Re: Does the novelty wear off?
Love dolls...no, novelty has not worn off at all! If anything, it becomes almost an addiction of sorts, or collecting hobby perhaps, wanting so many more makes and models! Every year or two there seems to be a 'jump' in love dolls, I guess similar to computers/tech but at a slower pace lol. It's always neat to see new models and new manufactures enter the market and the constant evolution. To me my initial purchase was intent 99% for sex. While that is a awesome benefit, the TRUE benefit for me was a health benefit...I simply sleep MUCH better with a doll spooned. So my hours 'usage' on my dolls has been more sleep aid, with the neat option to boink when I need to. So to me, it's become one of those health/life improvements that I cant' imagine living without now simply due to the fact I sleep better now...amazing!
Hell, one will be able to look back at the dolls out now, and imagine even 10 more years from now how they will evolve!
I can easily see how people collect MANY of them if they can afford it...very expensive hobby though. Sky is the limit really. But all the fun things in life are that way.

Re: Does the novelty wear off?
I do indeed plan to use her from time to time as a legitimate mannequin and model clothing and jewelry at summer festivals, but during her days off hehehehehe, I enjoy having her beautify my office. This whole thing is all new to me so I was just wondering if the novelty ever wears off with the rest of you that have dolls of one form or another.
Thanks for the replies.
Re: Does the novelty wear off?
Her company is something profound that I can't quite comprehend. Mystical maybe...
Like was mentioned above; I sleep better. In fact sometimes I hug her before I leave the house, and feel an incredible sense of calm.
Her company has really helped me to curb my incessant pursuit for a girlfriend. Not that there is anything wrong with me wanting a girlfriend,
but the obsession was annoying and the loneliness pressured me to make really poor choices in who I got close to.
We recently did the "mod" and it is quite nice. I often think back and laugh about the day I got her home and couldn't wait to be sexual together.
I ended up with a awful, almost plastic, masturbator, but we made due. lol
She's a good friend, and we share a really enjoyable hobby of fashion. She loves to be dressed and I think even gives me advice on what will look good on her. Profound!
Re: Does the novelty wear off?
I had always had a fetish for dolls and when the chance came to buy one (Superbabe circa 2002) I jumped at it. I bought it clothes, stockings, shoes, wigs, etc. and could not wait for the chance for intimacy with my fantasy lover.
As someone mentioned, the first time was the best. After that, less and less, until finally she was hanging from her stand in the guest room for weeks at a time without me using her. I realized that although comforting, a doll could not replace my desire for intimacy. So I sold her on Ebay.
A few years later (2004) I realized how cheap mannequins were on Ebay (~$100) and I splurged and bought one. Again clothes, wigs, stockings, etc. Lovely to look at, fun to play with, but again somewhat empty. After a week of her standing around I realized it was time to move on. So I packed her up and sold her and her stuff on Ebay.
Fantasy although fun is no substitute for reality. Everyone is different of course and based on the progress and advances in the dollworld I still lurk and once in awhile wonder what it would be like to purchase a Sinthetic or Anatomical Doll. They even have posable mannequins on Ebay now as well.
Eventually I met someone, fell in love and got married. She doesn't know about my past life experiences.
Would a weekend escape with a doll or mannequin be fun? Perhaps, but coming home to my wife and children is priceless.

I found it interesting reading this comment... I know that I would find it the same as you if I bought a doll, for the purpose of replacing things like intimacy, replacing a girl basically. However I have thought about his a few times and I realized that, really that's no reason not to buy a doll or to even buy a mannequin. For me the purpose of looking into this at this time is for sexual fantasy reasons. I would consider myself sexually kinky.. lol What I mean is for purposes of a purely erotic nature I enjoy and find the idea of using sex toys such as dolls or at the moment I'm looking into mannequin heads and the soloflesh sex toy as a means of producing erotic scenes which I will film on HD camera. It's kink basically.. just fun and erotic. I don't feel any shame for these things... ie (past life things that I shouldn't have done) I think it's good and even healthy to be free with sexual ideas and sexual fantasy however dynamic or fetish like they may be. I guess what I'm saying is be free have fun.. and feel no shame. Merry Christmas.Graphix wrote:In my case, the novelty wore off for both my lovedoll and a mannequin.

That's quite a nice torso. One thing that is not of interest to me is the weight of a real silicone doll, this would be perfect.Bennko64 wrote:I don't think I would use a full mannequin for sexual purposes without a lot of modification. I am new to this really tho' but as far as I can see many mannequin heads are very very beautiful, some as beautiful as the realdoll faces. So the heads good, just need a silicon body, and then make adjustable arms and legs. I really think a lot of money can be saved and a doll produced to a very high standard. I know my brother could do it.. he makes violins, and boats from scratch. I doubt he would agree to make one tho' This is the kind of thing I was thinking to reduce price on a good quality doll. Use the cheaper but still very beautiful mannequin heads. Buy the silicon torso like this one. http://www.gummipuppen.de/silikonpuppen ... torso.html Then buy adjustable mannequin arms and legs until silicon versions become available.

I believe it would be up to the individual, and what you think of as being novel. You won't know until you try.LooseCannon wrote:For those of you that have mannequins, How long have you had them? Do you find that the novelty ever wears off or does your appreciation grow stronger with time? The same question pertains to those that have love dolls as well.
