Landmark day

[SirNigel]

Now, I know most of you don't care.....I'm hardly a die hard contributer, with less than 30 posts, but I've punted for over 20 years now. Happily divorced, but also happily on my way to marriage number 2.

I worked out today I've probably blown £50,000 + on punts. Done the shit parlours, all the way through to blowing £500 (for 1 sodding hour) on some USA porn stars. Had some amazing £70 punts that exceeded expectations. And boy, have I done some rotters.

But today, I had a great punt. She was hot. Glamour model looks, huge tits. Hot. 9 out of 10. Enthusiastic, great service.

But, I felt empty.....never have I felt like this. I'm a dog.....I'd fuck anything that moved. But today I was hanging out the back of a stunning fuck doll, and I wanted to stop.

This is not the place to announce punting retirement (I can hear the cry's of, give it 2 weeks), but never have I felt like this - sure, had some bad punts where you say enough is enough, and then the next day, you're searching for your next fix.

But no. With dick in a sopping wet pussy, having an awesome fuck, I decided to stop there and then.

I used to punt the equivalent of 60 smokes a day. I'm now on 3 a day. In punting terms I'm down to 2 or 3 punts every 3 months......which is less than my hayday of 2 to 3 a week!

I'm sad in a way, but none of my mates know  my secret life. Which is why I write this. Many of you will question why I say this in a forum like this. I'm sad having had a 20 year hobby that I want to give up. But I have nobody to share this with.

I've tried to stop over last few years, but just kept coming back. But this is different.

Anyone else felt they really wanted to stop?

Or, has anyone said that's it, but gone back to their old ways?

Sounds like your bored, you think you know what you want and maybe stuck in your ways.  Something off the wall may cure or maybe a break !

[yorkshire123]

I decided to have a short break from punting when I realised it was becoming more of a habit than pure enjoyment.

That was 10 months ago & I haven't punted since making that decision.

Would I call myself an ex-punter? Would I bollocks, I'm still a punter its only a matter of when not if.

[SirNigel]

You've hit the nail on the head......a habit.

The buzz is not what it once was.

Also, sex at home is great (when it used to be shit/non-existent with the ex), so I don't need it like I used to.

Today was one of best WG'a I've been with for years - maybe that's why. As in, she's sexy, hot etc, but it wasn't giving me what I needed.....

[DG]

I'm at the opposite end of the experience spectrum, only started punting just over a year ago, but for the past three months I've only seen the one girl who I see once a fortnight. I've found that indiscriminate shagging with different girls, no matter how hot, just doesn't do it for me. I found I was leaving every punt wondering what I could have done with the money, usually concluding I should have seen my regular again, so I do.

The personal touch and intimacy I get with her is clearly what I am looking for rather than a quick shag. Had a great afternoon with her yesterday, bit of lunch and a chat with a cuppa interspersed with amazing but intimate sex. We still manage a good deal of variety, even after 24 meets and I never leave feeling anything other than total fulfilment. Maybe I'm just lucky. If she were to retire, I think I would too; but who knows??

[Mr Br1ghts1de]

Interesting post.

I'm not there yet, but I fancy I might be coming to the end of a punting journey soon.

Thanks to this site I have had some awesome experiences over the last couple of years, but I am now seriously wondering how I can top them.

I still have some punts planned, but in Sir Nigel's parlance, I think I'm on my final lap and will be taking a break or quitting by the year end.

Indeed I have, in 2010 after a very intense period of 3 years punting I was feeling jaded and needed a break, I took 6 months off and returned refreshed, I then had a 4 year period of punting but am currently on a punting break though that's because I met someone and haven't wanted to punt for a while.

What I know though is its only a matter of time before I will punt again, been a punter for over 30 years and have no intention of ever giving up completely until dead or unable to do so.

[shagbambi]

I get where you are coming from.  I am no longer punting at every opportunity which means I have slowed down considerably. Plan on sticking with a handful of regs going forward.

[jsparky]

Sure, we all have that feelings before after some despondent punts, don't worry, you'll be alright in two weeks time. 

Now, links please for the glamour girl!

I think it's fair to say that "I know that feeling"...

[threechilliman]

Some very good posts on here so I'm not going to quote anyone in particular. To the OP, if sex is great at home, maybe that's the reason for feeling jaded. Stop for a bit. Save some money. The one thing I would say is don't over-think it. Remember, you can always punt again when ever you want - the girls will still be there next week, next month, next year. Don't feel guilty if it's regulars you think you're letting down - they'll find someone else to fill your slot. But they'll make time for you if ever you want to go back.

Maybe you've found true happiness with your new partner?

[Hawkwind71]

The honesty of this site is its true worth.

I married at 20 to a girl I loved but neither of us really had any experience. We did all the basics but oral was only tried once or twice and neither of us liked it. My recourse was Playboy magazine if a wank was needed.

After 20 years the internet gave me access to a world I barely knew. I was curious but the AIDS scare was still rampant so it was all still visual. I have lead a sheltered life. The turning point for me was the wife developing a condition that means she can no longer have sex. That was five years ago and after a period of frustration I have had 2 years of the most amazing sex in all positions.

The result is I am living the lifestyle I missed as a  youth. The whole idea of having the most gorgeous women willing to fuck me is only a dream I could have had 40 years ago. That is why I know I am in for the long haul. Even if I only get ten years it won't be enough. I'm going to go to the big guy with the biggest fuckin smile on my face.

I pray I never become jaded by the site of a magnificent ass bouncing against my cock or my face buried in a pussy.  I am entitled to this .

 I wish the OP well, if the sex is good at home then go for it.

[slow and low]

Got 26 years under my belt but definitely punting less. Too many providers now failing to provide vfm so finding a quality young lady is like finding ice in the Sahara these days. I've got other things that want to spend money on and if I can do that instead of on a skank with no interest in providing a good service then I feel better. That's the biggest problem - coming out of a punt and thinking that was good but I could have got the flatscreen 40". Constant battle juggling priorities in your life as punting when habitual can become the driving force to the detriment of other things.

I think you are right - I have found true happiness with my partner.

In all my punting life, I never had one regular. It would always be about variety.

I've always seen punting as a habit/vice that I knew I wanted to stop but could never find the will power.

I've had many a shit punt and said I'd stop, but this time it's different.....can't explain how/why, but I think finding happiness is it....shagging a hot model there and then made me feel empty.

[Sureshot]

I had a 15year break at which point the whole punting thing was becoming consuming. I was spending money i didnt have, shagging any whore that was available - not because i fancied her, just because i needed a "fix".  Even cancelling family engagements just so i could go out and pick up a prostitute.

During those 15years the itch never left until earlier this year i caved in and started back again.

Bit of head searching and i think ive got it under control, not punted for nearly 2months but have a "bucket list" job lined up for tomorrow.

Youve got to do what makes you feel right, it is an addiction but dont let it get out of hand and know when to pull the reigns in.

[threechilliman]

But I have nobody to share this with.

One of the problems with this hobby. As with a lot of things, when things go wrong you need someone to talk to.

I had a 'toys out of pram' moment earlier in the week after a bucket list punt I'd had booked for a while went pear-shaped on me. No contact from the girl since the booking was agreed, but I've had word since that there may have been a reason for it. That's when you need a buddy and thankfully I have a few on here - one in particular knows he helped me this week.

It's a funny old game this.

[MancSean]

I am on a slow down period at mo but will never say I am quitting or won't punt again as I know me and how when I get the urge I will punt. Was my birthday on Tuesday woke up thinking I will treat myself to a birthday punt as took day off work. Could I find a hooker to shag could I fuck.  I have had a great year punting this year done lots of things to feed my perversions but now I have become more picky and know who and what I want to do. Trouble is the girls I want to punt with all live a fair distance from me and my appetite to drive 2 hours or more is waning. But at some point I will bite the bullet in next few weeks so I can try a levels with one of my favourites as for some reason not done her where the sun don't shine yet.
But I just think unless there are very legitimate reasons like meeting someone I want to spend my spare time with or my cock drops off there is no reason to state to the world I am quitting as it would be farcical

[Boundless]

Great posts on here and yes its good to have guys to share feelings with.

I've now got to the stage where I'm punting out of habit instead of need or wanting to tick off a particular girl i.e.  the bucket list syndrome.
It used to be - day off = opportunity so who shall I see, even it wasn't the best WG.

Now I'm more discerning, in fact, too much so as I haven't punted for a couple of months as I'm finding it hard to justify making a particular choice.

I do have a couple of bucket list punts planned for the next month or so, watch this space.

[vw]

Agree there, in my extended career I have had lulls and peaks, think its the same with any hobby.  Some football fans miss a season ticket every so often doesn't mean they don't check the scores !

[claretandblue]

Lots of people slowing down or on a break, I could be wrong and the stats might say different but it's certainly felt like there have been less new reviews,certainly in the London area,being posted and a much higher percentage of the ones that are being posted are from members with very few posts

Its some thing we do because we can  and when the time comes that you are thinking I wonder what a slim big titted girls tits will swing like when Ive got her on the edge of a coffe table     .....Thats when you turn around and start again .over 30 plus years Ive never given up I just have breaks I have to say that even with the blue pill things aint what they used to be and the buzz is not there even with an iron bar in a young beauty
Thats life mate she is just there cause your cash is there and its easy for her , charming and keeping a full time partner and building alife together is much much harder and rewarding it sounds like thats what you have found mate Good luck with her and life remember a fuck is all you get with a prossie in exchange for cash. All that emotanal stuff that goes with other girls is far far more difficult to deal with thats why I reckon you are saying this a pang of guilt has come in to you..all the best

[purple_t]

Link to the glamour model stunner?

[LoneWolf2020]

you will never totally quit but i do think that poor quality prossies who's only interest is rinsing you for as much money as they can for doing as little as possible is certainly to blame for the recent spate of 'retirements'. Yes, of course they are all in it for the money but you get some that are just in it for the money....then there are the ones who actually take pride in giving a good service and are genuine slags too (my favourite)

[SamLP]

I'm quite the newbie compared to most punters here as I've only been punting for a year and a half but can also share the same feelings. I took up punting because I was single but I've been punting out of habit lately and have even stopped seeing my regulars preferring to see other girls or unreviewed girls to keep the excitement up. Still not the same satisfaction as being in a relationship. It's the emotional part that is lacking which makes a punter feel empty afterwards. I've also contemplated giving this up and it looks more and more likely I will, hopefully this year.

In my case nothing could be further from the truth but obviously I don't speak for all, all I can say is in my last few months of punting regulars & newbies alike all put in the effort yet the pre/post punt excitement I once felt had all but gone.   

[LoneWolf2020]

Or, has anyone said that's it, but gone back to their old ways?

Without in any way wishing to judge married guys that punt (because the reasons are varied and many, and I have sympathy for many of them - there, but for the Grace of God, go I...) - you're about to be married for the 2nd time?

Unless your intended knows of your habit on the side, I think you're doing exactly the right thing by giving up. Why on earth would you go into a fresh marriage, punting (and lying) at the outset? I think that would be a cruel lie.

Good luck to you in your new marriage, Sir Nigel  .








...I give it 3mths before you start punting again...

The only times I stopped punting was when I was in a meaningful relationshit... and by meaningful I mean where I had good sex from it and usually from girlfriends, lovers and/or swingers. It is true that when sex is great punting becomes less relevant. So in between lovers and swingers I punt. Admittedly I punt a lot more now than when I was in my 30s and 40s (I'm older, fatter, uglier so finding new lovers is harder).

I think it's a good idea to have variety, prossies, lovers, platonic female friends, it all adds up to a "fulfilling" life IMHO. Sticking to one of those only all the time makes you become jaded.

To me that old cliche is very true, variety is the spice of life.

...agreed...

[G-style]

A very interesting set of views. To the OP, congratulations on finding that special person.
Like many of the others I find that my enthusiasm is waining. Is it because we all have such high expectation.  At one time even just the thought of pounding some young 20 something from behind while watching it in the full length mirror would have been laughable. Now I find that afterwards i come away feeling disappointed, she didn't give good DFK, she didn't make eye contact while licking my balls, i didn't get to come twice or give her a facial ...
Perhaps a break is the answer.
Thanks for listening and yes it's good to share (as long as our cocks don't touch.. shudder!!)

[cueball]

Good post and thread op.

Lots of genuine comments on here, whatever your decision is, only you can make it.

I do "get" your feeling of wanting to express your thoughts on here, for most of us, this is the only place we can share our hobby.

Whatever you decide, as far as I'm concerned you'd still be a welcome contributor on here.

[hornypnter]

Anyone else felt they really wanted to stop?

Or, has anyone said that's it, but gone back to their old ways?

I started punting because the sex was shit with my long term partner as an avenue to try things out that my partner would not. Prior to that I didn't even think about punting because everything was great in the relationship.

When my first 2 punts went very well I guess I was hooked.

Yeah whenever I had shit punts I thought about giving up BUT still ended up punting.

When I met my current wife and got married I had no problem stopping punting. But after 2 years of marriage I have returned to punting.
In my case I don't know if I will be able to give it up completely until I am on my deathbed or if my sex drive slows down. 

[Hawkwind71]

This is such a good thread OP and please understand I am just playing devil's advocate.
I admire your decision to give up punting for true love. It's great when it happens.

For me I have always be in awe of the true female figure. I was in awe when I was 20
and was too shy to really make a go. In awe when I was 40 and the girls in my workplace were
definitely up for it. In awe now as I hit 60 but the difference is finally I have the means to enjoy.

So I've done my true love bit, done my faithful husband bit...... now its my turn to enjoy and
as long as I can I will. 

[hendrix]

Good posts here. As many of you will know, I haven't punted for a while now having been a 2 or more a week man for years. I don't have any desire to punt at the moment and although that might change, I don't know how/when. I've had breaks before but always felt like I would be back, and I was. This time is definitely different. Just feels like a chapter over somehow 

[DG]

It's interesting reading how other members feels about this excellent thread. Makes me wonder if I'm punting at all? For the last three months I've only seen one girl, pretty much once a fortnight. Yes she's an escort and yes I pay, but it doesn't feel that way. Every other girl I've seen it was very much a 'punt', some I went back to and some I haven't.

As I mentioned before on this thread, if she retired, I might well give it up too. I haven't logged onto AW for ages and certainly have no desire to book anyone new, or even revisit some old great punts. Time will tell but I definitely get where the OP and others are coming from. Never had a long break, except an enforced one due to ill health, so don't know how I would react to that. But no matter how you play this game, I guess if you continue to enjoy it, and there are no obstacles, then most of us will keep going. If things change, like meeting someone, or the thrill leaves you, then why not hang up your punting pants, for a while anyway?

[threechilliman]

So I've done my true love bit, done my faithful husband bit...... now its my turn to enjoy and
as long as I can I will. 

I'm with that. Kids have always had what they want as has my wife and I've often gone without - not that it was a major issue, I'm not materialistic and enjoy the simple things in life. But my kids are now grown up and support themselves pretty much meaning I've been able to indulge myself a little with girls and enjoy my boys toys.

tcm

[shagbambi]

In my case I know what I like.  Variety was always key and I barely ever saw a girl more than once.  But I have realized very few women truly do it for me and take things to a different level. Hence the scaling back and focusing on a few really great girls.  I suppose it's a new phase in my punting life. How good can things get with a regular.

[SirNigel]

Funnily enough, I thought about the link to said glamour model......but, I thought that might look bad on her!

It's like leaving your wife for another man!!!

She might think her BAD service made me "want" to give up punting.

But she was good.....couldn't complain.

So, out of respect to her (I doubt she'd ever know) I didn't think it was right.

Happy to say, it was in the MK area.

[Watts.E.Dunn]

Well that narrows it down a tad then, HHD is she the good un there?.

Much the same Nige here single now after having been married 20 years but not going mad on punting at the moment. If the right girl come along and it is good then I might well pack it in. 

Till then I won't:)

Mental Diminished reward ! possibly, and is most usually followed by want and need again, just depends how long.

I spend thousands on footy each year 2 season tickets at Old Trafford plus cup games extra plus away games.  And going to European away games costs a bomb.  And despite united playing shite since fergie retired the guilt of giving it up would be much worse than giving any woman up. One of the reasons me and my ex split up was coz of football.  She hated me spending my weekends at football and then rugby league in the summer.  So I got her season tickets for united and wigan warriors. She went to 3 games hated I knew so many women in the pubs pre and post match although non of them were fit and her jealousy took over. But no way I would give it up not even after 10 years of living together. I guess that's why I am single now coz I am a selfish twat but a happy twat too
Just think I have an addictive personality whether it be hookers weed or booze but now it seems to be body art and that's not cheap either when taken to extremes either

[jcdmj12]

When I was younger, I used to go out partying all the time and get off my face on various illegal substances.  Most of the time it was a lot of fun, you felt amazing, and had some really incredible, memorable times. Then you fell into the habit of doing it because it was what you did, and at some point (if you had any sense), you realised that it wasn't really fun any more, and gave it a rest for a bit, to make it feel 'special' again.

I'm far too old for that stuff now, so I punt instead.  And I view punting exactly like taking drugs; it makes you feel great, but once it becomes a habit, it can get boring and then make you feel miserable. Then it's time to take a break for a bit.  Although I spend more in real terms on prossies now, as a proportion of my income it's far less than it was, but overall it feels similar. A little break from real life that's fun when you keep it to that.

[foreverandever]

Felt pretty much the same yesterday after a good 6 months of hammering it 2 or 3 times a week. Not arsed about the cash now it's gone but hated getting that shit empty feeling after a punt when the build up to it was always so exciting. Been at it on and off(mostly on) for 28 years now and know everywhere in Mcr and its surroundings but getting that jaded feeling and probably going to knock it on the head for a bit, still look in here and maybe post the odd review from a while back (as long as the brass is still active). But I know I'll be back because it is the one thing that you can control and enjoy yourself that you don't need to share if you don't want to apart from on a top forum like this.

Anyway fancy United for a bit of a run in Europe this year so I'll need my pennies for that!!

Hasta la vista

Possibly though considering sir nigel has spent over 50k on punting it couldn't hurt to give a little back to the forum!

this time it's different.....can't explain how/why, but I think finding happiness is it....shagging a hot model there and then made me feel empty.

I often feel the emptiness after a punt. Immediately afterwards if it was shit. If it was a good punt it usually hits me a couple of days later and lasts for a few days. A massage is the best cure. Tops up my self-worth and subsequently puts me in the mood to punt again and thus the cycle continues.
I wish I could quit but I'm just a man
