For me, it all started when I was in Kindergarten. My friend wore diapers to bed, and we'd go to school together in the morning since my parents had to both work. I went over to his house early, often times he was just getting out of bed and I could hear the diaper crinkles as he made his way to the bathroom. I could hear him un-tape his diaper and get dressed. It triggered something in me to want to explore diapers.
When I was 7 or 8 years old, I found my sister's Cabbage Patch dolls still had the cute little diapers on them. I played with those dolls and enjoyed the sounds of the diaper crinkles through the little outfits. I worked up the courage to even take one of the diapers off the doll and put it on myself! It was pure bliss! I loved it! I was aroused by them!
When I was 12-13 years old, I helped my grandparents do work at their house and they used Depends diapers for light incontinence. I would take diapers from their home on occasion to use at home in my bedroom. Again, pure bliss! Loved the crinkles!
At the age of 16, I found myself buying Depends at the store and hiding them in my closet. I would wear diapers once or twice a month at that point. Never wore them around people, just secretly to myself.
After serving a 2-year mission, having gone the entire time without diapers, I found myself, once again, searching for diapers, except now on the internet! I discovered Daily Diapers and DPF and many other diaper sites and found myself not alone anymore. At this time, diapers became a sexual thing because I truly experience my first real orgasm while playing in diapers. I didn't know what orgasms really were until that moment at the age of 21!!! Crazy, right? This continued through my college years and up until I was married at the age of 23. By that time, my diaper fetish was uncontrollable. I had to find diapers and hide them from my new bride, whom I love with all my heart, to this very day.
We've been married now for 17 years. I'm now 40-years-old, and I'm sharing this story. I've been through countless diaper binge/purge cycles over the years and think someday I'll grow out of wanting them. Hasn't happened yet and I truly love the feeling of wearing a soft plastic-backed ABDL diaper. I truly love the crinkles! That's what got me going very early on!
