I'm a very cautious person, so it's hard to trust either 1) Skout, or 2) most of the men on Skout (I'm sure the same can be said about some of the women too.) After being contacted by numerous men, it's funny how many of them are from one area. And then....just how many men can be widowed, with one child, and their poor wife died in a car accident, x many years ago. And...just how many lonely "contractors" are there out there. And then there's the "what's your yahoo id" business, "so we can chat better." Or "do you have skype" right after someone has said "hi how are you". I met a man that I thought was really nice, and chatted with him for quite awhile...but I am suspicious by nature, and can't find anything about him online...and I have searched everywhere. Asking him questions only gets "you don't trust me...why are you checking up on me"...etc, etc, etc.
Anyway...it's a great concept...but damn, filter out the riff raff
Pros
Easy to use, easy to get "points" if you don't mind downloading a bunch of apps
Cons
Too easy to sign up - no riff-raff filter....Be careful is all I can say.
