Not About Online Dating "Mistakes"
1 out of 5 stars
Not About Online Dating "Mistakes"
Unfortunately, "Plenty of Freaks-Worst Online Dating Mistakes" does not live up to its title or subtitle. The title led me to expect a book that centered around on-line dating mistakes. Instead, a section of the book, spanning several pages on my Kindle, focuses on an exaggerated account of the author's intestinal issues. I don't know about you, but who wants to waste minutes of their life, that they will never get back, reading something that isn't relevant to the story? Sometimes it's best to let an author's words stand on their own. Here is an image of the author's words that reflect the troubling tone. Reducing a woman to her physical appearance goes beyond humor, and into cruelty. If you're looking for a book about online dating "mistakes", whether to be entertained or to learn what not to do, I don't feel this is the book.

    This book had me laughing out loud at situations that felt way too familiar. Sidney Prasad nails all the awkward moments and red flags we've all ignored when dating online. The stories are funny but also make you think twice about your own dating choices. It's a quick, entertaining read that doesn't take itself too seriously. Perfect for anyone who has been through the online dating nightmare and lived to tell the tale.

    This is another unconventional book from Sidney Prasad. I am going to go ahead and guess that this author tried to be funny and once again, ended up being quite the opposite. Telling a few stories about encounters that went wrong with online dating and how to avoid the same mistakes from date to date. This was an interesting book but I couldn't get hooked by it. I do think you have to be careful if you are planning on meeting someone after chatting online, but I know a lot of people who met online and are now a great couple. I think it all comes down to your values and what you are actually searching for.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Cringe-Worthy Dating Tales
    Reviewed in the United States on April 6, 2024
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    Worst Online Dating Mistakes is a continuation of the Plenty of Freaks series by Sidney S Prasad. The author has done painstaking research to compile some of the most awkward and sometimes even frightening adventures that individuals have gone through after meeting people online.

    Like other installments in this series, the reader can view these escapades as cautionary tales. This would be a fun book to read from at dinner parties. It’s much like doomscrolling through Reddit and reading horrifying tales from individuals who thought they were making a connection with someone worthwhile online, only to realize they were dealing with a lunatic.

    Unfortunately, these stories are all too common these days. Readers of this book series should not automatically give up on online dating after checking out some of these too-strange-to-be-fiction tales, but they should learn to exercise caution. While there are always going to be date-worthy people to be found online, there are plenty of freaks out there as well.

    Reviewed in the United States on February 13, 2026
    Format: Kindle
    It dives straight into the common mistakes people make, from overlooking obvious warning signs to falling for fantasy instead of facts.
    What stands out most is how relatable the scenarios feel. If you have ever dealt with mixed signals, catfishing, love bombing, or inconsistent behavior, you will see yourself somewhere in these pages. The author breaks down the psychology behind poor choices in a way that makes you reflect on your own patterns instead of just blaming the other person.
    It is not just entertaining. It is educational. The lessons are clear: protect your standards, move with awareness, and stop settling for crumbs disguised as potential. Anyone navigating dating apps or recovering from online dating drama will appreciate the direct advice and real talk.
    If you want a wake up call that helps you date smarter and avoid unnecessary heartbreak, this book delivers exactly that.

    This is in no way form or fashion a guide on dating, so if that is what you're look for, by all means, look elsewhere. That being said, this book brings up so many of the worst possible scenarios to get yourself involved in. It's like your mind telling you this a bad idea but your heart pushing you towards it anyway only to end up trapped in some inescapable date that never seems to end. It is very well done, and there are plenty of horrible stories to indulge in. This is good book for anyone looking for a little reading time that isn't too committal. There are several stories in this one book, and it will bring some laughs for sure.

    3.0 out of 5 stars If you are thinking about online dating and have never done it before
    Reviewed in the United States on April 8, 2024
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    Chances are you've heard about online dating from a friend or been struck by stories circulating about blind dates and you almost certainly have some fears from all those graphic horror stories that shock your senses and your sensitivity. Or you may think that meeting people over the Internet is only for disenfranchised or socially unqualified people. Anyway, all those bad experiences are described in a funny way in the book Plenty Of Freaks-Worst Online Dating Mistakes?, where its author Sidney Prasad mixes several quotes of his authorship to affirm the stories that are generally linked to the population of Indian origin living in Canada. However, these experiences, which are fictitious and funny, are universal in nature.
    If you are thinking about online dating and have never done it before, read this book that, although it is fiction, will prepare you for what comes next.

    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 4, 2025

    Plenty Of Freaks - Worst Online Dating Mistakes - a pretty entertaining read - though he does seem a little prudish in his outlooks. Having done a lot of online dating in the distant past I have experienced a lot of stuff but was usually able to filter out the waste of times before actually meeting them. The only times I was surprised or it didn't lead to a short relationship was when they lied about their age and put up a 10 year old photo on the dating site. Having said all this it was an amusing read for the most part. I kinda feel it would be almost better narrated to emphasise the humour aspect.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Ironico, brillante e tremendamente realistico: impossibile non ridere (e riflettere)!
    Reviewed in Italy on September 9, 2025
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    Se vi è mai capitato di cimentarvi con gli incontri online, sapete già che non sempre l’esperienza è “rose e fiori”. A volte sembra un’avventura emozionante, altre volte si trasforma in un viaggio assurdo nel mondo dell’imprevedibile. Ed è proprio qui che Plenty Of Freaks: Worst Online Dating Mistakes! colpisce nel segno.

    L’autore prende situazioni che molti di noi hanno vissuto o temuto – il famoso “non ascoltare l’istinto”, il messaggio a cui si risponde controvoglia, l’appuntamento che inizia male e finisce peggio – e le trasforma in un racconto esilarante. Non è solo un elenco di disavventure, ma una vera e propria commedia umana, raccontata con intelligenza, ritmo e un’ironia travolgente.

    Ho riso di gusto in più di un passaggio, ma allo stesso tempo mi sono ritrovato a pensare a quante volte anche io ho ignorato quel campanello d’allarme interiore. È questa la forza del libro: ti diverte con aneddoti folli e grotteschi, ma sotto la superficie c’è sempre un richiamo sottile a fidarsi di se stessi, a non avere paura di dire “no” e a non accettare compromessi solo per paura della solitudine.

    Lo stile è leggero e scorrevole, perfetto per una lettura serale o in viaggio: ti cattura subito e non riesci a smettere fino all’ultima pagina. Ogni episodio è descritto in modo vivido, quasi cinematografico, tanto che sembra di essere lì, seduti al tavolo del “date” più strano della propria vita.

    Consiglio questo libro a chiunque abbia voglia di ridere delle proprie disavventure sentimentali, a chi cerca una lettura divertente ma con spunti di riflessione, e a tutti coloro che credono che l’amore (o anche solo il dating) sia un terreno dove la realtà supera sempre la fantasia.

    Una lettura fresca, ironica e incredibilmente attuale. Dopo averlo finito, non solo vi ritroverete con il sorriso sulle labbra, ma probabilmente sarete anche un po’ più attenti al prossimo “match” online.

    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 14, 2024
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    Plenty of Freaks - Worst Online Dating Mistakes by Sidney S Prasad, is the third book I’ve read about the authors views on dating.

    In this instalment Prasad discusses the topic of worst online dating mistakes. Behind the cover of this book the author talks about 10 separate incidents of dating mistakes, the majority of those are from his experiences. Alongside the ‘stories’ he puts quotes that obviously he thinks are humorous but from reading his previous books again there isn’t humour, some of them are crude and demeaning to women.

    The amount of bad luck this author has supposedly had dating women I do wonder if the stories written in this book are real or if he just likes to paint women in a bad light.

    Would I recommend this author, absolutely not on the books he writes about dating…thank goodness they are so short!
