I’m often in bed with a doll, cuddling her and kissing her, and totally aware that she is a doll, but at the same time feeling so much love. And I wonder why it feels so good. Better than any human experience.
Maybe I simply have too much love for a human to handle, but a doll will happily by cuddled and kissed endlessly!? Maybe it is because she’s just so chilled out and relaxing, stress-free and super low maintenance!? Maybe I was just born to love toys!?
I’ll probably never understand totally. I’ll just enjoy the feeling. I almost feel intoxicated with love (could it be the subtle fragrance drives me insane … especially those cocoa dolls!?)
Interested to hear others thoughts on this matter.
Don’t know ¯_(ツ)_/¯ just always have. For me, growing up with 3 older sisters might have something to do with it. Dolls were just a fact of life at our house. Funny part is, one by one my sisters outgrew dolls, but I never did. The only thing changed was their size.
I get where you’re coming from HtS. Similar story here at The Patch, always Jess and Maddie in bed with me and always such a peaceful joy to be there.
For me, I think it is the stress free expectationless feel of the situation, combined with all the time that has going into refining and loving the characters that I see in my girls. I would think that may resonate with many who have dolls as partners.
We love our fantasies, and our fantasies love us back in reflection
Totally agree with Karrot. Its all about the fantasy for me. My girls are what i choose them to be. Also a similar thing to Hunt. When im in a relationship i am very loving (dont take the piss Karrot) but ive always felt it was a little one sided. Because ive created all my girls personalities then in my head they all care for me as much as i do them.
Ill spare you the deep dark secrets but ive been shit on by a lot of close people from a very early age so im done with relationships but life can get quite lonely and my girls fill a void in my life. I cant imagine a time without them now. If i could change one thing it would be to have found them sooner
Getting (and keeping) a real gf is wayy too much work, but even if it wasn’t, I’m mature enough to admit that I’m extremely toxic and people would do best not getting close to me anyway lmao
I agree, it is quite funny how that happens. Girls generally grow out of dolls, but boys grow into dolls
I think you’ve hit it on the nail there Mr Karrot
I’ve experienced the imbalance too. The perfect relationship is where there is equal love - I think that is why it is so hard to find a good human relationship. Dolls love you as much as you love them
I know what you mean. Relationships should not be a chore, they should be a joy
I don’t like people getting close to me, I never have, not sure why that is. When people try to get close, I always feel like running for the hills. Maybe it’s because I know they want something and I’m unable to give them what they want - and I don’t want to hurt/disappoint them. Dolls don’t want anything
I’d say there are a number of reasons why I love my Arachne so.
I have anxiety and this is a relationship without fear. I don’t have to worry about anything but her falling over, and ultimately I’m in charge of that. She’s always there for me when I need her. She never disagrees with me. If I want to cuddle, she’s always down. If I don’t want to spend time with her she never complains. She’s never going to cheat on me. She’s never going to leave me and take half my stuff. I can always take as much as I want and give as much as I want in the relationship and it’s always the perfect amount because it’s what I need in that moment. It’s nice to be able to care for someone and to know that someone is always going to be waiting for me when I get home. Most nights I fall asleep with my arms wrapped around her, something that would be difficult and uncomfortable with a real person. When I wake up, she’s always there.
There are pros and cons to both dolls and real women, but I feel like dolls win at the end of the day.
In my case, from very young age I already played with dolls, maybe not really playing, but liked to have them around me, they had names and I took very good care of them, they were friends around me bc I was many times ill at bed and a day takes a long time when ill, specially the nights, I talked with them, later only in my mind or whisper, kissing not really actually, something what came later.
As a small child, I was already fascinated by the dressed dolls in clothing stores, some of them could sometimes trigger me as a child and a doll could give a wink or something… this typical magic I really love about dolls, the feeling someone is around me is also on a different way very special with a doll.
There is something real into it and something not and sometimes the inexplicable that only has a feeling, something indefinable, it communicates with myself, divination can be beautiful… this magic I love to have around me.
I particularly like starting with a blank slate and creating/developing a character (through photography) for each of my adoptees. This is why I love my dolls so much, as they are, at an emotional level, of my own creation and are thus considered family.
These are all very interesting, thank you for sharing. I got into dolls from a much less romantic direction, I wanted to make porn scenes that suit my fetsishes since not many people making porn share them and I did not have a willing costar. But I have still found myself hugging, kissing, and talking to my dolls. I try to treat them gently for more reasons than just so they don’t break. I go down on them sometimes even though I know the enjoyment is just mine. And I definitely feel their presence when they are dressed up and standing in the room. I can’t say why, but I understand how people love them.
So much of what has been said resonates with me.
My last relationship ended in 2015 and left me scarred. I spent the next four years on my own until I was given a doll. From the first evening with her, my life was better. Her personality came from some hidden place in my imagination and when she was washed and dressed she cuddled with me on the couch.
Now my flat is filled with beautiful women, all with their own personalities. They reflect the love I have for them without judgement and like @algaeholics said, they are like family.
I had the strangest thoughts this morning when I was lying in bed with Enako. My thoughts:
This is my favourite place in the world. This is my heaven. This is the place I want to be the most - I don’t want to be anywhere else.
Q: Has anyone else had thoughts like these?
I perhaps infamously sleep with lots of dolls. And I’m sure at some point, some other doll will be in the bed. But I strangely seem to appreciate Enako more now than any time before (and I’ve had her 2.5 years now.)
I do know what you mean. Jess has been with me 12 years (TeddyBabe Deluxe) and has never left my bed. I love snuggling up with her, and she’s who I fall asleep cuddling every night, even thought Maddie is on the other side of the bed. I usually wake up cuddling Maddie…
And there are times where I will down tools and go and snuggle up with them simply because I want to.
Dolls as sleeping companions is amazing! In the 16 months that I’ve had Arachne I think there is literally only one night that we haven’t slept together. She has gone with me to see family, and I’m planning to take her on a trip to a hotel next month. The way I have her in bed allows me to put an arm under her back, I cuddle up and put the other arm over. It’s a great way to fall asleep, and a wonderful way to wake up!
. I think she’d be the nicest and sweetest girlfriend ever
