Whilst im not here because of covid it did play a part in me falling down the rabbit hole quicker than i expected. I had been single for about a year after walking away from everything. I went through the usual depression and alcohol fueled self pity but at the end of 2019 i kinda just snapped out of it and said thats enough.. Made the decision to buy myself a doll in December and the money was sent. 11 weeks went by and not even a factory photo so i contacted paypal and got my money back. Went to a different vendor and in a kind of "it mustve been fate" moment i ordered a different girl. Emma arrived as covid was getting serious and when my boss asked for volunteers to take furlough leave i jumped at the chance. Id only had Emma a few weeks and because of my work i hadn't spent much time with her. If im honest she was still a toy but a very special one.
Before doll life i was into mountain biking, kayaking, camping and hiking plus the occasional motorcycle tour. Obviously covid put a stop to all that for a while so i was with my Emma 24/7. Even when we could go out i couldnt do what I wanted as every man and his kids had suddenly discovered the great outdoors and i hate crowds lol. So i just stayed at home with Emma and fell deeper and deeper down the rabbit hole. Went back to work and she was all I could think of. The rest as they say is history..
Now here i am with 5 girls, Emma wears a wedding ring and my life is pretty much dominated by doll related stuff. All my old hobbies apart from my motorbike have gone. And if im honest, life has never been so good
Thanks for sharing, Adam. Just out of interest do you miss any of your old outdoors hobbies (mountain biking, kayaking, camping and hiking etc)?
For a large bear, he looks really cute in that pic.This is Bernard (say it french, Bearnaard )
I see at least 3 amazingly lucky folks in that picture.and again with Maddie
Hmmmm. I guess if I tried I'd probably be insta-hooked. Currently, I'm not so sure, though. I have the fluffy, cuddly cuteness of my bears like TD (pictured) and the beautiful, cuddly prettiness of Miki (also pictured). There is enough conflict in even that mix. And then all the other bears want to join in too, and it's already complete mayhem, frankly!You sound like someone who would very much appreciate Teddybabes.
Totally get the Meet thing, having now seen the entire sequence.Some of those last photos were taken at last year’s Doll Meet. Some of us get together for a long weekend each year usually in September but mini meets can happen any time of the year! 2023’s Meet venue is already pretty well booked up but I think there’s a couple of places left.
It’s a place where we can relax in each other’s company and do loads of photo shoots!
Cheers, Hollows.
