When did you get into the hobby?

29 posts in this topic

With all the talk about reference aging. It made me think how long I have actually been in the hobby. For some of you guys, I am probably a late bloomer but I didn't start until I was 40.  So how old were you gals and guys when you paid or were paid for the first time?

Me too!  We should celebrate 🎉 

What a wild and wonderful ride. I can honestly say out of 22 years I’ve never been in trouble with LE and only had to report 2 gents.

Glad to see some others have been playing for a number of years.  I rediscovered this hobby again after a divorce a number of years ago.  I realized I did not want a relationship, but was craving companionship.  It has filled my needs and wants in the best of ways.

I started in the hobby when I turned 50, that 17 years ago.  I used the old TOB and the risky backpage then.  I joined the modern TOB in 2017 cause the ladies on TOB would not see me without a handle(I don't blame then safety first at all times).  I still just see a few providers due to age and medical reasons.

I'm celebrating 10 years hobbying this year, and was 45 when I started.   I too was in the late bloomer group.

After 22 years of marriage and my divorce in 2004 so that must be 15 years ago.   It has been a fun ride so far

Pretty close to 12 years now.  I actually started in the BDSM arena, stumbled my way through craigslist and backpage for a few years before finding my way to TOB.  It's been a great run.

I grew up within an hour of Tijuana and used to party with friends on weekends, at the strip clubs, et al. but never partook in the other offerings until one weekend,(25 years ago) while between girlfriends, I drove the hour, took a cab, went to the club, got one beer, picked up a local, 3g'd and went home... Not exactly a stellar first experience, but, it was an experience. I must say I've had much better times here in the states since then.

Started when I was 48, so it was late for me as well getting started.  Wish I had the courage when I was earlier, but you can't go backwards, only forward.  It has been great, so far, and hoping for many more years of playing.

Well, I didn't actually make a note of when I started, and frankly don't even recall who my "first" was, but I think it was about 10 years ago.  Been making up for lost time ever since, and what a long strange trip it's been.
