Excellent advice

Had a giant stuffed ladybug nearly all my life. Somehow abandoned it and just recently, after a few years, discovered that I now need a pillow to hug at night. Miss you, giant ladybug

At least take it off the bed tho

Everyone I date has so many more stuffed animals than I do. I get stuffy envy. 🥺

[minorkeys@lemmy.world]

Childish shit only women can get away with.

[thatguynamedzeus@feddit.org]

I'm a guy, I have a shelf of a couple of different stuffed animals. One of every dog breed I've had and one of each for each dog of that breed

I don't sleep with them or play with them, I have actual living pets to do that with

Read 'both my wife and my stuffed teddies' without the 's and got very concerned

[broadfern@lemmy.world]

…no? You can have plushie toys too, and the advice goes for everyone. You deserve someone who loves you for you, with whatever hobby or habit you may feel vulnerable sharing.

[grass@sh.itjust.works]

I've had girlfriends steal my plushies. Now they stay in a locked cabinet (the plushies) until I know who I can trust.

[bradleyuffner@lemmy.world]

Sounds like you've been dating the wrong people.

[jubilationtcornpone@sh.itjust.works]

Thanks for clarifying that it's your plushies that you keep locked up. Otherwise, I would have a lot more questions.

[jubilationtcornpone@sh.itjust.works]

Lol same. It was an emotional roller coaster. I felt sad and then confused until I reread it.

The girlfriends are in the other one

We have a moose that goes on trips with us. I recently made a tiny 3D printed version that we call his "drones". They go on the bike rides, hikes, etc.

[strider@lemmy.world]

Wait - - the ones my wife has? Ah, silly me, I am not dating.

But I'd also not hide my transformers or gaming stuff.

Never too late to build your collection, however big or small.
My SO got one of those chonky seal plushy about 4 years ago, and they almost never goes away without it now. When I see them leave with their big hiking backpack, the seal plushy squished on the side of it with one of the bag's straps and buckles, I just feel love inside.

[grass@sh.itjust.works]

honestly I was scared I was going to be locked up by the last one.

[natebluehooves@pawb.social]

That sounds like serious insecurity.
