Way longer than I anticipated, oops. Hope it's worth the read.

A quick about me before I dive into this story — I'm a 26M who has been jerking off to porn since I was in my early teens. I found out about jerking together with a buddy in high school and my life has been changed for the better ever since. I don't have any notable irl experiences outside of watching Kagney Linn Karter with one of my friends for a few minutes while I was still in high school.

The summer after I graduated high school was when I really started getting into online JObuds. I had no school and was watching porn every night with Omegle in another tab, looking for anybody I could find who seemed straight but curious enough to share porn together. By the time I moved out I had one good friend I had been jerking with on Kik for a few weeks, his name was Alex and we were around the same age.

Finally having a private space where I could lock my door and jerk off without worrying about anyone barging in was a wonderful feeling. Alex and I would legitimately jerk 5 times a week for probably an hour and a half each night and we watched our favorite early 2010's stars like they were going out of style. On nights I would get home from work on the weekend at 11 or midnight, Alex was always on Kik waiting for me so we could jerk off until 2 AM.

It wasn't long before we discovered double penetration together — I had watched it before but didn't really understand the appeal. I was a huge anal lover and tried to watch scenes that included anal at every opportunity. But one night we were particularly hard for a relative newcomer at the time, AJ Applegate. She had a sexy face and a massive, gorgeous ass. Why not watch her take two dicks and see what that's all about?

It was life-changing. Like I was beginning to understand another facet to the JObuds experience — suddenly watching a woman take two dicks made sense. It made so much sense, actually, that it became almost the only thing we watched for the next three years. The conversation of feeling out a new kink with a bud is a unique one. "Would you fuck a different hole on a chick if I was in one?" "Yeah." "Our cocks would be rubbing a little bit outside her holes, do you think that'd feel pretty good?" That back and forth of trying to figure out what your buddy liked so you could figure out if you liked it too was always fun.

Alex and I jerked off from mid-2013 to about early 2016 at more or less the same pace at which we started: 4-5 times a week for at least an hour a night or so. I was 21 when we stopped jerking off as he eventually just stopped logging into Kik.

Isaac was a buddy I had found shortly after Alex and I began stroking together, probably during January/February of 2014. I found him on Omegle as well, after I had gone to college, and after Alex and I had jerked off together enough to make me realize that I really, really enjoyed DP. Even though Alex and I had our last session in 2016, Isaac was probably my main stroking buddy from about Fall 2014 onwards.

Isaac was also around my age and shared many of the same interests I had: a huge love of porn, keeping up with all your favorite porn stars and their new scenes, and a very recent, very strong penchant for watching women get double penetrated. Still in school when we first started talking, I obviously had tons of time to chat with him. Soon, Isaac and I were on the same schedule Alex and I were on: five nights a week, spending hours a night watching gangbangs and jerking off even though we had classes at 9 AM.

Jerking with Isaac was a little more focused on how I wanted to bond with a buddy while we stroked our cocks. Our interests were pretty well aligned — we loved hot women, tastefully fake tits, pretty round asses, and messy blowjobs. With our tastes a little more developed than they had been, our focus turned to enhancing our stroking sessions together. Still on Kik over text, we slowly began sharing dick pics and stroking videos back and forth, complimenting each other's hard, throbbing cocks in the middle of our jerking sessions. We talked insanely in depth on the scenarios we wanted to find ourselves in with our favorite women, which hole we would prefer more, which star had the nicer ass and why — our conversations while we edged shot up in volume, all while we continued to share porn and clips of our own cocks.

Eventually, I just had to ask. An hour and a half into a weekend night marathon session I finally asked, "would you be down to jerk each other off?" The answer I got was more positive than I could have hoped for, and our new shared interest quickly became a topic of discussion. "Imagine jerking each other off while we watch Megan Rain get filled up with dicks. Holy shit."

Isaac and I spent several years jerking together as well, from early 2014 to late 2017. Many of the habits I built with Isaac, I encouraged Alex to join in on while I was still stroking with him. While mine and Alex's friendship was more focused on realizing that other men liked porn as much as me and wanted to talk about it, mine and Isaac's friendship was more focused on building those "bro-bonding" moments and figuring out how to get the most out of jerking off with a good friend.

I didn't have a reliable buddy for several months until I found someone on Reddit for the first time in spring 2018. I was out of college and had a girlfriend, but still needed a good bud to share all those evenings I spent edging to porn when my girlfriend wasn't staying the night. I had also just gotten into stroking to instagram models and needed somebody to share my interest with.

In spring of 2018 I found my bud we'll call "JH", the first bud I had spoken to who had several years on me but we still really seemed to get along. I think when we first started jerking I was 23 and he was 29 or 30. JH was a lot like me — developed taste in porn, loved jerking off and couldn't watch enough DP. We hit it off pretty well and within a few weeks we both realized the other had an emerging non-nude/instagram influencer kink. We shared our favorite influencer babes over Discord and watched porn together whenever we could, usually about 2-3 times a week because we both had work and I had a girlfriend.

In the winter of 2018, JH asked me something no bud had asked before: did I want to get on mic while we watched the same video? I was super hesitant but the level that JH and I connected on was pretty stellar and we had only been jerking together a few months.

I'm super glad I agreed to it. Our conversations flowed exactly the way they did over text except I wasn't wasting time typing on the keyboard with one hand — I was moaning and chatting on mic with my good buddy while we watched Lana Rhoades get double-teamed. Soon our 2-3 weekly sessions all converted to voice chat for a few months and I swear I think we watched every gangbang that was on the internet during that several month time span, sharing dick vids and talking about how bad we wanted to jerk each other off.

I wish I had an exciting story for how the next part came about, but I honestly don't — I just remember one day we were talking about frotting and rubbing our cocks together in addition to all our other amazingly well-aligned interests. It was commonplace for us to jump on mic, pull up a video, share some dick pics and then spend the rest of the time talking about all the pretty holes we were watching get stuffed while also talking about how badly we wanted our cocks to be leaking on one another. And if we weren't having a HardX marathon, we were spending three consecutive hours getting ridiculously edged to our favorite influencers and instagram women. It was a wonderful time, definitely some of the best I've ever had jerking off with a friend.

I had to leave for six weeks for personal reasons in early 2019 and came back to find out JH had a girlfriend who had moved in with him. We jerked together about once a week after that and then my girlfriend moved in with me in spring 2020. We average about 1 session every 2-4 weeks these days and honestly it's not enough. We get to voice chat maybe a few times a year and I definitely wish we could do it more. I haven't heard from JH in about 60 days and honestly I feel like I'm having withdrawals from our regular chats haha. Not having my regular bud for the last two months has got me recollecting on all the fun times I've had for the last few years stroking my dick with other guys.

I miss jerking off with my friends tremendously, and on top of just having less time these days, it seems like no one online wants to cultivate JObud friendships to maximize the "bro bonding" aspect of jerking off together. Not gonna lie, I miss when finding a good online bud was a little more elusive because at least everyone put a little more effort into stroking together. JObuds is literally only about the bonding and conversation for me. I can find all my own porn and sexy women to beat my dick to, I just want some awesome friends to share it all with — that's what makes the experience so fun.
