Do you lose interest after 6 months?
I’m wondering if the silence is a function of…
1) Real life? No time for the forum? Life just gets in the way.
2) A need for privacy? You no longer want to share about your experience?
3) A loss in interest in the doll? After such a significant financial investment, the doll no longer holds your interest? Perhaps you feel buyer’s remorse?
4) Something else?
Would anyone like to share their thoughts? Particularly as it relates to #3.

Re: Do you lose interest after 6 months?
Many dolls that are newly displayed have relatively little comment, with some exceptions. S
o I think it works both ways. Where there is a lot of reaction to a post, the poster would continue to post - I think.
And where there is little comment, the post dies.
Which of course does not mean that the owner has lost interest in the doll. Perhaps to share this on TDF.
I have posted little in comparison to many other members.
Which is partly due to many viewers and little response.
Fortunately, the interest at home for the doll has remained, and they are indeed expensive investments.
I got rid of 2 previously purchased dolls, not out of interest, but for upgrading reasons. So from TPE to silicone.
Dressing up my dolls, cuddling them, being a bed partner are all things that I still enjoy.
Although that has its moments. I like the presence of a beautifully shaped lady lookalike in the house.
Especially if they are dressed in a style that I find beautiful or sexy. I usually take care of that. As long as I have the physical strength to maintain and lift the ladies, I think they will stay.
I had my 1st doll more than 5 years ago, and I just ordered my 5th doll.
But surely the novelty of the doll phenomenon has diminished.
And life certainly goes on. This has also reduced my need to share a lot.
Fortunately, I have never regretted any doll I purchased. T
hey all had a positive contribution in various ways.
What is clear is that after 5 years the doll ladies are still in my life.

Re: Do you lose interest after 6 months?
When I’m looking for my next doll, the cycle repeats itself.
But it’s just more a matter of so many minutes in the day. I can spend them on here or I can spend them with my doll. My doll wins.

Re: Do you lose interest after 6 months?
As for my loosing interest, that hasn't happened yet. Dolls represent a lifelong fascination for me. I interact with them in one way or another daily. I'm not always taking pics though, nor posting about them. It all depends on my mood and what else I have going on. Life does get in the way sometimes....

If the response isnt there to their efforts to join in or ask questions then many either just leave or become observers.

If you are afraid to be cheated, stick to the forum vendors here and start a new thread asking about advice on the models you are interested in. You will be surprised how much support you will get from the forum members. It will be easier than you think.Substantial_Coat6960 wrote: ↑Mon Oct 30, 2023 2:19 am Hi, I am a new user, I learned about this thing on YouTube 1 month ago, but I have not purchased it yet, because the price is very high I am worried that my money will be cheated, I will always pay attention to the experience you share.

Re: Do you lose interest after 6 months?
I second this! Especially as a male doll enthusiast, there are not many folks interested in what I post. Not that there's nobody interested at all, but I keep my post frequency to a minimum both here and on Reddit, posting only my absolute favorite content, because I know there won't be much interaction with my posts. I have found that each individual post of mine on any social media platform typically gets more attention if it's been a while since my last update.Dollbabsown wrote: ↑Sun Oct 29, 2023 10:12 pm I can't speak for others, but it could also be a lack of response. Or that the effort made does not meet the expectations.

Re: Do you lose interest after 6 months?
I haven’t really bought any new outfits or anything new to share so I don’t post as much as before and I’m quite happy with her attire so I haven’t really felt the desire to. Just happy and content. I adore my doll but I’m sure nobody wants weekly updates from me on thatFormerlyHot wrote: ↑Sun Oct 29, 2023 9:40 pm In the last year I have seen at least a half dozen posters enthusiastically report on the receipt of their doll, share pictures, describe how much they adore their dolls, and then go silent, not to be heard from again.
I’m wondering if the silence is a function of…
1) Real life? No time for the forum? Life just gets in the way.
2) A need for privacy? You no longer want to share about your experience?
3) A loss in interest in the doll? After such a significant financial investment, the doll no longer holds your interest? Perhaps you feel buyer’s remorse?

If anything my interest has only grown.
I’d imagine it’s similar for many people.

Re: Do you lose interest after 6 months?
A very good point. If I really wanted to know about a member and what they thought of their XYZ doll I guess direct messaging them would be the best approach.Fetish in the shed wrote: ↑Mon Oct 30, 2023 6:45 am Personally i think it happens on forums of many types. There are usually a core group that are always online and interacting with each other and newbies who find they are out in the cold.
