World Cup leads to thousands of Married Women looking to score!

ispzdc8173inzhxwbgpa (1)

Thousands of football widows have flocked to extramarital dating site, IllicitEncounters.com, as world cup frenzy is leaving them feeling neglected by their partners. The website has reported an average of a 67% rise in female activity since World Cup fever swept the nation.

Leading UK marital affairs website IllicitEncounters.com, which has over 850,000 members, is seeing a surge of new member sign-ups as the tournament is due to begin. The recent friendly match between England and Peru showed just how invisible ladies are already beginning to feel as their partners are distracted; the site saw a 200% increase in female activity. Over the last few weeks they have seen nightly increases of up to 82% in new female traffic, with an overwhelming majority citing, ‘world cup neglect’ as the reason for joining.

Mike Taylor from IllicitEncounters.com said: “There is a large number of women who are feeling neglected due to world cup fever being their partner’s number one priority. Some of the new members even mention the fact they had signed-up just because they were sick and tired of coming second to football matches and decided to ‘play away’ themselves during the world cup.”

Charlotte 38 from Manchester who joined the site just before the England and Peru game, made it clear in her profile that she was looking for someone to fill the gap during the world cup commenting: “World cup season is upon us and I have become invisible to my man I am looking for someone who is fit, active and looking to meet up during matches for some fun.”

Mike Taylor adds: “Some new females have actually been surprisingly explicit about what lead them to join the site, citing instances when they were neglected while their partner spent hours at the pub, or those who were completely ignored at home, apart from the occasional request for beer and snacks.”

So while some footballers may have more experience in dealing with affairs illicit encounters, expect these figures to serve as a wake-up call to the majority of British men – if you don’t pay attention to your ladies, they are not afraid to go and find someone who will. Most likely someone who’s into salsa dancing or doubles tennis.

Audi drivers overtake BMW as the most adulterous car owners

jwm5kh6fnq3fjqcxcl6x

It appears that BMW owners have lost the title of most adulterous drivers to Audi owners, the UK’s leading married dating site IllicitEncounters.com can reveal. In a follow up to last years poll, BMW drivers have slipped into second place. Meaning BMW owners have either switched to a new car manufacturer or have bucked up their ideas and been more faithful in the past 12 months.

BMW remains as the worlds largest maker of luxury vehicles despite Audi receiving $25 billion worth of investment since 2002 and doubling the number of model lines they make since 2003 from 6 to 12 but Audi have plans to take the lead from BMW by 2020 and if our stats are anything to go by they look on course to do so.

Spokesperson for IllicitEncounters.com Mike Taylor said: “Cars can reveal a lot about their owners, all the cars in the top 5 represent our members, they are typically successful, motivated, high-achievers who are less likely to settle for something they find unsatisfying, be it a car or a relationship. Car manufacturers know this and Mercedes even famously used infidelity to advertise their cars with the banned ‘Not In This Weather’ advert.”

It seems German manufacturers are the most favoured by Illicit Encounters members with Mercedes Benz coming in third in the study of the dating sites 800,000 members whilst the exception Volvo (Swedish) came forth and Volkswagen finished the top 5.

Interestingly both the car brands with the fewest number of adulterers where French, so whilst the French may embrace adultery it seems the drivers of their cars do not. So if your husband or wife drives a Peugeot or a Renault you can be pretty confident that they are less likely to stray.

The other interesting statistic was, 72% of Illicit Encounters members where likely to change cars within three years to refresh to a newer brand or model, and only 7% of members primary car was older than 5 years.

Men reveal the sexiest female professions

l8eguwsu79qigm3dpvds

A new study conducted by the UK’s leading married dating site IllicitEncounters.com has revealed the female professions that men find the most attractive, and those that are more likely to find success when it comes to looking for romance online.

The study asked over 2,700 male members of the UK’s largest married dating website what they thought the sexiest profession was for a partner and why. The top result was revealed to be journalists with 27% of the votes, journalists are seen by men as naturally sharp, well spoken, sophisticated and ambitious. The second profession men found sexy were women who are professional chefs (21%), with men describing them as adventurous creative and with excellent taste .

According to the study, the least attractive profession is a reality TV star; men viewed them as vain, self-absorbed and unintelligent.

IllicitEncounters.com spokesperson Rosie Freeman-Jones commented: “Women who are confident and intelligent are seen by men as sexy, Men on the site are looking for women who can stimulate and engage them on an intellectual level as well as a physical one. It appears that the fake tan and aggressive nature of some reality stars may act as a massive turn off to some men. On the other hand journalists are seen as sophisticated yet approachable and chefs are seen as creative, adventurous and willing to experiment.”

Other professions that made the ‘hot’ list include nurses and teachers who where described as inspiring and caring whilst entrepreneurs where seen to be risk takers, motivated and ambitious.

Michael, 47, from London, who uses IllicitEncounters.com to meet married women commented “When I am looking for a date I am looking for someone who is intelligence, passionate and creative, I want a woman who is motivated and self confident. I tend to avoid women who are obsessed with themselves and how they look, I don’t find the vacuous image of reality stars attractive, I would much rather meet a woman who is smart and creative not just dipped in fake tan.”

It seems men are not just looking for a quick fling and are looking for women they actually can connect with, they are spending more time than ever online messaging with women in the hope of connecting with someone special.

Working Longer Hours Can Lead To An Affair

pm9gkz5ogtsyfkrpf3c5

Spending more hours in the office is leading to a rise in affairs in the workplace according to a recent study by Notatwork.co.uk and married dating site IllicitEncounters.com. The research revealed that people who regularly worked over 45 hours a week are almost 5 times more likely to embark on an extra marital affair.

It estimated that more than seven million people a year in the UK work unpaid extra hours to hold on to their jobs. The study revealed that employees that regularly do more that 50+ hours a week are those working in the Video games industry, financial sector, medicine, journalism, and the emergency services. With all of them having a much higher than average number of work-based affairs.

The most common reason the respondents gave for working longer hours was that workload has increased in recent years and they fear for their jobs, so they work longer hours to make sure they are secure. The video games industry has long had a reputation of having to work long hours with developers doing 12 to 16 hours a day for three to four months at a time, without extra pay due to the belief if they don’t they will be replaced by younger cheaper talent.

Spokesperson for IllicitEncounters.com, Mike Taylor, said “Working longer hours without additional pay or benefits can push people into making bad relationship decisions. Workers can find themselves in the office late at night, exhausted and feeling low and take comfort with a co-worker in the same situation, this can then develop as they spend more time with each other than they are with their spouses. Over 54% of all workers admitted that at some-point in their career they have considered engaging in a work-based affair and this study shows the likelihood of them doing so increases exponentially when working hours are increased.”

Unemployment fell to 2.5 million between October and December last year and there are 580,000 more people in work than a year ago, but staff are being squeezed into working longer hours whilst taking home less, with average earnings growth slowing to just 1.4%, below the 2.7% inflation rate.

Employers need to recognise that squeezing more hours out of their workers is counter-productive in more ways than one. It affects their workers’ morale, their physical and mental well being and as this study has shown, can also be detrimental to their personal relationships. None of those is going to be of any long term benefit to any business.

Married Dating Site Exceeds Three Quarters of a Million Members as People Look to Cure Winter Blues

ygugdenxtrnt85qw1f58

The UK’s leading married dating site IllicitEncounters.com has exceeded 750,000 milestone as the effects of the New Year blues pushes people to seek extra-marital relationships. Black Monday (the first working Monday of the new year) is the most popular day of the year for marriage separations and calls to divorce lawyers, but in times of economic uncertainty it seems more people are deciding to stay in unfulfilling marriages and having an affair to fill the void.

The dating website saw a 75% increase in daily new member sign-ups in the period running up to and including the 7th January and the trend is set to continue throughout the month as both women and men look for a new partner outside of their relationship.

IllicitEncounters Spokesperson Mike Taylor said: “The New Year is a time when people are making life changing decisions so an increase in sign-ups at the beginning of the year is no surprise to us. The amount of new members suggests that the economic climate is continuing to take its toll on relationships. We have seen the married dating industry grow experientially over the last 9 years with now nearly 6% of the married population signing up to look for an affair online with someone in the same situation, rather than risking a tryst with a co-worker or their neighbour.”

Studies have shown that more couples argue in January than during any other month, with many trying to deal with the stresses of returning to work, over spending, eating and drinking over the holiday period and money being stretched tighter and tighter by New Year price rises. This leads to an inevitable build up of irritability and tempers are frayed. Add to this the financial implications of getting a divorce and the prospect of having an affair not only starts to look appealing, it becomes a financially viable option.

Richard Smith a researcher for NotAtWork.co.uk said: “This is also a time when people are most likely to start a work-place romance, however I would have to advise them to think twice as a whopping 80% of employers have admitted that they would hesitate to promote a member of staff who had had an interoffice relationship.”

Smartphones help people stay in touch during floods

kra0lns24azzujrefvuk

Many parts of the UK have been affected by the torrential rain and flooding over the last few days. Even under these challenging weather conditions, members of the UK’s largest married dating site IllicitEncounters.com have still been able to log on to check their messages and let their lovers know that they are ok. The site has seen the number of visits from mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets increase considerably in the areas worst affected.

This month has seen some of the worst floods of the year in many areas of the country. According to a Downing Street spokesman 300 properties were flooded in just 24 hours in England and Wales alone, and over 1000 homes have now been flooded. In St Asaph in North Wales the River Elwy rose to 6ft above its normal level with disastrous effects.

Rosie Freeman-Jones Spokesperson for IllicitEncounters.com said: “It has been a nasty few days weather-wise and we wish to extend our sympathies to all those who have been affected by the extreme weather conditions. But thankfully due to the rise in the number of people having smart phones members have been able to access the site and send and receive messages.”

In the last year the UK has shown a large increase in smartphone usage from 30 to 45% of the total population. Also the study by google found that the demographics of smartphone owners are shifting, smartphone ownership has risen sharply for those aged over 45.

Conditions like this highlight our reliance on the internet and communication tools that we have come to take for granted, thanks to the rise in tablet computing and smartphone usage people are still able to stay in contact no matter the weather.

Women Seeking Affairs Are On The Increase

s9azkwtkofh6lcf7ttn8

Women Seeking Affairs Are On The Increase.

Research conducted over the past few years has shown that female infidelity is on the rise – women are now looking for fulfilment outside of their marriage more than ever before.

A recent study by researchers at the Kinsey Institute, Indiana University and the University of Guelph revealed that since the 1990s, women who reported to ever having an affair has risen over 50% from 12% to 19%. Where as men have remained at a stable 23% since the early 90’s.

Mike Taylor, spokesperson for leading Extra-Marital dating site IllicitEncounters.com commented; “We have seen this trend emerging over the last few years with more and more women signing up and looking for an extra marital relationship. It now seems that the infidelity gender divide is closing and women are feeling more empowered and able to seek the fulfilment they want and deserve. Women and men are coming to realise that a monogamous marriage may not be the only option available to them and they are seeking to find like minded additional partners.”

There are now more women in the work place than ever before giving them greater financial independence. Coupled with the growth of the internet, this has played a massive part in enabling women to close the adultery gap on men. They are now more free and able to search for a prospective lover from their laptop. Twenty years ago there were no internet dating sites and women at home during the day had far less opportunity to meet someone who wasn’t the postman or milkman.

The study also showed that if you include all romantic misdemeanour’s such as kissing, women are just as likely to cheat as their male counterparts. If this trend continues we could see adultery becoming as acceptable in society the same way divorce has become acceptable over the last 20 years.

£2.5Billion A Year Spent On Office Affairs

bbd3e1oey4xb4bzlduo1

A study commissioned by leading extra-marital affairs website IllicitEncounters.com in conjunction with NotAtWork.co.uk has revealed that office romances are costing British Businesses £2.5 billion a year.

The survey conducted in October 2012, asked business owners and employees to answer questions relating to the effect of Work-based Romances on businesses. It had some startling results, of the individuals questioned 75% admitted to thinking about engaging in an office romance and 54% already had, with a shocking 27% having done it on more than one occasion.

84% of individuals stated that it would affect their productivity within the workplace, costing their companies thousands. In fact in the last 12 months, the average cost to each business surveyed from issues relating to office romances was over £65,000. So the total cost to the UK companies in excess of £2.5 billion.

Mike Taylor, Spokesperson for IllicitEncounters.com, said “£2.5 Billion is an insane amount of money for companies to be spending or losing due to office-based romances, whilst most UK businesses don’t have contractual rules against employees fraternising, over 50% of the businesses surveyed acknowledged the financial implications as they would actively recommend using a dating site to find romance rather than having their staff seek it out in the workplace.”

However, some businesses are still failing to recognise the full magnitude of the problem. Although it would seem too drastic an action for many UK employers to introduce a morality clause within an employment contract. Some large US companies have had them for some time such as Disney who recently spent £2.5 Billion on Lucas Films, some of which probably came from money saved by having a morality clause.
