Editor's Verdict:

MaritalAffair.co.uk specializes in adult dating in the UK (and to a lesser extent in the USA and South Africa). If you reside in the UK, please read on. If you reside elsewhere we've reviewed many other adult dating sites at No.1Reviews.com that would be better suited to you.

Marital Affair features a no-nonsense approach for adult dating. The membership composition ranges from "new to this, really" to "must have sex now". There seem to be lots of sexual adventures available - enough to suit many diverse desires, tastes and attitudes. The availability of a range of ages, interests, and preferences make this site a keeper for those fortunate enough to be served by it.

MaritalAffair.co.uk has a welcoming laid back feel that is common to the better UK-based dating sites. This smartly contrasts many typical U.S. adult dating sites where the multiple video porn galleries largely overshadow the dating services the site is there to provide. At MaritalAffair.co.uk, the dating atmosphere is much more congenial and is itself a member benefit. Incidentally, regardless of name, the site has a fairly large contingent of singles here to compliment the well-rounded membership.

The list of available features is a relatively short one. MaritalAffair.co.uk has no video feeds, chat rooms, nor personal webcam options. What they do offer is a set of utilitarian features starting with site-based e-mail. This e-mail feature is only accessible by Premium members. (MaritalAffair must be worried that free members would use it, then dash off the site with their interests contact info in hand). On-site email is the main way of contacting and getting the initial exchange of interest established. So you'll have to use other means mutually available to you (like Google Chat or Yahoo messenger) to take the interest further. This is somewhat disappointing, as as on-site instant messenger can be a useful way to remain anonymous and secure when getting to know other members.

MaritalAffair.co.uk therefore seems to operate like dating sites from the early 2000's era, with nothing more than an e-mail system and some supportive features to help keep your on-site activities reasonably convenient and organized. The other features available are: the Ignore list, Favorites list, Who's viewed me, Mobile messages, Interest filters, Dating diary, and of course the search engine. This list isn't particularly inspiring for the tech junkies who want to see multiple chat rooms, site-based instant messengers, or computer-based matching.

We like to see sites offering live on-site communications features, like chat rooms and instant messengers, as they are convenient and safe ways of getting to know people. But for the UK, where things are more sedate or laid back than in the US, MaritalAffair's approach seems to be compatible with members' needs. The site isn't interested in building up a number of features that are not vital for their members (and would drive up costs). The site seems to be doing well, so they must have some kind of handle on satisfying their members' site-requirements.

What the site does very well is give their members a simple, common ground to search for their partners in a setting that is effective and comfortable. As a basic (free) member doing a general search (of London- based members), we turned up over 1,000 listings. We had over 140 with photos. That's a very low photo ratio but we're aware of the implications of the discretion factor on a site named MaritalAffair.co.uk. We were impressed by the high number of listings but realize we'll have to dig through them to sort out some keepers.

The photo quality was very good with an enlargement option available for the listing photo. Clicking the listing photo automatically enlarges it and opens the member's full profile - another nice touch. The profile info is very well done. It's arranged in logical sections which makes for informative, easy reading and lets you browse and move on if you're not exactly taken by what is presented. So photos and profiles are generally handled very well here.

MaritalAffair.co.uk seems good in most respects. The style of the site and the way members present themselves, with their straight forward yet friendly manner, goes some way towards overcoming the site's severely limited features. MaritalAffair may have enough interested, involved members to be well served, particularly in a population center like London. (But you'll have to confirm your locale to be sure). The value for money is good but not great. The pricing for a site with a lack of sophisticated options is on the expensive side, but if you find they serve your area well, then the costs may be well justified in our view.

We like sites that cater to their membership in a communal way. While the site lacks the features that are usually instrumental in creating a socially friendly site, MaritalAffair.co.uk seems to develop and maintain a sociable atmosphere for and with their members. If MaritalAffair has piqued your interest, our recommendation is to take a basic membership and see if your area is well served by the site. For the purpose of comparison, you may find it useful to also sign up (for free) with some of our top ranking adult dating sites. You're sure to find at least one site that pushes the right buttons for you.
