all the more money in people’s pockets. More money to travel, more money to spend on their secret lover.”
