The majority, including those in long-term relationships, are encouraged to skip small talk – and head straight to bed. According to spokesman Howard James, this ‘philosophy’ of one-night stands has led to 10 divorces or separations since the site was launched in 2008.
He said: ”We are delighted to have helped so many people leave behind their unhappy relationships and discover new and fulfilling lives.” The site, a so-called ‘Wedding Free Zone’, introduces folk looking for ”uncomplicated flings”. Of its 200,000 adult members, a ‘’significant number” – believed to be in the region of 15 per cent – are married or in relationships.
A recent survey carried out by the site revealed that dozens of ‘love rat’ members have been caught cheating on their partners. Of these, 10 have now formally separated. ”It’s a strange milestone to celebrate, I know,” Howard said. ”But it proves one thing – that the days of old-fashioned romance have long gone.”

Actually, I think the days of ignoring/hiding your partner's infidelities and staying in broken marriages "for appearances" are long gone.
I wonder how many relatively happy marriages they've broken up unintentionally. Encouraging people to sleep around? Lovely. :-P
