Introductions discussion

Greetings everyone! I’m a male in my mid-twenties from South Carolina, and I’m still somewhat new to chastity. I came across this site earlier today and decided to take a look. My interest in chastity sparked back during my late teens, and the concept immediately captivated me. However, as a cash-strapped college student then, I couldn’t justify buying a high-quality cage, nor did I want to risk a cheap imitation after reading so many tales of them snapping apart or breaking. So I let that idea sit for a while. Two years back, I finally secured my first device - a CB6K. The excitement was immense, and I tried it on almost immediately, eager to lock myself up and experience the thrills of orgasm denial… And yet, I hated it… No matter what adjustments I made, I couldn’t get the CB6K to fit comfortably for any length of time. I experimented with various rings and spacers sizes. I wore it only during daytime hours to acclimate. I even tried sleeping in it. It never quite settled, and I could barely manage a full twenty-four hour stretch before it became unbearable. After that experience, I decided chastity wasn’t for me, packed the CB6K away in my closet, and continued pursuing my other fetish (panties). Yet, the allure of being locked up stayed with me, leading to several more unsuccessful attempts with the CB6K over the next eighteen months. Eventually, last summer, I decided to give it another shot and purchased a stainless steel cage online. The improvement was night and day - much more comfortable, allowing for longer wear without pulling or discomfort. It wasn’t very discreet though, creating quite a noticeable bulge, which meant I could mostly only wear it on weekends. Soon after, I upgraded to the Holy Trainer v2, finding it even cozier and easier to manage, and extremely discrete, enabling me to wear it during weekdays as well without trouble. My longest continuous lock has been four days so far. I find that if I remove the cage for cleaning, I struggle to convince myself to put it back on afterward, despite enjoying the locked sensation. That is something I’m still working through, and I am steadily progressing toward longer sessions. Cheers! Twenty Sides
