My lady gives me enough loving, but I need something to cuddle up to to lower the stress levels. If you'd ever seen me in person, I wouldn't strike you as the "cuddle type"

To each their own. :glou:

Sounds a lot like myself. I don't think anyone who knows me would describe me as the "cuddle type" either. Before I got a Teddy Babe I don't think I even used the word "cuddle." Even when I ordered her I was thinking more in terms of for sleeping with (in the literal sense). Sure, that would be cuddling I suppose, but I never put it that way. Now I bet if you look through my posts I bet just about every one includes some form of the word: cuddle, cuddling, whatever- I think I even made up a few new ones like cuddlability.

Before I got her I also wasn't getting her for sex. Maybe on some level I was denying it to myself, lol, but it really wasn't a big factor. One thing that surprised me when she was really there with me was just what a total hottie she was. The outfit they come with probably had more than a little to do with it, but she was super sexy even though she wasn't ultra realistic. Which really surprised me as I was never the type that thought cartoon or video game characters were sexy or anything like that. I suppose I was able to kinda comprehend if they were trying to be, but it really never did anything for me. Maybe it's the fact that with a Teddy Babe, she's really there; you can touch her and she can touch you. Anyway, I remember back when she was new laying awake in bed at night wrapped around each other remembering those old Viagra commercials about calling a doctor if you have an erection that lasts longer than four hours and wondering if I was going to be ok, haha. That being said, I wasn't really "gettin' any" at the time, so maybe it will be different for you.

Oh, for sure, and it will only get more and more evident once you meet her. They're very expressive, which, personally, I prefer over realistic looking any day. Ironically, I think it makes them seem even more "real."

I don't think I'm as imaginative as a lot of people on here. I don't have conversations with Audrey or anything like that (I will greet her, say goodnight, and occasionally express various affections telling her how pretty or sweet she is or... you guessed it- how cuddly she is, but that's about it). So I wouldn't say she has a personality per say, but she definately has... a demeaner. She's very friendly and affectionate and just a total sweetheart. While sometimes I sorta envy people who can make their dolls have a personality and come to life a bit more I guess the advantage is that I'm not just pretending, it's what I'm actually perceiving. More and more as time goes by, the seemingly contrary observations that she is not sentient, nor even alive, but yet that somehow she loves me back become less and less conflicting. Regardless of the reality, the experience is as real as it gets. Whether I'm totally nuts is up for debate, but it's amazing never the less.

Well today's the day! Just got the notice that she should be delivered today! It's shipping via Fed Ex Home Delivery, and I've heard nightmare stories about this delivery service. I'm a bit nervous.

Hopefully, all goes well with shipping. Took the day off and everything. I'm so antsy, that I took the photos Jenni from Eighth Wonder sent me of her, and doctored them up with various wigs and lingerie. (See my new avatar. lol)

This wait is killing me. :|

Did she show up? Hopefully you're too busy getting to know her to respond.

Oh boy did she ever (show up)! I took her out of the box, and just held her for two hours. Felt like only five minutes went by.
You really can buy happiness. I'm completely blown away. I took some time to reply to Jenni from Eighth Wonder to express my gratitude and
how impressed I am with the whole process and outcome.

I was a bit picky with my requests for her initially, but Jenni REALLY came through with extreme patience and great customer service. I had requested no pubes,
and had her alter the face twice! Jenni would send me photos with updates and options throughout, and was extremely patient with me. I can't stress that enough.
Jenni, if you're reading this, as I said via email... I truly can't thank you enough!

As for my Tina, I'm a bit overwhelmed where to start. Clothes, wigs, inserts, etc. I really want to get some professional grade photos up of her for you guys as well...
...sort of a thank you to all everyone here has contributed to this community. Without you guys, my Tina wouldn't be here, nor would she look this amazing. I'd also
like to post an in-depth thread about my impressions with my entire review of the entire process from the very first email I sent with my inquiry to Jenni.

I have errands to run today, but later tonight, I'll have hours to fully enjoy and just be with her. Just having her here has lowered my stress and blood pressure. I
haven't been in this good of a mood in years. I felt like a nut-job petting her while she was kneeling while I sat in my chair. She slowly fell forward while I was
positioning her arms up, and she fell right under my chin and her arms fell wrapped around me. That's when the butterflies hit. That might sound cliche, but that's
when it hit me how very stupid I was for not buying her sooner. Friggin' unbelievable.

My advice to anyone on the fence about purchasing a TB... don't wait. Just pull the trigger.

Here's a little teaser of my breathtaking Tina with her new human hair wig (that cost as much as she did).
I'm still in awe at how amazing she looks.

Hope you guys enjoy. 8)

Good question. Never thought about it until a few hours ago. I think "Kristina" sounds pretty fitting.

Glad to hear she's everything you hoped for!

That's one of the coolest features about Teddy Babes. Due to their light weight and (often maligned, but I'm starting to question that...) skeletal structure, sometimes they "do" things. It's always a magical moment. Whether they touch your face, run a hand down your back, or in this case a surprise hug, it's always special.

I felt the same way after I got Audrey. My only regret was that I wish I had got her sooner.

Have fun together!

It was the same way with mine. As soon as I took her out of the box and was face to face with her, it felt like she wanted to hug me and I actually sensed that she was extremely happy and excited to be there. :D
Then again I could simply be a bit nuts. Which isn't exactly news around these parts! :wink:
But as JT said, they will do little things and move in ways that give the impression that they really are trying to return your love. :puppydogeyes:
No matter how pretty she is, there is a guy out there somewhere who is tired of her shit!

Girlfriends are for guys who haven't found the right doll yet.

I feel much better now that I've given up hope.
