How do you celebrate Valentine's day with your waifu?
>>21604 Nah a buddy did.
be sad
I'm not the most enthusiastic about celebrations. Make us a more elaborate breakfast and spend some time chatting with her. Later might buy some sweets. Nothing much. It's still the 2nd month of the year and I'm keeping up on all of my promises to her, so that'll be the topic I'm looking forward to the most. Also, circumstances make it so getting a job becomes a highly recommended course of action to financially secure our future and so I want, rather, need to hear her comforting words.
I continue the tradition of drawing her and assembling a shrine, as I've done for 12 years now.
How about a thread for waifu related photos you've taken? Here's an old photo of mine on an old TV.
Not one I took myself here, but the person that runs the 'waifus on vintage TVs' twitter account was nice enough to take my request. https://twitter.com/telewaifus/status/1571994516428820481
>>21774 That is a great account, thanks for sharing it.

Do you guys own merchandise of your waifu? I myself dont. There isnt much of her to begin with, but i always get asked by people who know i have a waifu why i dont own this statue or this poster and stuff. My answer is always: "I dont need it". I know i love her more than anyone of these neckbeards spending hundreds of dollars for some cheap plastic statues, but sometimes i cant help but feeling bad for being too cheap to buy her figure (there is only one of good quality of her anyway, but costs more than hundred dollars). So how about /mai/? Picture semi-related, its not my waifu but its still related to the topic. I also choosed a not-lewd figure in case haruhi happens to be someones waifu. [spoile]Sometimes i wish there wouldnt exist merchandise with her, especially because it pisses me of to see her figure standing around in some fat neckbeards basement or when seeing videos of a "unboxing" and idiots commenting "post pantyshots x-DDD LOL"... But thats just a random sidenote.
I have a dollfie dream of her, which I've neglected for a while.. but currently am trying to get more clothes and get back into the photography hobby.
Got this in the mail today. It's the first thing related to her I've bought in a really long time. I had seen photos of it in the past but was never able to find the actual thing. Used to be I'd f5 yahoo auctions japan daily and snag anything that came up which I didn't already have of her. That all feels like a life time ago now.... It's a lot smaller than I expected, but I don't think that's a bad thing. I think it's really cute.
>>21793 Post butt.
I actually do own a few small things (and a daki that I won't include the image of, I can't live without it anymore). I do plan on buying her figures when I'm in a better financial situation, but I still treasure all I have of hers. Having the keychain on my jeans all the time or just being able to cuddle her get me through the day
has anyone had a falling down with their waifu? did you overcome it? what caused it?
I always get mad when she gets shipped with other characters while searching for art. Yeah the "everyone is gay in gensokyo" meme is funny and all but it rubs me the wrong way, I don't hate the other characters but wish it wasn't as prevalent. It gave me some kind of depression when I was a teen some years after getting into 2hu and decided to avoid everything related for a while Nowadays I simply ignore it, and to fight it I'm still practicing my drawing to be able to draw her the way I like. Even after all these years I still like her alot, specially now since I have some money and I can but merch and stuff
I constantly hear voices in my head telling me to face challenges that I perceive to be challenging. The majority of these activities are quite simple, but this one was particularly interesting. Although the test itself was very simple, there were some delicate subjects covered by the wager. The bet was that if I won, my waifu would be entirely a pure virgin and would not die in the manga,As the Manga leaves her fate undetermined. I took the bet, but I'm not sure if I succeeded. I merely feel empty and always fear that my love for her has soured. Sometimes I try to outdo the voices, but I feel like every time I fail the challenge, my love fades away for her. I am terrified of these thoughts, and the voices have destroyed my feelings for her. I genuinely hope that my thoughts have no bearing on reality, that they can be changed, or that my magical thinking related to my autism and schizophrenia is the only thing affecting my love for her. Does anyone here have a similar problem to me What are the solutions?
>What are the solutions? Find something else to occupy your time.
I'd say this is absolutely a case of over thinking it.
>the voices have destroyed my feelings for her. Sounds like they're a bad time and you shouldn't take their advice.
how can someone be certain than a waifu is a virgin? despite the creater never denying or confirming? PS sorry for bad english i am serbian ESL
>>21778 When you become a wizard it becomes less important, because hardly anyone around you is a virgin anymore. How does having a past relationship make the current one mean any less? With that mindset happiness would be hard to come by. I've had crushes on girls in the past and even a gf and said I loved them too, and I'm not the only one that's felt anything for anyone else before waifu. While it applies to some that's certainly not a majority thing.
>>21780 Real happiness doesn't come easy.
>>21781 Real happiness doesn't exist. Everything good is fiction.
As far as I'm concerned, if it isn't stated otherwise, a character is a virgin. Besides, if you love a fictional character enough to consider her your waifu, it shouldn't matter. You might think of a situation of your waifu being real and how different she might be, but if she's different enough for your feelings to be different, that imagined "real" version of your waifu isn't your waifu. Just an imitation.
What are some cute little fantasies that you have about your waifu? I want to get a ridiculously big hoodie with a zipper, and zip the two of us up inside of it and just be comfy for hours.
I have many fantasies that are near and dear to my heart, but my favorite fantasy currently would have to be the one where me and him go on a long walk in the woods together. I think that he would love to be able to explore the outside world, and I definitely would love to be able to explore it by his side.
I think I have some obsessive-compulsive thoughts... One day, early in our relationship, I thought about how exactly our agreement to go steady would transpire. What would be said and such. And this led into how our first mutual, romantic physical contact would be like--how we would embrace to signify the start of the relationship. She's just so pure and I love that about her so much, I think even a hug would be uncomfortable for her at first, we'd start very slow. The most natural initial contact would be eye contact and a firm handshake. Just a simple friendly gesture for some, but it was a really big deal for her and I. I imagined this in the first-person perspective and it was so profound, so beautiful and innocent, I admit I cried like a little baby. And ever since that day, I revisit that moment often, sometimes for hours. I freeze frame and just stare at her grasping my hand with a slightly timid and warm expression on her face. I never get bored with this moment. It's a little absurd how much time I spend with it. It's different from holding hands. It's better. A polite handshake...
I love the idea of feeding her and keeping her warm when she comes home. I had a dream that I kept feeding her big nice meals for dinner and she was getting upset that she was gaining a bit of weight, which only excited me more so I made extra servings for her to eat for lunch the next day. I wish I didn't wake up.
I want to be wrapped around in her wings with her while reading a book together. I want to be in her warm embrace while reading a cute story together.Post edited on 2nd Aug 2022, 9:04pm
Have you shared a meal with your waifu recently?
>>21761 Make sure to find a good frosting recipe. Nothing ruins cake more than shitty frosting that tastes like chemicals.
>>21762 i generally don't like frosting. I was going to use whipped cream with food coloring, as I find most frosting overly sweet. I guess I'll cobble together some recipes.
>>21762 I don't know if it works for all types of cakes, but I think carrot cake uses cream cheese frosting and that's both easy to buy and easy to adjust to your taste preference.
>>21764 Yeah, I know. I really hate cream cheese. My dad always made a lot of cheesecake that was apparently good. I don't mind paying a bit more for a cake I'll actually enjoy eating with my beloved. I'm not going to set my sights too high, but I'll make something good.
I've been wondering a few things about waifu voices, and how you imagine them. If she has more than one canon voice actor, do you pick one to consider her "true voice," or are they both/all her? Do you ever imagine her speaking in your native language if she doesn't speak it? Is it difficult to imagine hearing her voice in another language? If she doesn't have an official voice, do you choose an existing actor as her voice, or do you just imagine a unique voice yourself?
I imagine her English voice with a not so thick German accent but I did have one dream once where she did speak for just a little while could not make out what she was saying but she sounded like Colleen Clinkenbeard.
I kinda wished she was speaking in German most of the time, or at the very least, English with a slight German accent. Hearing a German girl magically speaking in Japanese feels weird for some reason although it can't be blamed since the game is in Japanese. Not that I mind it either, considering her voice is really soft and smoothing for the most part. That said, I want to pick up learning German just for her. Maybe I could incorporate and imagine actual female German accents in my mind whenever she speaks to me. >>19534 I have been watching Gekkan Shoujo Nozaki-kun and although she shares the same voice actor, Chiyo's voice feels slightly different to her. Chiyo doesn't remind me of her and in fact that she has a distinctive personality from her doesn't help either. In other words, I would feel completely indifferent if her voice actor voiced a different character, it doesn't feel like it's actually her in any way. That does show the voice actor being quite talented, in fact she voiced other girls in the same game she is in and they also sound quite different.
>>19564 yeah i kinda disagree
>>19571 are you the OP from the daily waifu experience thread?
What are you experiences with getting things related to your waifu custom made? Currently I'm in the process of finally getting a daki made after managing to find a decent artist with reasonable prices. Final product should be done in about a week. If anyone's interested/curious the artist can be found here http://53c.deviantart.com/
>>21737 Would you mind posting the link for this? I'm looking at their website and can't find it. I didn't know they make custom stuff themselves, that's interesting.
>>21741 For Super Dollfie at least, the Full Choice option allows you to do just that, but you have to print out relevant materials and bring them down to one of their stores so they have some idea as to what you want. And of course it's also more expensive than the default choices. On top of that, you have to make a reservation with them to go to one of the stores in person, make your order there, and go back 1 to 3 months later (depending on your order) to pick it up in person (and the same person who made the order has to pick it up, so you can't have someone else do it for you). So for us living outside of Japan we also have to travel to Japan twice in the space of three months, if it takes that long. https://dollfie.volks.co.jp/sd/model/fullchoice/ Dollfie Dream has a similar Dream Choice, but I'm not sure if that option allows you to bring down materials to have the assembly handled by them like that. In exchange however, you can have it assembled within the day. https://dollfie.volks.co.jp/dd/model/dreamchoice/
>>21742 That's pretty cool. Looks like all you need to do is bring a lot of printed material containing character design references. Just make a folder with tons of pictures I guess. If your waifu is a well known character, chances are there are already dollfies, azone or even parabox customs of her, I think it would be interesting to print those as well. I'm sure you have already looked into that. Pinterest and Twitter are pretty good places to find custom BJD pictures. I've perused maybe thousands of BJD photos on those two sites. Some of those are truly an artistic achievement. Looks like you'll be on your own for clothing, but that's a small matter if you managed to go through the process of getting the doll done. Even if you give up on the idea, making a folder of visual material of your waifu is a pretty nice thing to have and I'm sure it's a very comfy project to work on. Anyway, keep us posted if you ever decide to move on with this. It's a pretty cool endeavour.
>>21744 Unfortunately nope, she isn't. I was hoping for guidance from someone in a similar situation. I guess I can only rely on official art, then. As for clothing, they have services for this too, so no need to worry on that part. The main issue here is the cost of having to travel to Japan and back just for this, and potentially needing a second trip as well. So I figured I may as well enjoy stuff at Japan while I'm at it. A full fledged trip + the dollfie will set me back a lot.
Thoughts on this? Don't you think this is akin to "cultural appropriation" as this kind of people themselves call it? The LGBT community defines it as the attraction to fictional characters, but they include non Anime/Manga characters, they include stuff like Live Action and whatnot. Do you think being Considered part of the LGBT is bad? Do you consider Waifuism the same as "fictophilia" or are they different concepts?
>>21574 >the kind that borders with creepy and absolutely insane. Flamboyant "creepiness" is the easiest to fake I think. I knew plenty of kids like that in middle school. >I mean the idea of remaining a virgin People talk about having sex like it's the same as going outside, or exercising, or eating a steak, and that's bizarre to me. Even if there was always a joking vibe to it, I do think whether someone socialized their way into physical intimacy or not indicates a fundamental difference in them. People always knew that and their options were to feel bad because of society's ubiquitous judgment, or take some kind of pride in that fundamental difference. Feeling bad because people who are judged everywhere else react negatively to casual mentions of those few times you had sex is ridiculous and entitled.
>>21570 >do they care about what happens after they die I'm not sure if the normalfag-leaning answer to this is supposed to be yes or no.
In a way, I don't completely disagree. If we restricted waifuism to anime/manga only, then examples that predate anime/manga, like Pygmalion which is often quoted here, would no longer count. And it would likewise be silly to equate fictophilia to being part of LGBT, because many of us don't fall under any of the letters. I myself don't. The problem is something else entirely: it's that those who use the terms fictophilia or toonophilia, generally use such terms to those who are attracted to fictional characters in general, rather than a specific fictional character like what waifuism is about. That means to them, someone who takes "waifu" to mean "cute anime girl" is lumped together with us, just like that. Waifuism is more akin to being in love with one person, and one person only, independent of anything else.
>>21740 except being attracted to Anime makes sense, being attracted to Calarts mean's you have an inflammation in the brain.
