As the topic name suggests, what was the first trigger/influence that made you decide to punt?
Not to be confused with another topic called 'Reasons for punting?' But rather what flipped that switch inside of you to decide punting is actually quite alright?
So to start this off I'm still fairly new to the punting scene (started a few months ago), before I got pulled in, I use to be one of those guys who believed punters/punting in general was vulgar, indecent, undignified yaknow that sort of thing, sorry gentlemen I was naive. But even though I use to believed in those sort of things, I was still a man with a libido at the end of the day. And due to work, I rarely ever get the chance to be able to socialise with others to the point where I can get into bed with them, and the ones that I'd be able to, aren't a good idea to do so - and I have a rule for myself NEVER start a romantic/sexual relationship with anyone at work, it never ends well.
Now this only leaves me with 2 choices, either go out to bars and clubs and try my luck, or have friends recommend me someone, but with friends like mine majority being typical mid 20s 'banter lads' yeah no, not a chance it's going to end well, too much rumors and drama to get involved in. So it's going have to be the 1st choice and as you all know the chances of going to bars/clubs, and succeeding in actually pulling someone is slim even for my age, if you're lucky you might get a snog but that's about it. The amount that I spend on nights out could literally pay for a hour or two with a lovely escort instead, this is probably the start of the trigger switching halfway, not fully yet.
So what partially triggered it furthered, was some guy on one of my social media sites leaked a bunch of nudes of girls from my local town and others nearby, being curious I checked out the link containing the leaks (now deleted) and noticed a watermark on some of the nudes, so I followed the watermarked link to another website, and from there on somehow got me onto Adult-Work and I recognised a couple of girls from the nudes. At this point I still never punted before, but started to get curious about it, and was at the back of my mind fantasying about it, but didn't really do anything with that thought. Few weeks passed since then, I'm on lunch at a coffee shop, and sure enough one of the girls from the nude and Adult-Work site, happen to be queuing up in the same coffee shop which I was in. At first I didn't recognise her instantly, but distinctively remembered her shoulder tattoo and hairstyle, and within seconds I recognised her, now i couldn't help but gaze at her and her body, and thought to myself wow I could literally phone that number up on her adultwork site and she could literally be wrapping her legs around me, but as per usual the thought played around in the back of mind until.
The final trigger was probably watching Wolf of the Wallstreet that did it for me, I know seriously watching a movie? I think just seeing Leonardo DiCaprio causally banging escorts openly and everyone's reaction and views towards it being generally acceptable with it, I just thought fuck it, why not and decided to do my research with the whole punting scene, the risks involved, the legal and whats illegal, what to expect, and how to stay safe etc. I finally decided to go along with it and had an amazing time. I have to say now a big thank you to Adultwork and UK Punting for providing informative details and reviews, and Leonardo DiCarpio for pulling me into the punting scene and losing my punting cherry!
so guys what was your trigger?
