So, what's it like for you (nothing too extreme please)

Postby trammel » Sat Feb 04, 2012 8:35 pm

So, I just spent about an hour and a half in a TUG. Escaped after 15 minutes...too easy, then was re-tied and reamained so until untied about an hour later. Just a basic chair tied where my wrists were tied in an X behind my back, then my left arm was actually handcuffed to the back of the chair. The tie was pretty tight. It was fun, but one hour for me gets a little long. I would love longer, mind you, couldn't this time, however a lot of people write about much longer tie ups and say little about discomfort or boredom. Any thoughts on this? BTW, a little boredom yes but that doesn't mean it isn't fun! :tied:

Each person is different. Some enjoy being tied, but only for a half hour or less, while others think it's fun to spend all night tied up, or even for several days at a time, with only short periods of release for food and bathroom breaks. Still others like getting tied so they can show off their skills at escaping. Then, there are other options, such as jeans or corduroys; sweat shirt or T-shirt; gagged with a red bandana or a blue bandana; free tie, or tied to an object (tree, post, chair, bed, etc.); tied with rope, rawhide, or something else; simple tie (wrists and ankles), more complex (wrists, ankles, arms, and legs); hogtied, staked out, or spread eagled. And the list goes on.

As you can see, there are all sorts of ways to be tied, and for varying lengths of time. Bottom line, is that it is individual choice, and as long as captor and captive agree, there shouldn't be any problem.

Tough to top what drawscore said.

I myself like to be tied up for short or long periods. Sometimes it can be fun to escape and turn the tables and other times it can be very disappointing if the ropes come loose cause I want to be tied for several hours or all night. Longest time tied was 12 hours

personally i don't like being tied up myself, but i love to tie up others. i like being the one in control and it's always fun to see if anyone can escape my knots.
i kinda think about it as a challenge to make sure my victims stays tied up for as long as i want.

I'm just the opposite. Too bad we live on opposite sides of the world!

Actually, I seldom get the opportunity to tie anyone else up anymore. I have enjoyed doing the tying in the past when given the opportunity.

As one who usually is the one who is tied up, it is likewise fun to be tied by someone who is good at it and then try to figure out how to escape. I enjoy being tied up by someone who, as you describe yourself, kinda thinks about it as a challenge to make sure your victims stay tied up for as long as you want. Sounds good to me! This can be a long process, and often unsuccessful, so when I do this I usually am tied up for at least an hour. I was once tied up almost 3 hours! Long tie ups like that are fun for me but it is just a long time. It can get uncomfortable and a bit monotonous, but that is part of the fun for me. I am wondering about others in long ties who claim to be tied up for hours at a time.

Likewise for me.
The tedium and monotony are a major part of the experience, because rather than dull your senses I find that they sharpen your perceptions and amplify your feelings of helplessness.

I honestly cannot understand the appeal of tying someone up as opposed to being tied up. However, (1) to each his or her own, and (2) if everyone thought the same, there would be no one to tie me up!

Agree 100% with all your points Sarobah. I never could put it in words exactly but that's it, the tedium and monotony do sharpen my senses and the experience. I have a very active mind and tend to think and worry about a lot of things. When I'm tied up I find myself thinking only about being tied and how to escape, if that is even possible and I prefer it if it is very difficult to impossible. I am unable to go do something else which is my natural response most of the time. That seeming tension is what I love!

Being tied up can get pretty boring after a while to me. I'd say after about a half hour I'm usually getting bored, although I have been bound over an hour before. In a way though that could be part of the fun. It gives you a better incentive to find a way to escape. I'm sure plenty would disagree with me but that's part of the fun and challenge for me.

I like roleplay which can introduce a lot of exciting and new TUG scenarios, locations and of course costumes!! (and with my immagination it could be endless lol) and I guess the scenario would fit the length and the type of bondage my captor would want to subject me to (yes I'm a true sub). I think it would be fun to be very helpless (like a maid or school girl or etc...) for a scene but also to a bit looser for another (such as a spy or cop trying to get away) so that I could try to nearly escape and then be recaught again and tied tighter.
