ForbiddenFruitDating.co.uk

A refreshing approach to a difficult area of modern life....

This site is unique in that it is genuine! Our modern lifestyles and use of social media mean that a monogamous relationship for life is a very hard thing to maintain. Whilst it is a matter of personal lifestyle choice - and this is not an opinion either way - the fact remains that there are many people of both sexes who openly, or covertly, need someone more in their lives in order for them to be able to be happy 'at home'. The reasons are many and varied, but they are all valid to those concerned. This site deals with the need very well indeed and I have been a member for quite some time now. A key element is that whilst its primary reason for being is to enable people to find an EMA, it also contains counseling facilities as well as a lot of useful advice from the owners and the forum allows access to people who have been through 'it' whatever 'it' is for you. There are also social events too which is an extremely useful feature and these are held all over the country now!

I have found a lot of support from this service, as well as made several friends in the full meaning of the word. I can't recommend it highly enough!

Pros
Honest, genuine profiles
Forum is brilliant
Counseling service is available along with a lot of useful information
People seem very nice and from all walks of life
Social functions are great fun!

Cons
None really unless you just like wading through pages of fake profiles all designed to fleece you of money in which case you need to look somewhere else!

Simply Brilliant

Being new to online dating, and especially so to extra-marital dating, I was very nervous when starting out and tried 2 or 3 sites before I came across Forbidden Fruit Dating (FFD). With the other sites I felt that I was merely an open wallet, there to be regularly fleeced with expensive basic membership and constant encouragement to purchase extras such as virtual gifts. The number of ‘fake’ or scam profiles annoyed me too. On the point of giving up altogether I found FFD and decided to have one last attempt. What a refreshing change! Firstly, membership is excellent value for money compared to every other site I have come across. Secondly there are no extras to pay, just your membership. I was contacted by an obvious fake/scam profile so I thought I would report it. Amazingly the profile had already been deleted in less than 2 hours of being set up. This site actively polices what happens so that all members are safe.

Uniquely this site has a forum - a place for the serious and the fun. It is divided into 2, a public area and a member’s only area “Behind The Curtain”. Before a member can see “Behind The Curtain” they have to make 30 posts. This ensures only genuine people have access to the more private area. Here you can also find details of the various social functions, although for security reasons only confirmed attendees are given the exact time and place of a social shortly before the event. And what an event it is! Despite being nervous I attended my first social in August 2012. I was met at the station by the site owner and another member. I was assisted to my hotel and ensured I was safely installed at the chosen venue and introduced to the other attendees. What a warm and welcoming place it was with respect and fun in abundance. I have been a member of several clubs and organisations in real life and none has been as friendly as this place. I have been to several socials now and they have all been the same in this respect.

Membership is diverse too from the sophisticated professional to the ordinary person in the street, and cliques simply do not occur. Some people are more active than others but everyone is included, and there is no pressure to participate in a certain way. Members are also there for each other with help and advice on virtually everything. Whatever the question, there is usually someone with a measured and educated answer.

I honestly cannot imagine my life now without FFD. What started as me being a member of a website has turned into me becoming part of an unconventional but happy family. If you are looking for a good and honest site with genuine people look no further than FFD.

Pros
Friendly and honest. The site cares for its members, provides a safe and secure environment and won't rip you or your wallet off. The social events are worth the membership alone. Although small, it is steadily growing in membership which of course means new members are joining and being active rather than having a long list of people who look like they are members but in reality disappeared a long time ago. In fact if you decide to join and attend a social event come and say hello. I am happy to justify every word of my review.

I am only a member and not a friend of the owner or materially connected to this website in any way. So why am I posting this review? Because it is a genuine place for likeminded people and it truly has changed my life for the better. If you join and read some of my old posts you will understand why.

Cons
There really aren't any. It perhaps can appear to an outsider to have a core number of members and the fear is that they will be in a clique. Nothing can be further from the truth. If you can get over the initial anxiety of posting for the first time on a real forum and dating site I can guarantee your reservations will fall away.

A Fun Place To Be

As a married lady seeking extramarital fun I have been a member of a number of married dating sites with differing results. I joined this one, firstly on the dating site alone, however I soon introduced myself on the forum.
The dating site is small, but growing, and the people that I have met on there are genuine, intellegent and sexy people.
I found the forum to be invaluable, as a source of any advice regarding extramarital dating and as a support network when things go wrong (and they do). The social events serve two purposes, one is to have a great night out with likeminded people who won't judge your behaviour, the other is to have somewhere to go with your lover and be able to talk freely to other people without fear of being caught out.

Someone stated that we were all the owner's friends. We are, but that is because of the forum and the fact that everyone is made to feel welcome. I didn't know any of these people until I joined.

Pros
Genuine members
Higher than average IQ
The ability to chat with members both male and female
Social activities

Cons
Still rather small
Probably needs more people to join in the forum

The best in it's class by far

The site may be smaller than some others but it boasts an active, interesting, intelligent and real community of people who aren't time wasters or players. Everything about the site is refreshingly good from the forum to the socials to the private messaging. It works ... well. The posts on the forum cover subjects from current affairs to erotic stories to advice and support to jokes to everyday commentary - often funny, always interesting and sometimes thought provoking. The members are a mix of married and singles, exclusive EMAs and portfolio people. I haven't used the dating site as I have got all my dates from meeting at socials or through getting to know people through the forum discussions.
It is an extremely well run and welcoming place and I am very pleased to have become part of it and to have made many friends both male and female.

Pros
The forum - interesting and interactive
The socials - you've not really lived until you have attended one
The people - fun, flirty, intelligent, sexy and genuine
The care the admin take to ensure security and discretion is maintained
No fake profiles
No time wasters
You can get advice on anything from baking to onesies to sex to technical it stuff and everything in between -if you need to know, someone will be able to help.

Cons
None that I have found so far

A fantastic find

I have tried a few dating sites before, both general and specifically for marrieds and to be honest have found them a real numbers game. Many of the members on these sites are not genuine and it can cost a fortune to keep plugging away for the eventual realistic and hopeful contact that will lead somewhere meaningful.

Forbidden Fruit Dating is different. Whilst it is (currently) much smaller than many dating sites, most of the members seem genuine and interesting. The gender split of members is unusually even and the site hosts a great forum where everyone seems to get on really well and offer each other advice on both extra marital affairs and real life. The joining fee is currently very reasonable.

Coverage of the whole country is a bit patchy at the moment, with London and the South East being best represenented. Hopefully, as the site grows and matures, this will change.

I have been a member for a few months now and regard the forum and the online community it builds up almost worth the price of admission alone. Where the site really comes into it's own though is that, largely through the forum, you get a much deeper understanding of people's personality than you would just via a dating site profile (FFD has those as well mind). Consequently, you can be much surer than normal of some kind of compatibility when asking for a date. Oh, and dates do happen, usually with surprisingly little effort. I have arranged 3 since I joined,out of 3 requests, and have now embarked on an ongoing affair with a lovely lady, which I am enjoying greatly.

One final feature of the site worth mentioning is the socials. They are arranged with regularity, both by the marvellously involved and energetic site owner and other members. They are well attended and great fun to boot. Members turn up in combinations of long term "couples", one-off "couples" and free and "single". Of course, the ratios of those categories can change during the course of a night. Everyone I have met has been charming, intelligent and very open and honest. Excellent fun.

Pros
Well run
Full of genuine members
Good introductory membership offer
Excellent forum and personal messaging system
Growing and bound to go places
A friendly community
Interesting and frequent socials

Cons
Still a little on the small side
Coverage of some parts of the country is patchy

Give it a whirl

If you are looking for a dating site that is full of interested, genuine and friendly folk then this is it. More often than not dating sites are often full of trolls, timewasters and liars, it seems to me that people here are as they say they are, which is extremely important. They organise social nights so you can get to meet and mingle. There is more of a friendly, helpful nature to this site as many other sites are often edgy, competitive and quite ruthless. This is not like that, and if you want a warm welcome then do come here first.

Pros
Regular Social meets which are very welcoming of all
No Trolls
Help and advice available
Good value
Reallly nice and trustworthy site owner
lively forum posts

Bit misleading reveiws

I had a look around this site a bit and quite honestly there is never anyone there just the same few people who must be friends of the owner.

Pros
Nothing special

Cons
no interesting activity ans always same few people

Niche - but very nice......

Not the typical dating site in that their entry policy of a small charge gets rid of the kids, the pro's and the spammers. I have been a member since the start and whilst it was quiet to start with it is getting busier and I have met some truly lovely ladies. The socials are THE best as you meet real people who are refreshingly ordinary but very understanding of my situation. I am very lucky to have met a truly lovely lady through this site and it is going really well with her. Yes the site may still be in the early stages but it is well managed, very genuine and I am sure in time it will grow to become one of the strongest in the sector.

Pros
Genuine, honest, tolerant memberships
Sensible entry policy with sensible costs
Good management of the forum
Simple and effective PM system
Ask Catherine service - like having a free counsellor
Relationship advisory service available on a one to one basis which is unique
Not swamped with millions of fake profiles or kids or spammers

Cons
None really other than it is still new but everything has to start at a beginning

Genuine, fun, interesting people

FFD is quite simply the most genuine, fun and interesting site I've ever been on. And I've been on a few!

The people make it. The website itself gives you the usual dating things you expect, but the real thing that makes it stand out are the forums. These are worth the subscription alone, with a wealth of useful information for those embarking on this sort of relationship. The people on the site are just lovely, and the site encourages frank, open discussion while still preserving the privacy we all crave.

One thing I've found on this site which is different to any others are the social meetings. These are arranged discreetly and securely which was an initial concern of mine. The social I went to was just an absolute blast, and it was great to put a face to the names of those I'd been speaking to. I've kept up the contacts made, and count those people amongst my friends now.

I can't recommend this site highly enough for those new to EMA's, and those who are jaded with other sites and the scammers and timewasters.

Pros
The other members - genuine, fun, interesting.
Forums are discreet, informative and often downright hilarious!
Far fewer timewasters and scammers

Cons
Could do with more ladies in my area, but the site is growing fast

ForbiddenFruitDating.co.uk - Naughty niche interest!

I have been a member of this site for 10 months, and it's so refreshing to be on a site where, as a woman seeking to engage in extramartial activities, you're treated like a person not a walking sex toy. The forum is the best thing about the site - you can chat with other people in similar circumstances in a genuinely supportive, friendly, safe environment, and get to know them as people first (perhaps this is less important to the gentlemen but as a woman engaging in this sort of activity, it really helps to be able to feel safe!)

Unlike other similar sites, there's no hidden agenda and no fakeusers made up by the owners to entice the gullible into parting with vast amounts of cash. The rates are far more reasonable than comparable sites - the fact that ladies pay a very small monthly fee means that scam-artists, ID-fraudsters and ladies who require payment for their time are eliminated.

The add-on services are great too - not only the forum, but social events where you can meet the people you've been chatting too online in a safe, friendly, fun (public!) environment. When I first attended one of these socials I was frankly terrified and expected something sordid - I couldn't have been more wrong! The people I met were all nice, normal, fun people, and the men positively gentlemanly!

I would thoroughly recommend this site to anyone who engages in this kind of lifestyle.

Happy times

This is a lovely website for naughty people. I have been a member since May last year, I joined through a friend that was already a member who recommmended it to me.

What I really liked was that no one judged you on your own circumstances, I am a single girl but an attached chap suits me more at this moment in my life. Other sites I have been on can often put you down and think you have some devious intention behind this and can't accept you just want to have fun but not with a string of one nighters or players. Everyone on the site is so genuine and has a very accepting attitude.

The first event I went to was a lunch in London, I was totally terrified but soon as I walked in a was warmly greeted by everyone and I felt so at home, pulled that night too (cool) Since then I have been to a few more of the socials and I always have a fantastic time, so much time and thought go into these, to make sure everyone enjoys themselves.

FFD is one big naughty ball of fun. I would also recommend it to people who are also debating if this is the lifestyle for them, rather than go headfirst into something which risks so such, try out the forums and ask questions, you will always get honest answers and no one is going to push you into it, the aim of the site is happiness for you. If you do decide to investigate further join up and come to a social you will realise there is a big group of people that you can chat to about anything and everything, and who knows eventually you may end up finding your partner in crime there or on the dating part of the site.

I have enjoyed the journey and long may it continue

Pros
Real, friendly, caring, honest people
Fabulous social events
Fair fees for both sexes
The community feeling
It has a mobile site so you can view it easily from your smartphone

Cons
Can't really think of any, except when I use the mobile site I want to be able to use smilies easily

Forbidden Fruit Dating - A genuinely friendly site

I joined this site just under a year ago while it was in its infancy. This is the first time I've been a member of a site where I don't think I'm getting scammed, or that I'm being ripped off. You have a feeling of indivduality, and are not subjected to a barrage of 'circular/spam' mails telling you 'somebody is interested in you' where its clearly a scam marketing email, trying to extract huge amounts of money out of you.

It has a genuinely friendly forum, where all sorts of things get discussed, and advice is given on how to conduct a successful illicit lifestyle, and kind words if things go wrong, along with all sorts of saucy fun and filth, but always in good humour, and never overwhelming or threatening. They have regular social events as well; I've managed to get to a couple in London, but they do have them over the country, and they are genuinely fun events, I've seen people arrive one their own, and leave accompanied, I unfortunately think I blew what was probably my best chance because I left early as I had a long journey home, and an early start at work....more fool me! And yes, there were some hot women.

I've met a few woman from the site now, and although I've now become good mates with a couple of them, although nothing has yet ended in any bedroom action, I don't think it'll be too long!

Pros
The first site I consider to being genuine.
Realistic membership fees.
No Bullshit, or scamming.

Cons
Could do with a few more women on the dating site in my area, but it's definitely growing!

A way to meet people in a safe environment... and it's FUN!

It's a big step to adultery for very many people and Forbidden Fruit enables you to make that step gently. There is a dating side and a forum side... it's fun to introduce yourself on the forum and my goodness, there are very many welcoming members on there. The Dating side is your typical internet dating site but there is always help at hand if needed.

You can attend social 'do's' via the Forum or just 'chat' (and believe me you get a lot of PM's from the opposite sex curious about you!). I have been in an affair (now finished) and I have to say the 'Ask Catherine' section (agony aunt type thing) was soooo helpful. I was in a bit of a turmoil and asked for some advice from the 'resident agony aunt' Catherine and agreed she could post the problem on a thread. Within no time, there was so many thoughtful and insightful posts which really really helped me sort out my problem and look forward.

Within no time I had a message from someone on FFD and at the moment we are exploring a possible relationship and I have to say... it is looking GOOD!!

Well worth investigating FFD I would say.

Pros
Friendly site
Easy to get help when you are not sure about what to do
Social Do's
Ask Catherine Agony Aunt for advice with problems and it's FREE!
Not a huge site with millions of members... the more personal touch really counts

Cons
None really ... probably needs more members but it's new and all the basics and how it's managed and operated is great.

I think there is a 'special offer' for new members so it won't be long before the site is just how it should be as far as members. The personal touch without being like a cattle market.
