For me, if I am getting it at home, I have no need to punt. I have had punting breaks of over a year, and would again.
When the carrot is dangled and then withdrawn, repeatedly, I get to the point where I set a date in my head. When that date is reached, with no carrots, I punt.
Last night, with a Craigslist civvie almost half my age, was one of the best punts I've ever had, if she started escorting properly, I'd be a whithered husk of my magnificent self :-)
