Punting Vs Tinder: pros and cons

[Kensal]

So I got in to this lark recently and I've had a great time. The sex has been mostly good, there's very little hassle, different girls who can accommodate and it's all pretty straight cut, you both no the deal, pay your money then leave.

As an attached man the transaction element always made it easier to justify it to myself, it's just sex, a dirty self serving fantasy that bears little to the real world. What she doesn't know won't hurt her....

So fast forward a couple of months and I just can't afford to keep this up financially but I've got a taste for me. I looked at the likes of adult friend finder but quickly decided that while some may enjoy a level of sucess it didn't really tick all the boxes.

Enter tinder, the app I've heard so much about. Now it presents a whole different set of challenges but I tend to be very honest from the outset that I'm after good company and if we click let's shag, no obligations. I fire it up and start getting matches all over the place and they are quite happy to message first.

The average bird I'm matching with is way hotter than the average wgs I was using, it's a hell of a lot cheaper in that a round or two of drinks is the growing rate an importantly it's not their job and they get really genuinely in to it. Some of the messages I get complimenting me as we've done the Deed felt great, yeah so Wg like it, others pretend to but I love the fact it's a genuine two way thing.

Was very nervous for my first meet, after the initial nerves we settled down, shared a bottle then went back to hers for 4 mind blowing sex.  I honestly left hers and had a message begging me to meet so I went round the the house of this girl I only exchanged brief messages with and she's waiting in a night gown and begging for me to grab her tits and stick s finger up her ass.

I now have a network of birds I can call in the area who know the score, don't charge £100+ and make it s real event.

The only major downside is some can get attached and the various stuff you've told each of them needs to be manageable but seriously, I've not punted since. It is sooooo easy.

I literally met one really nervous bird at 22:30 tonight in the dark at a bus stop I said we could meet 30 mins earlier and she was bonkers but in a great way, a little weary but I out her at ease. No shag but considering it was an hour from message to meet and we got quite frisky and now the ground work is done.

Punting is still there as an option in the right context but my goodness tinder is good, where have I been all these years!

[Marmalade]

woohoo . . .

[jackthelad]

Never had any success with tinder. Probably because I'm an ugly bastard!

[anonyorks]

Punting: Guaranteed sex with a stunner with little groundwork and discretion.

Tinder. Your picture in public on a dating site that is used by 100's of people locally to you who will see your face with no guaranteed end product.

Schools broke up early for Christmas?

u been drinking

or daydreaming

[Madone1]

Almost all the hot girls on tinder are robots trying to get you to sign up to there pay to view cam site. The rest are average looking girls that are just complement fishing. Nothing boosts an ugly girls ego  like 20 guys a day telling her how hot she is on the off chance it leads to a shag.

[PatrickCarnes]

Met up with an African on Tinder within a day of joining,  who was telling me to her horror that two men on first Tinder dates wanted to take her to a hotel room. She then asked me what I was looking for and I had to blag. An hour later I'm snogging her and touching her up in the back of the cinema. Tried to get her round to mine a few days later bit she wasn't keen.

[ItalianJoey]

My experiences on things like Tinder tend to follow what I think is the majority...I either match up with a complete hound or on the odd occasion I do match up with an average/above average girl it involves at least a couple of nights of drinks, the odd meal out etc. By the time I get close to anything I've probably spent the equivalent to what I could have spent on a good half hour punt!

[Kensal]

Honestly guys some of you need to give it another go, perhaps put a little more thought in to it. Punting is great and more of a sure thing, I get the appeal but I really think putting a little work in to tinder and you'll have a great network of fuck buddies before long which can work in conjunction with your usual punting.

I've never had so much sex, it's brilliant. And unlike WGs they text you after you leave with a load of firework emoji saying how wonder it was.

After I told one I only wanted casual she decided against, fine by me I thought easy come easy go. She messages me two nights later drunk from
A work event "ok come over I need to be banged, no strings" the sex was amazing.

[HappyandLucky]

Unless Kensal is George Clooneys brother, I would take the post with a bucket load of salt

[Kensal]

There's really no need for salt, I am pretty good looking but you match with an an appropriate range. I'm meeting the one from last night again tonight, I honestly am struggling to fit them all in. I'm not bragging, it's the app! I've probably been with more different woman since using this app in 6 weeks as I did in university halls over two years. It just puts you in contact with the exact right people and makes the whole thing very streamlined and efficient. I don't know why I waited so long.

I even had a offer for a gang bang although just her and me as one of five blokes. I politely decline, the ratios where all wrong.

[Steely Dan]

How long have you worked for Tinder?  Doesn't it make you feel a bit dirty to make up such total bull shit?
(is calling out utter crap the same as feeding the trolls?)

[Uoti2]

I gave Tinder a go and I immediately received hundreds of invitations, from real women who actually existed and were all gorgeous, to have NSA sex with them at once. They were all desperate because they hadn't even slightly given up any hope of meeting a genuine guy as a result of being sent hundreds of explicit messages and cock pics every day from the hordes of sexually frustrated married men who outnumber women ten to one on casual dating websites. They all found me so irresistible that they wanted me to fuck them a.s.a.p. and they had no interest in any kind of intellectual or emotional relationship, or the most rudimentary security measures when meeting a complete stranger from the Internet. Heck, some of them actually offered to pay ME for it.

Unfortunately, I found it impossible to enjoy any of that because for some reason my pants were on fire the whole time.

Nice one.
For me, Tinder would only be an option if I worked away. You run the risk of being seen by someone you know straight away.
If you're  single, fill your boots but expect to sort the wheat from the chaff and probably deal with a few mentalists too.

[Agent W]

Even if this is real, which I rather doubt, the Tinder-style scene isn't going to work for us middle-aged married guys in full-time jobs. Thanks for the reminder

[Sonny Crockett]

Punting all the way for me when I am in the mood and enthusiastic. You get guaranteed sex and can also persue certain experiences i.e. roleplay fantasy, if you go for the right lady.

[willbred]

I'm not George Clooney, I'm married, I don't want my photo on the web and having gone through the bollocks of dating years ago, the mere thought of spending hours  wining, dining etc,with a bird with whom i have no connection hoping for a shag......no thanks, it's punting for me until I'm no longer able to!

[Highlander]

It's weird when you come across an escort you've seen on Tinder! Hmm, swipe left or right?

[Kensal]

I'm surprised by the level of cynicism to be honest. I am fortunately decent enough looking and at 32 seem about the optimum age for this app. I'd never been in any form of Internet date prior and was pretty nervous the first time.

We went for a few drinks and headed back to hers, I meet her weekly now.
Another dirty Welsh girl was walking distance (but too close to be honest) and that was literally wham bam thank you mam. There have been others, all up for a shag (mostly continuing) and no I don't intend to commit. I have met a real range of woman, some really facinating actually including a Muslim Dr. (Although she's making me wait but is a hottie).

That's another advantage, over real life picking up rather than punting but you get exposed to woman you may not typically.

There does see a lot less over 40 on there as I have age parameters  on full so I can see it may not be for ever body.

My personal experince has been really worthwhile.

[Ben4454]

The usual strategy for guys on dating websites is to mass message every female on there trying to get laid. This inflates womens egos because even if you don't like them or wouldn't fuck them in real life you still message them.

Most dating sites are broken. You need to keep the men levels down and female levels up. This is the structure of the modern dating market. Charge men a fair bit and let women get in for free. Only way to keep the levels down. You then need to limit out how many profiles you can message/see per day. Same for women. This is a system that would work for singles. It needs more regulation. All of the dating sites do not do this. The dating market has changed and you need to control female egos by having them recieve less messages. That way when guys message them they're less likely to be ignored and a better experience for all.

[Kensal]

The thing with Tinder is you both have to 'like' one another before you an egage in chat, of course some will still ignore messages and I have the other way but you've got a good basis to
Work from. You also have the benifit of seeing how close you are to one another.  Out of my first 4 matches I made message contact with three and have met them all, banged two of those and the other should happen next date I hope. She is one of two who wouldn't go all the way on first meet.

Anyway it's not for everyone, it's been a revelation for me and I hope some others enjoy similar sucess as I have found. It's like shooting fish in barrels.

[Lilywhite]

Met my ex on Tinder and he was fairly normal, now onto girls and got a date tomorrow.
Not sure how old everyone is here but all my pals 22-30 are on Tinder and are going on dates at least twice a week. Shagging? Maybe not. Free meals? Outings and Cinema trips? 100%
It's the posh girls AW.

[mash]

Interesting post this, and one I was thinking of making myself.

I've used Tinder and OkCupid with relative success, here and abroad. I've met up and shagged a number of girls in the past 18 months, including a couple of real stunners (for example, a half Russian half Kazakh girl, 20 years old, sweet jesus). I currently have 3 fwb on the go.

WG's provide gfe's but at the end of the day, you pay your money, you do the deed. I'm definitely a fan of the chase and knowing a girl *genuinely* wants to fuck you. The sexting in the build up and aftermath is pretty exciting too.

On the plus side for punting, you do get some girls who are pretty poor lays / want to cuddle with you long after you lose interest. Tonight I am meeting a seriously emotionally unstable Maltese girl (but shes blonde with big tits so you know...!). She started crying cos she missed her ex last time I met her). Hopefully my exit strategy works (told her I have a late night conference call, American based clients ya know)

You do need a very thick skin, my hit rate is relatively low BUT its a numbers game so dont lose hope. I also find girls who say they dont want a ons are the biggest sluts of all.

[unclesweetheart]

Don't think Tinder is really going to work for weird looking guys in their late 50s but am glad you younger bastards are having fun.

[Apu]

What a load of shite.

Whats the comparison? Ones a dating app and punting is to pay for sex. Why bother on tinder? Your balls would explode if all your hopes of sex were pinned on a dating app rather than a prossie network.

I am on tinder and I don't go there looking for sex, I do that on AW. I'd never mix the two otherwise success rate would suffer on tinder.

Dunno if I believe the story, I knew a few blokes who get lucky and shagged a few birds and make them side-dishes to their actual partners but they dont half chat the bollocks I just read.

[Two tone]

Don't think Tinder is really going to work for weird looking guys in their late 50s but am glad you younger bastards are having fun.

+1 although a bit younger.

I just want a guaranteed shag & don't want to go through all the usual crap to get that. If I'm dating then I would put the legwork in but I'm not, so it's punting all the way for me.

[LL]

Whilst I don't pretend that I would be as successful at Tinder as you, OP (I'm not a young man any more), I know that I could get a shag out of it with patience and commitment to trying. We all could. I seriously doubt the women I would meet would be as hot as the WGs I punt (or even as young).

However, on a punt everything is on my terms. I reckon the kind of civvy girl you meet from Tinder will meet a lot of different guys. She probably never gets STI tested. She might even be offended if I was to ask her when her last test was. She might be reluctant to perform oral with a condom (which is my personal choice and fine with a prossie but again, the civvy may get offended when asked). In short I feel I'd be putting myself at a greater level of risk by seeking out no-strings sex with civvy girls. And not just the STI risk. With a prossie you don't have to ever see them again after fucking them once, if you don't want to. A civvy girl might expect more. She could create problems for me in my real life. Punting is a second life. I'm anonymous. It's less hassle. Safe (ish!)

[HappyandLucky]

LL, a finely articulated response and agree with you whole heartedly Sir 

[Marmalade]

As I hinted straight off, the OP is a troll, not a punter. Check his posts. No indication he's ever shagged a whore and more or less confesses he doesn't have the balls to try. He has no more place on a punting thread than an Evangelical preaching at a Lady Marmalade Party. Discussions of Tinder, POF, other civvie sites and even swinging at best should be off-topic. They are not in the same category as punting.

As for Mr Tinderfluff, we are so pleased you got a shag. Now do you have any interest or even the balls to go punting or is it time for you to fuck nicely off?

Summarised succinctly sir   

[claretandblue]

If you are married and want to stay that way it has to be punting,I started getting close to a girl at work recently and although it never went the whole way the Mrs radar switched on pretty much straight away meaning an uncomfortable few days at home!

[Eiltedongster]

I am seriously thinking about this. Is Tinder only available on mobile devices and not PCs?

Only as an app on mobiles as far as I'm aware.

[Ben4454]

I calculated punting is far cheaper then having a girlfriend or courting some woman and jumping through her hoops. Which is why I refuse to subscribe to it. More time to do what I want.

I cannot stand spending too much time with a woman. I'd rather spend that money on a weekend away on a huge adventure.

You could say I am Mgtow but refuse to bitch about women on a forum. I just get on with my amazing life.

Fair point,take a girl out for a meal and a few drinks and it all adds up,if you are attached the likelihood is you could need hotel rooms too so would agree paying for it works out cheaper!

[Nagilum]

Depends on how frequently you punt too. If you punt three times a week it may be cheaper to have a civvie girl. Let's just admit, the fun is why we do it

[Nagilum]

About tinder - pile of crap. If you swipe to the right all the time you will find girls, just not the types you would book.

[claretandblue]

Possibly, I couldn't be out three nights in the same week, I would be living in the shed!

If you are single tinder is the way to go

[shrewsmale]

this is sort of similar to the comparison between swinging sites and escorting.

I do both. Find that escorting provides me with the girl, the location, the services I want but obviously has the cost to it.

As for swinging, there is a lot of ground work involved, its not all when you want, or what you want in terms of sexual preference and generally you have to drop standards from punting. There is also the massive risk of being caught. Additionally you have this bizarre scenario where ugly/fat couples and girls get that much attention they suddenly think they are special and get an ego!

With that said got a 31 year old teacher on go at moment, reasonably fit, bit dumpy who is happy for me to turn up at hers around 9 pm, leave by 10 pm. They don't come around often though.

[Nagilum]

You reckon? It's proven unfruitful for me, but then again I'm fussy.

[claretandblue]

A mate of mine has pulled some stunners via tinder and has dates every week, he's a decent looking guy in his mid twenties which clearly helps!

I'm out in Hertfordshire, not much my way. Maybe I should drive around Clapham and start swiping

How easy is it on Tinder to find a gorgeous squirter who'll deep throat you and take a pounding up the arse before you come on her face?

[solentgeezer]

really tempted to give tinder a go sounds like the potential to save a lot of cash if you play your cards right
