Do you think you will ever stop punting?

[Jock D]

I have punted now for 23 years and with the odd short break always come back cannot see a time when I will ever stop.  Initially I started in my mid twenties as I was single and wanted easy sex, tried to stop when I got back into a relationship but the lure of the punting spotlight meant I was soon back.

Having been in a relationship for many years now the days of mindblowing sex has long gone, these days its a case of a quick tit sucking and then into mish for the finish off, as for anything else forget it.  At 48 years of age I have no wish to have an affair which tbh would probably fizzle out quite quickly so punting is just great for me, at my age where else am I going to be able to have great sex with a fit 20+ something girl who makes all the right noises (literally) and makes all the right moves.  One thing is certain I am not going to get a blowjob at home so for me punting is here to stay...what about you ????

Similar scenario...I'm 4 years older than you and been punting for 4/5 years longer. The only break I've had in all that time is approximately 2 years...2011-13, when I was in a relationship. I think the only thing that would stop me punting is either a lack of finances or the blue pills stop working.

[ManinBeds]

If I remain single then not anytime soon, although in the past few years have slowed down the frequency of punts just don't feel up for it as often as I used to. Probably down to being a bit older and my perception of some punts being slightly better when I first started in 2001 if my memory serves me correctly.

[Sureshot]

Ive had more "last punts" than i care to remember but im still at it.

Havent dipped since last december, im trying to break the habbit but its tough.

Having been a punter all my adult life i doubt ill ever completely stop.

[Happylad]

I hope to keep going for a bit longer yet, but we all die some day, and I`m a bit nearer than most of you lot.

[tomwest87]

I put aside approx £30 a week and punt when I feel like it, it's currently at £250  so a few reviews will be going up on Sunday night 

[nervous1]

Like alcohol, it's not something I'll ever be able to eliminate with free will but cutting back is manageable.  I've had 4 punts since last summer (3 this year) and I've enjoyed the recent ones because I don't do it as much now.  A couple of years ago I was punting quite regularly before I hit a brick wall.

Latest punt, I forgot how exciting it was exchanging texts with a WG I've never seen before only to find out when I get there that she's a cracker    It will take a mighty fine woman or a serious illness to make me give that up completely.

[dbank95]

Used to punt once a month or so, now I'm trying to stop completely or limit it to once a year. Basically cannot justify the habit with the income I'm on. If I had the finances it would be a weekly thing. I had an epiphany that I was basically taking the wages of a couple days work and spending in on a one hour punt and decided to stop. I'm a younger guy so might get back into punting a lot more a few years down the trot.

Jeeez if I was spending that proportion of my wages on punting I would stop immediately

Exactly my circumstances!

[bearcat69]

I think it's highly unlikely I'd ever completely give up. I think I could stop for months, years, maybe even decades, but I think I'd always have it in the back of my mind that I could wake up one day and just go and have a punt, as long as the sexual desire and ability to function is there. Even if I became properly skint, I could scrap together £70 if I really wanted to.

[mr.bluesky]

Or the cock fails to respond.     

When my cock fails to respond I'll start taking the little blue pill ( especially now it's available to buy direct over the counter)

[adamza]

My first punting experience was an ill-advised drunken podging of an, admittedly stunning, Latvian girl whilst on holiday 2 years ago. It wasn't a particularly amazing experience, however it did open my eyes to this world that I'd never even considered previously.

I was briefly in a relationship last year and didn't punt whilst with the ex - I'd like to think that would still be the case with a future OH - however, I can't be sure that would be guaranteed if the sex dried up in the relationship.

Financially, I am fortunate enough to be able to punt as much as I want (well I could probably do it weekly) - however to keep it under control I don't punt unless I'm working overtime at work - so it doesn't affect my "normal" salary. Thankfully, overtime is pretty much always available so I can't envisage a break from podging anytime soon 

[cerealpunter]

Jeeez if I was spending that proportion of my wages on punting I would stop immediately 

I'm sure for a lot of punters £150+ (I know there are cheaper punts) of disposable income (after tax etc) takes a (good) few hours to earn, certainly part of the reason I'm not punting at the moment

[Jamboney]

I don't think I'd ever give up punting completely. I've never been a prolific punter from day 1 but I am punting less and less, with only 1 punt so far this year that was back in January. The lack of quality in the area I'm in means my disposable income going on other things.

[BlueRock]

I've stopped for years when in a relationship. If I was in a relationship where the woman didn't start to withdraw sex I would probably stop the habit altogether. As it goes most women seem to switch over to infrequent "service sex" by year 4 so they deserve to be cheated on and I will no doubt punt to supplement a boring diet!

[Razor Boy]

I started punting in 2000 as the first wife turned the tap off and it was quite a different hobby then with not as much option as we have now I suggest .
Kept punting using a local agency until the death of the first marriage in 2003. New girfriend was great in bed and my finances (Divorce etc) took a hit so stopped naturally then. A few more sexually good girlfriends came and went until I remarried in 2010 and visited Lady Marmalade parties as a last batchelor gift to myself after not punting for quite a few years. Had a great time and even though I got married, I visited LMP whenever I was in London (couple of times a year)
Apart from that I didn't 1:1 punt until three years ago as I was getting bored with the OH and the vanilla action. I found that there were fantastic looking girls doing way more things as a norm than I had access to previously, so I am now three years back in, have a budget of £150 a month and have a great time. I can't now envisage giving up....unless I was found out by the OH 

OH is away for two weeks abroad on business and I am currently in the middle of  my April Cardiff Whore Tour and yesterday had the best punt I have ever had (10/10 for the first time) and have two more to go this week. First time I have spent anywhere near the £700+ i'm going to shell out this  month and it's been worth every penny so far!
The girls now, if research is done well, are way too good for me to contemplate giving up and at 56 the OH isn't going to suddenly turn into a horny little minx 

[zinger]

I've been doing this the last 5 years (started at 25) and can't see myself stopping any time soon.

I love it and am hooked, not gonna lie. The principle of it kills me though, especially when it has removed any interest in getting a GF or having civilian sex.

Oh well, at least it's better than being hooked on some hard drugs.

[JonasG]

Interesting reading this thread.

Once you start you can never truly stop it seems.

I worry about still doing this when I have kids tbh, from my POV.

Noticed this.

My cousin's mate showed an interest and normally I would've reciprocated, I mean she's nothing special but you'd fuck her, I didn't reciprocate the interest and she moved onto someone else.

But I thought can't be asked for the effort of a 6.5/10 girl when I can just go amd fuck a fit one tomorrow if I wanted.

Not good.

Couldn't agree more - it's my single biggest worry.

[Poundboundround]

Very likely but not anytime soon, I mean there are less Polish and Czech women around compared to a few years ago.

All that are left are rommies and English WGs. The former we all know about their infamous reputation and the latter are catching up to being just as shite but now charging more each year whilst still growing older, fatter and uglier 

[Steve Jones.]

Don't think I'll give up unless ill health or lack of money occurs. Began punting at a late age due to a sexless marriage and still enjoy the fact I can pick up the phone for my choice of lady. I have 3 regulars but still enjoy the occasional meet with someone new.

Yeah, it's interesting that actually, as the post you made earlier in this thread was eerily similar to a post I made when I first joined this forum and had been punting for about 6 months at the time.

The 'just something I need to try and then get out of my system then I'll stop' post.

Makes me think that I guess when I first started punting, I thought certain negative things about myself for punting. I worried a lot about the morals of it, the cost of it, and the risk involved. Whilst I wouldn't say I've completely stopped worrying about such things, I would say that it's too a much lesser degree now. Overall I enjoy doing it, much more than I expected to actually. I think ultimately, I would never really stop unless I just completely stopped enjoying. Even then, I think even if I had multiple shit punts in a row, it would be hard to ignore the thought that the next punt could be something really enjoyable.

[Malvolio]

As long as I've got the cash and can still get it up, I won't stop.  Don't think I can be bothered with a long-term relationship with a woman who will realistically be in my age range (so 40+) when I can get my hands on fit twenty-somethings with a quick phone call.

[Danger!WillRobinson]

Nope. Been at it, on and off, for nigh on 30 years (now early 50s). Briefly stopped when 1st got married, but wife's medical condition got me started again. Whilst I'd love the thrill of some civvie taking an active interest in me, I'm not looking to leave the OH and set up with anyone else, so punting allows me to compartmentalise the sex side of things from the rest of my life. Will only probably stop if the money runs out.

[cash2spare]

If finances allow I will always consider shagging a fit young 20 something lass as realistically at my age I'm not going to pull one.
It's a great feeling (to me anyway) when drilling my cock inside a nice tight young pussy/arse and gives me a sexual confidence boost!
Sure I pick up older ladies from dating sites on the net and some are right randy fuckers but nowt beats a young fit bird sucking my cock.

Indeed.

I think once you start regularly that's it, it'll always be there as an option in your life...you may not do it as consistently as you once did but you'll always know for 80 quid and a few clicks and a text and a 20 minute drive you'll be fucking someone.

As easy as that.

[DouglasReynholm]

I'd stop if I got back together with my wife - am separated not divorced and we get on very well now we're not together! As you do.

But... Punting is so discreet, in't it? If I carried on, how the fuck would she find out?! When you compare punting to a mistress, it makes a mistress seem ridiculous. You know how some guys are, flash gits sitting in a restaurant with their young bit on the side - in plain sight of 50 people. Twats! 

[hendrix]

No, but I'm on a break now and think it'll be the longest one yet (about a year was the longest before) but bound to be back punting at some point.

[Lacoster]

They’ll start giving it to me eventually, is my belief. So by then, yes.

Who said punters were deluded!!? 

[HughJardon]

I've been on a long break from punting but I still do my weekly /daily check of Awank /UKE & of course check on here,  this leopard may be resting but my spots will never change 

[MrMatrix]

Itoo seem to have hit a dry patch and not had a punt for 7 weeks and not looking to get one for another 3weeks either, No I havent given up and I'm sure I will get back into it at some stage. I still look at AW and drooll. But I do note the longer I leave it , the less inclination I have to go punting .

As my punts were daytime, out of work trips, and im about to retire I feer yes.
I may be retiring from punting as well as work.

Mrs and I seem to go everywhere together...... Niw canI interest her in joining. Probably not.

I may have opportunity for 1 or 2 more this year then hang the condoms up....

Yes my OH retired 2 years ago. And when she goes away for what ever reason, I will go and play, but sometimes I just cant find a suitable booking and miss the open goal- but I move on. The important thing is to have different hobbys and different friends as this does create opportunity. I meet friends every week for one reason or another. If you are due to retire make sure you have a plan is my best advice and I dont mean just for punting. I enjoy my time with MrsM but I also like my own time and you need to set this up before you retire.
Most of my punts are day time still.

[NIK]

No, there were always lowlife skanks -------------- but my cock used to rule my brain.   

I am with Jim on this one.
Don’t know how many punts I have had. I have about 550 listed, but some I definitely missed so it must be around 600 or so. Many of these were returns (if I met a good one I stuck with her) so I have seen nowhere near 600 women. Maybe 350 or so, but out of all those punts probably less than 100 have been worth it, whilst probably another 100 or so have been diabolical.
Not a good ratio.

[nten]

I've just had a three month break because I've been working away and tbh I've not missed it but must be curious again because I'm back on here checking out reviews. Never say never.

[webpunter]

That's impressive numbers 
Although the ratios of decent punts / crap ones isn't good as you identify
Bearing in mind that you've been active in this sport for so long me thinks that a reasonably large % of your punts were pre the advent of burds in material numbers showing their wares on the interweb & pre UKP
Maybe even pre-decimalisation 

Not entirely sure of my tally.  Overall no. of times & no. of different women etc - I reckon 250-300 & 150 approx.  As a pure guess.  I'm probably not taking enough risks as the number of diabolical ones is less than 5%.  I regard these as an occupational hazard.  And only really one crap punt since being on here start of 2014.  That was a parlour visit to Passions in Manchester at 1am in the morning & even then i managed to shoot my bolt despite being bladdered.  So not entirely a wasted outing.  This proves how valuable UKP is 

As for giving up ? This will stop when littleWP can't stand to attention.  I'm sure as i get older the desire & hence frequency will diminish but this is expected.  If i ever get diagnozed with a terminal disease then hopefully i'll have enough time to have a final flurry.  Then book a one way ticket to Switzerland

[Home Alone]

Well, I never thought I would, but after a punting career of 13 years, I'm kind of getting close to it.

I've my once-a-month Regular; and my local Escort who lives 2 - 3 miles from me who I see once every three months or so.

Recently, I've been trying out some Reasonably-Priced Escorts but either I'm getting picky in my old age - 72 now - or there have been little things which have become irksome. These could be various things: travel difficulties this winter; the hoops we have to go through to make a booking with some girls; others not replying to polite requests on AW from a punter with good feedback; etc. But all of them have made me a bit disenchanted with our pastime.

2 other symptoms of this are that I'm closer to being in a relationship than since the OH pissed off 15 years or so ago; and I've not checked my current spend for 2018 but it certainly feels significantly less than for any of the last 3 years.

So, never say never; but I feel closer to retiring than I ever thought I would.

[Tony_Red]

I think I had my last punt a couple months ago. It was with a WG I have seen about 4-5x, but she felt like a 'regular' because she didn't work often and never really clockwatched with me. Anyway she's close to packing it in and I told her I wanted to as well. She said a few (nice) things and we said our goodbyes and I haven't had the urge to punt since. She was the best I had seen and I just can't be arsed anymore. The other WGs who I rated have all gone too

[Haruki]

Well to be fair the people on this forum are likely to be the ones still punting.
I'm single so happily punt but I'd like to think I would stop if in a happy relationship.  However I do agree with above comments that I am less likely to seek a relationship while escorts are on tap

[bushman]

Up to two months ago I was a serious punter. And like some of you the novelty has started to worn off. I am beginning to feel sadness for these young girls every time since then. They fuck a bastard like me for money. Who in their right mind chooses to do this for a living?

I think it’s time to settle down and go get it on with a civvie. Maybe I should put a few quid into a SB and help her through University and then stop.

I think many girls are drawn to vice for lots of different reasons. I think it far too broad a generalisation to suggest all are "desperate" cases!

For some "working" gives access to a luxury lifestyle complete with the trappings of wealth, for others the circumstances are far more dire.

I see mostly agency girls, and most of them seem to do this part time in addition to their "real job". I don't think I've ever seen a girl that I thought was doing it out of desperation (not that I'm saying they don't exist).

Most of the girls I've seen seem to do it to "top up" their wages, to fund their expensive tastes, or even as a way to save up money quickly (e.g. for a house).

Yes, I understand why you say what you are saying. However doing it to safe money, luxury lifestyle etc. all come at a price.
Maybe they don't know it at the moment but at sometime in the future the shadows of the past come back to haunt you. I know, I had to go for a talk because they say some off my behaviour when younger could be PTSD, due to activities I partook in.
You can never escape the dark.

[Tony_Red]

Of course, none of them want to do it, but where else are they going to make similar money from?

I think all  of us agree it's not something we would want our own daughter to do...but it's okay when it's someone else's! In all seriousness, I think punting has to leave the punter rather than the other way round...that's what i've personally found.

[smartieshouse]

I guess for some girls perhaps the immediate financial benefits outweigh the long term potential harm.

Obviously the power of hindsight is a great thing, but for many people, they only care about the here and the now.

[SJ772]

I am on my longest break from it at 9 months now, but that's mainly down to financial restrictions  I don't think I will ever tire of fucking pretty young 20-somethings no matter how old I get.

True.

Perhaps an analogy can be drawn on the married punter from an emotional perspective who gets caught out!!

The short term "lust" ie the here and now, temporarily outweighs the thoughts of the long term consequences of being caught out.
