Tips for men: Flesh out your profile fully with details about what you're after, what you offer, and where you're at relationship-wise. Make sure you post at least a few pictures of yourself; face pics definitely increase your chances of getting a reply (although you can limit to showing your face to 'friends' only). Then, hit the groups in your geographical region that cater to singles, and post a note with what you're seeking.

Aside from the usual physical appearance, location, and sexual preference questions, Clover also gives you the option of answering 20 profile questions in a similar manner to OkCupid. (If you're impatient, just stick with Tinder or PURE.) There is an option to check that you're only looking to hook up, so you can at least ensure that you won't be giving the wrong idea. While you can swipe to match, you can also request to go on a date (and even suggest a place and time), or create mixer events for multiple users to meet up. (AskMen's Clover reviewer saw a mixer titled "Lol why am I using this app," and we love that.) Note: There is a free version of Clover, but the premium memberships allows for unlimited chatting, plus you'll be able to unlock all photo, video, and badge features. Paying for an app is annoying, but Clover's impressive 4.5 star review and nearly 20,000 ratings on the App Store tells us people think it's worth it).
What’s Good: Has a large number of users which goes above 200 million in numbers which means there are a lot of potential matches out there for anyone. It is great for finding one night stands or hookups of any kind and does not give off a dating vibe. The user interface is clean and very easy to use and navigate through. You don’t have to provide a lot of personal details – just a photo and a few basic details will do.
It might be time to let a hookup site or app take the wheel. Sites like AdultFriendFinder and iHookup operate on the philosophy that meeting someone special doesn't need to be a big complicated thing. Besides, sometimes it's just nice to feel those butterflies of meeting someone new — even if you know it's not going to last. (Is sexting more your thing? Try these.)

Seemingly because of the short life cycle of the services, possible matches within a user’s vicinity are immediately suggested by the app. Having an app that deletes your profile info after an hour also comes in handy when you’re looking for security to go with your hookup life. Like Wild, Pure needs no link with your Facebook account, so your security is fortified further because Facebook friends can’t find you on it. If you need a quick hook-up, Pure has the convenience advantage as well because your matches are usually close by.

If you're wondering why you should focus attention on hookup-specific apps, that's an easy one. Given your no-doubt busy work schedule, dedication to your fitness routine and hope of keeping a social life alive, spending time on other online dating sites means you’ll have to sort through more matches who are looking for something significant when you aren’t. By sticking to hookup sites and apps, you avoid wasting each other's time.

But then again, some people are trying to marry the next person they date. That's cool, too — eharmony sees about five million of those people each month. In 2013, eharmony ranked first in creating marriages, and is apparently responsible for 4% of marriages in the U.S. They’re pretty confident in their matchmaking abilities, too, because they make a guarantee that if you’re not satisfied in three months, they’ll give you another three months for free. If that's not promising, I don't know what is. 

Tonight is founded by a former OkCupid employee and is as straightforward as they come. Its aim is to create more real-life connections as opposed to chatting and using the phones all the time. You just have to click a button by 6 pm to show that you would like to go on a date tonight and there will be other people who want to go on a date that night as well. So you will be matched with each other and you can select people you would like to go out with. It is available for free on iOS devices only as of now.
An app created exclusively for gay men, Grindr shows users in your surrounding area who are looking to hook up. You can customize your profile and describe what exactly it is you’re looking for to streamline the process of finding your beau for the night (or longer). Don’t be surprised by profile pictures that include everything but faces. It’s all part of the fun.
If you find yourself a tad nervous about signing up for an app that allows you to explore your kinks and your fetishes (or even your sexual orientation), remember to only do what you’re comfortable with. You don't have to link your Instagram account, for example, or make yourself discoverable to mutual friends. Depending on your level of curiosity, you might explore what turns you on by talking about it online, or in person, with others who are just as curious. 
What’s Good: It brings dating, friend with benefits, and hooking up into a single platform. Since women make the first move, the ladies have some amount of control over who gets to talk with them and can thus avoid harassment and stalking to some degree. The user interface of this app is clean and attractive. If you are not a heterosexual person, then you can initiate the moves and the ‘women make first move’ constraint doesn’t apply there. All the profiles are short with just enough information to get you going and a code of conduct and respect is maintained on the app.
Having a friend with benefits is like straddling the fence between no-strings-attached sex and a real relationship. The sex is casual, but the friendship is often very much real. The danger, of course, is that if you blur the line too much in your relationship, someone could develop real feelings, and then things either become awkwardly complicated or a blockbuster rom-com starring Justin Timberlake.
What Sucks: Blendr requires a monthly or yearly subscription which is rather inconvenient. The subscription rates are expensive at $70 for a full year, $40 for six months, $30 for 3 months and $13 for a single month. It does not have a lot of information on some of the users in there which means that there are some shady people who use the app. It doesn’t even require you to put in your real name which makes the app a fair amount of unsafe.
