Why don’t you have a support network?

Where does one buy one of those, and how much do they cost? Asking for me. πŸ˜‚

[–] match@pawb.social 8 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Mine cost me about $4k from an at-the-time reputable fursuit maker

[–] dojan@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Ah that’s my problem. I’m spending too much on silicone dicks and not enough on the suit.

[–] wolfeh@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Nah, I don't think you spent too much. We all need to take Chances once in a while.

[–] dojan@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago (1 children)

It does cost a lot though, gotta be careful not to Nix your wallet and Crash your economy.

[–] wolfeh@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago (1 children)

And this is why I love Lemmy. :D

[–] dojan@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago (2 children)

Aww, and Lemmy loves you! πŸ’–

Also, just to toot my own horn, I felt pretty proud of that last one. I initially was like "how the heck do you casually drop Fenrir or David in a sentence" but... It's not nearly as elegant as Chance.

[–] match@pawb.social 3 points 6 months ago (1 children)

We are friends now, if you need support just let me know :3

[–] dojan@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Aww, that's so sweet! I suppose this means that the way to make adult friends is to tongue-in-cheek talk about adult toys.

I did actually make a in-person friend doing exactly that once.

[–] match@pawb.social 3 points 6 months ago (2 children)

Depending on your sexual culture and relationship status, tongue-in-cheek can be a great way to make friends

Yeah, I mean it's easier to do online since generally I move in fairly sex-positive circles. With my in-person friend it was because I misheard what she said. I thought she mentioned that she'd ordered dildos and whatnot from a particular book store and I was like "wait, they have dildos??" We'd only met like a couple hours earlier, but we've been good friends ever since. πŸ˜…

I think you buy them by keeping your own promises to people consistently, but I’m not sure since I haven’t done that yet.

[–] dojan@lemmy.world 6 points 6 months ago

I think you likely also have to be decently sociable, and I find socialising with people in real to be both difficult and exhausting.
