It is also a scary place for the uninitiated. You'll be GLAD you did. We have been successfully matching singles in Dallas-Fort Worth since 1993. We can probably match you, too. It is almost always free to place an ad.
Some replies are free, too.
Porno sites masquerading as single ladies abound on the free sites. Also, married women out for a fling, many of whom are mentally unstable or have no telling how many have STDs, often answered my ad. And if they weren't married or porno queens, many of the remainder women were not particularly attractive, to say the least. That's the kind Aunt Sally always wants me to meet. If that's what you want, head right on over to some free sites.
