Reasons for reducing punting.
Thought I’d see if it was just me getting that feeling. Might be good for both sides of the industry to see what punters think.

I think the bad economy has had a big effect. I'm sure a lot of agencies and working girls are really struggling to bring in the bucks. I'm lucky my income hasn't been affected too much, but still I'm a lot more weary of my spending than I was.

But besides that a lot of it is because I think the quality of sex workers has decline a bit. I browse the directory listings and agency rosters and theirs nothing really that stands out or looks particularly appealing. Nothing particularly unique or interesting. And most of them all provide the exact same kind of white bread, by the book, boring service. It's as if they are different robots with the exact same programing routine.

At the moment there's really only a few working girls I actually want to see and am excited to see. And they all happen to be the ones that are either hard to book or work infrequently, or both. If I see any others its really only to scratch that itch until I can get a booking with one of the exciting girls.

I'm actually trying to see how long I could control my lust. Last time I cum was last Thursday while jerking off my 5+ years slut's AI photos and videos who's away atm. So I'm currently almost 1 week sober.

Well said! I'm in the same boat though unlike your lucky self my income has been impacted, sadly.

Is it a case of girls being photographed in very similar ways? Advertisement images looking flat, boring and a little copy paste? Or something else that just doesn’t appeal enough?

If I live there, I would rotate between 3-5 reliable girls and try a new one once a month

It's an interesting one.
If I want to punt, I do find a way, but the amount I am able to spend has been significantly reduced.
I have investment properties, with the interest rates like they are payments are well up. Business turnover is similar but costs have risen sharply so there's little profit.
I have kids at a private school, the fee's are a killer.

Re quality of the girls working, I book different girls to most of you guys (milfs, older girls, non-hotties lol), but I have noticed the absence of girls with personality. I used to have regulars that I would see that were fun, interesting, had a media personality and a personable charm. Maybe it's me and they're still out there, but I don't see it like I used to.
I had a crush on SL for a bit, thinking they attracted interesting girls, but after a string of poor service i have had enough. The 'robots' analogy is a good one.

That is partly the case.
Maybe AI-generated descriptions too?
And the girls are often disinterested, not keen to engage, very scripted, you get the feeling you are just being processed and no investment is being made to make you feel valued, a potential return customer

For me all the agencies have similar photos. It’s almost an identity for them. The bio helps. If you read SL and SC and some of the Asian agencies it’s copy and paste from profile to profile. I’ve found Some of the best profiles have actually been written by the workers themselves.
I also started punting when kissing, Daty , DFK, as examples were included. Extras were items like COF. So it’s shrinkflation happening in a GFE booking. I’m not impressed when they do it to a packet of biscuits. Even less so when it happens in punting.

Gotta agree. Similar position except for the multitude of investment properties. A sw who is not a drop dead stunner but has a personality makes me return. An absolute stunner with the personality below that of a fu.k doll. One and done. And I’ve done too many of those to waste more money. Hence I appreciate punters posting bad reviews.
