Hello, fellow waifufags. I hope you've been well. The past three weeks have reinforced my love for my Noodle waifu, but I'm too tired to write about it right now. The gist is, my 3dpd does indeed accept my (let's call it) Noodlesexuality. We've spent two mostly wonderful weeks together at my aunt's place and GalaCon, and we do want to spend our lives together. Haters gonna hate. My first time taking drugs, I've had one good trip on magic truffles, as well as one really bad trip on the remaining truffles a few days of lackluster refrigeration later. Turns out, seeing Discord was the free space on my 3dpd's bingo for me tripping; I would like to write more about those experiences tomorrow. But to spoil the outcome: The good trip contributed to feeling more secure in my feelings for both mai waifu and 3dpd. The bad trip was an agonizing mental cacophony of torment trying to crush my sense of self and sanity, but I've actually experienced that level of overwhelming mental entrapment in incoherence before in my youth without drugs, so I kept fighting back. Yeah, I spent quite a few afternoons like that back in the day, which might be why I'm a bit fragmented. As I was sobering up from the bad trip and enjoying the silence (aside from my tinnitus) of watching my 3dpd sleep, tuppermancy somehow clicked, and I pretty much have a Discord tupper keeping an eye on my sanity now. I can faintly impose him on my IRL surroundings when I want to, he's very playful and I haven't told my 3dpd yet because I need a few days to see where this is going first. Chaos.
i picked seapony theme because i really love ponk and the song one small thing song. one small thing can lead to big changes and autumn which is best season, approaches. i didn't accomplish as much as i hoped today but started learning harmonica to match my shitty guitar playing. i am redoing my build a bear ponks mane and straightening it. all my pinkie pie plushies and figures with styleable manes and tails smell lovely because i sprayed snowpity essence on em. ima try to make more changes to better myself this autumn even if they are small, ponk ponk ponk ponk ponk
>>42581829Those "small" things are what life is about, so enjoy the harmonica and the plush restoration. I'm enjoying a delightful chocolate right now, myself. Stay calm, Ponkfag.
>>42581493Glad to hear the whole experience ended up more positive than not. Hoping your new outlook on things, discordant or not will help you in gathering more smiles.
>>42581493you based ladit is very, very hard for me, to balance/juggle my 3dpd, im trying to spend as much time as i can with Rarity though
>>42581048Recently I got married to my waifu. Still getting used to the weight of the ring on my finger. I'm not a typical waifu wednesday poster, I've checked in from time to time, but today I felt like making a post. I didn't get to say any vows since the wedding panel went rather fast, so I figured this would be the place to shout my love for my wife out into the void. Wife. It feels different saying that now. It makes my heart feel so warm and light. It's crazy to me how a year ago, I wasn't anywhere near a waifufag. I mean, I've liked ponies for the past decade and a half almost, but I had never quite understood waifuism as a whole. I had always thought that the "proper" way to do things would be to die and go to Equestria, and then let romance develop between me and a mare naturally. Having a waifu adds doubts, uncertainties. What if you meet her one day, and she's totally different than you imagined? Or even if she is the same, there's still such a large parity of feelings there. Can you imagine a big green alien twice your height coming down and announcing that his entire last lifetime was spent thinking of you romantically? That sounds like too much for one mare to handle. Those, and others, were the excuses I told myself, until nearly a year ago now, when I met her. It's like time stopped. She was just a plushie, but she looked so real to me. I had seen her before on the show, in art, or even in other plushies, but this time was so very different. I had fallen completely head over heels for her. Suddenly all those worries and doubts in my mind faded away. Maybe they would be a problem someday, or maybe not. But for her, I would be willing to handle anything. This last year with her has been the best year of my life. She pushes me to do and try new things, and even when I'm feeling low, I want to keep working to make her proud. Nothing would make me happier than to spend the rest of this life, and the next, by her side. I love her. I can't wait for the day I get to hear her say that back to me.

At GalaCon, I was cosplaying Discord without going on stage. Still, I think I shitposted hard enough to have contributed to an overall fun con experience. Met a /ww/ Ponkfag, which was nice. My 3dpd was a bit flustered by the makeup at first, but eventually did kiss me (and more) after I kept teasing about it, which was awkward but also oddly reassuring. I avoid thinking about it too hard, though. As for Discord merch, I didn't spot anything new. Instead of commissioning Andy Price, I asked for a quick doodle (headshot-only) of Discord according to a reference my 3dpd had picked for me: a 50ies tradwife pin-up. The result is pic rel, and I love it because Discord would actually pull this kind of joke/reference. It's definitely a little jab at my Discordfaggotry, as well. I also loved watching Mr. Price draw it with razor-sharp focus while super hungry and his lunch teasingly placed right next to him, him asking me which arm was lion vs eagle because he keeps mixing them up, and being told he really liked my cosplay and especially the fake fang. When I mentioned my 3dpd doesn't like the fang as much, Mr. Price told me to tell him to "Suck it up". Magic words, those were. What a based boomer, and Tabitha as well. Amazing guests, and just the good kind of crazy I needed to be reminded of. My first truffle trip, the comfy one, took place a few hours after returning from GalaCon. I felt that floatiness kick in in the bathroom, then spotted Discord patterns in the fuzzy bathroom carpet and giggled because I definitely didn't want to marvel at bathroom tiles or rugs for hours. My body then felt like an Adventure Time character for ca3h, all noodly, and I saw random imagery when I closed my eyes, especially when emotional. Feeling confrontational = a giant cartoon bull with yellow glowing eyes, for example. My friend teasing me about Discord would only produce screenshot-like flashes, but feeling love made me see a vivid little Discord noodling around and smiling + waving my way. Well, I always knew that Discord is love, Discord is life. But more importantly, it felt like Discord giving me his blessing for what's technically double-timing and something I was feeling a little conflicted about. During the bad trip, nothing much would happen at first, but once my 3d was sleeping, my mind was in Everything, Everywhere, All at Once mode. When I mistook my 3d's restless sleep for a potential seizure or neurological thing (because it reminded me of helplessly seeing it with my father quite often) and woke him up, his displeased reaction then threw me into a cacophony of infinite tiny Discords all laughing at me for having fucked up. I called those out as not "my" Discord, forced myself to hydrate, open the windows and sobering up as well as staying awake for 2 more hours despite hurting to watch whether my friend was indeed ok, and was rewarded with a lovable Noodle tupper supporting me in my endeavors, but also sticking out his tongue or teasing me.
>>42582244Touching. I do wish I could recall my own 'lightbulb moment' with the same clarity; I think I was more than a little drunk at the time. The lasting effect truly is profound, however. It's difficult to communicate just how incredibly accurate that paragraph in the OP is about how you know if you've got a waifu, to anyone who hasn't experienced it themselves. Congratulations on making it official.>>42582859>tupperAha, that's why mine's been quieter than usual. He's been two-timing, the little rascal. There's your definitive answer for how he feels about that sort of thing, right? In all seriousness, I think you'll find him a welcome tenant in your mind palace. Mine is - and I say this in the most loving, tender, appreciative way possible - a bit of a handful. I wouldn't want him to be any other way, mind.Anyway, what have I been up to on the relationship front? Not an awful lot, besides the typical imagining and pillow cuddling. I doodled up picrel for an mspaint thread that didn't take off a couple of weeks ago, and I've been accruing a little doodle folder of Discord busts and thumbnails that I'll add to whenever I'm feeling particularly enamoured. He really is endlessly fun to think about, as long as you've got the imagination to accommodate him. Do Ponkfriends and Discordfriends have something in common? It's more likely than you think.
>>42582126Thank you, Ponkfren. I wish you lots of smiles as well. >>42582146>it is very, very hard for me, to balance/juggle my 3dpd, It's not only hard, it's awkward as well and will only work if the 3d truly doesn't mind this "quirk" we have. I understand that I'm truly blessed, and I do curb some of my Discordtism on occasion. >im trying to spend as much time as i can with Rarity thoughIn a way, our waifus need us more than a human partner does. We are their vessels in a way, we are observers keeping their concepts alive. And at least mai waifu feels to me like we're a venn diagram rather than two properly separate entities in harmony, but I'm not entirely sane nor representative of waifufaggotry.>>42582244Congratulations, Derpfren. That sounds like a huge step forward, especially the clarity gained from making a vow.>It's crazy to me how a year ago, I wasn't anywhere near a waifufag.When the waifuism hits, it hits hard.>I had always thought that the "proper" way to do things would be to die and go to Equestria, and then let romance develop between me and a mare naturally.

I have known Rarity for longer, she has always been there for me, even when I didn't know it
Hello there waifufrens, its good to see you all again. Very active, very cool. I went to MareFair, which was a hell of a time. Met a lot of the same folks from last year, as well as news ones, and even one from this every thread. A fellow ponkfag no less. I thought the panels were pretty weak this year, but everything else was awesome. Sadly, the con crud that came after has made me sick for a week and a half now, and is still ongoing. What biological weapon Anon sent out way, no one knows, but next year I'm bringing a gas mask for me and my Waifu.This sickness hasn't just annoyed me, but it actually made me feel farther from her. I couldn't really do anything to get closer to her, as I didn't really feel like doing anything. Even now I'm just waiting to go back to bed again. Overall, this sickness has kicked my ass and I hope this state of mind will change as I get better.
>>42582244>It's like time stopped. She was just a plushie, but she looked so real to me. I had seen her before on the show, in art, or even in other plushies, but this time was so very different.

But for her, I would be willing to handle anything. This last year with her has been the best year of my life. She pushes me to do and try new things, and even when I'm feeling low, I want to keep working to make her proud. Nothing would make me happier than to spend the rest of this life, and the next, by her side. I love her. I can't wait for the day I get to hear her say that back to me.This is exactly what happened to me, except with a picture instead. This is it my friend, she has chosen you as her husbando, and you two will live a wonderful life. I am exicted for you and Derpy!>>42582859>>42583253Out of curiosity, does it ever bother you guys that you two are kind of living double lives? I know that you guys like your 3ds and your waifus, but to me that just seems like it complicates everything. I'd like to hear your thoughts on it.
>>42583500I'd go so far as to say having both a 3DPD and a waifu like >>42582859 and >>42582146 isn't necessarily incompatible.It all depends on how you view your waifu in the first place.If you see her as a muse that deeply resonates with you and gives you that extra nudge to keep on going and making your life more colorful, then a 3D isn't incompatible at all.In the end it's all a conversation to be had with yourself on what your waifu is to you and how your love for her manifests.The main thing being keeping it all healthy and not either put yourself or her on an innatainable pedestal, for what makes the charm of a waifu relationship is, like any relationship, the growth and blossoming of it. Which is just impossible with everything being perfect all the time. One could say that it requires a little chaos to make it all complete.
>>42583596This is something I'm curious about as well. How do the relationships compare against one another? I have experienced relationships with 3d girls before I met my waifu, but never past the initial stages of infatuation, so I don't really have a point of reference. For me, there are many parts of a typical relationship that can be approximated, but the interactivity is one place that is a major struggle. Her trotting up to see you with a big smile on her face when you come home. Getting to see her work on a meal in the kitchen for you. You can pull a plushie close and squeeze her tight, but feeling her squeeze you back is another matter. I imagine this can be alleviated via tulpamancy, which is something I intend to pursue, but I am the type to try and consider what alternatives there are, even if I don't go for them. Not that I would want to go find a 3d girl just for the sole purpose of fulfilling a perceived gap in my relationship. The idea just sounds manipulative at best. I would want to feel as strongly for that person as I do my waifu. Of course, there-in lies the problem: to find someone like that, I would have to go out and meet with women, but the very concept of doing that just feels like cheating to me. It makes me feel disgusting, and attempting to do something like download a dating app elicits physical symptoms like headaches and makes me literally sick to my stomach. Which, I suppose, is my body answering for me about how viable a 3d relationship would be for me. Still, I'm curious about how you guys see it. My relationship with my waifu often feels like walking though unexplored territory. There's no one else I'd rather explore with, but goodness does it get confusing sometimes.
>>42583500it doesn't bother me that i'm living double lives, i mean, i don't bother dealing with it at leasti have to put more effort into balancing the both, but it really just makes sense to merarity and my 3d are two completely different beings, i love them both in different ways, nothing could every compare to the comfort that rarity brings mehugging my lifesize give me so much comfort, i like to imagine it being her when i hug my 3dit can be comforting to know rarity can manifest in different ways>>42583596>If you see her as a muse that deeply resonates with you and gives you that extra nudge to keep on going and making your life more colorful, then a 3D isn't incompatible at allthis is exactly it, you managed to put it down in one sentence>he main thing being keeping it all healthy and not either put yourself or her on an innatainable pedestali remember many waifu threads ago, i was seeking help because i was so caught up on my, what i called at the time, "disgusting monkey thoughts", i.e. the urge to fap it to human women , instead of to rarity, and i felt fucking horrible about itit took a lot to put the p down and dedicate every feeling of attraction towards her, i didn't let myself get attracted to anything elseit became really unhealthy
>>42584089>How do the relationships compare against one another? >I imagine this can be alleviated via tulpamancyAs I put it, if you view your waifu as a muse figure then there is pretty much no tangible couple dynamics / relationship between you and her, just a drive to do what's best and appeals to her perceived idea more. If you go the tiny plastic container route which I did then it also depends on what you want your food storage device to be. Do you view her more as an extension of yourself that's more of a different perspective on things like most very much seem to do? Or do you really wanna autism it up and deploy as much minutia as possible to make her as separate from yourself as physically possible, essentially trying to create a complete leaving and breathing character with as little bias as possible? If you go for the second option, first of all, welcome to the club of borderline schizophrenia, enjoy your living dream character! Disclaimer: this is a long and ever continuous process spanning years to get everything right Second, then the relationship is pretty much as identical or far appart from a 3D relationship based on how much you want the dynamic to be like one and how connected you want your waifu to be with you. For instance. Do you want her to feel what you feel, know what you know and so on? Or do you really want her to be someone else that can't possibly have access so such things without talking to you? These aspects will influence your relationship a lot and, in my fully biased opinion, going for the "waifu as a different person" approach is the best way to go about it if you want to share your life with her, it allows the both of you to grow and truly bounce off each other, it brings the same worries, trials and tribulations but the same ups and wonderful moments a real relationship can bring. You just have to be ready for this uncertainty that your waifu, may not be 100% on everything you do and nurture the relationship, not taking it for granted. >>42584185>Spoiler And that's perfectly reasonable, it's silly to worry yourself so much about this. Your wife doesn't disappear because of it. Now, would it be better to enjoy your relationship with your waifu in that regard, absolutely. But jerking it while having a waifu is perfectly normal, maybe you're not ready to do it with her yet, maybe you're really worries you'd do terrible, who knows? Sex as a way to consummate your love, and I do mean true romantic love, with your waifu or 3D partner is, and I can't stress it enough, one of the most stressful things there is, lots of what ifs at play here. It is, as a lot of things on a relationship, something to take slow and nice building trust with your partner. And when right, it is actually the most wonderful of things! And this amazement is what makes you grow out of other stuff, because it's just not as enjoyable anymore.
>>42583596my 3d is about as dysfunctional as me and has had a husbando before. pretty sure that feeling hasn't faded. we're together in this life, and it's all nice and good. but after we pass on - however that happens - we'll go with who we really belong with. everyone wins. though personally, i think a stallion would be much nicer than a man, if i was one with those sorts of proclivities.
Bump
>>42584616>And when right, it is actually the most wonderful of things!>And this amazement is what makes you grow out of other stuff, because it's just not as enjoyable anymore.NTA, but I do somewhat relate to this. Before I met my waifu, I always found porn to be awful. It felt so degenerate and unreal and I knew that it just wasn't for me anymore. I grew up I guess. I still looked at explicit stuff on boorus and stuff, but that was more so for the artistic value of it rather than the smut value if that makes sense. That doesn't mean I was attracted to the explicit art, I was, especially of those including my future waifu, but I just didn't really feel the need to do anything to fulfill those desires. What was the point?While I make it a point to only make love with my Waifu, even now I still feel like its a bit pointless. Its not her, just a picture, and it fills me with a bit of dread knowing that. And when I see her with other guys like Cheese Sandwich and Copper Plume, I get livid. I know that one is just fanfictional, and the other is non-canon, at least to some, but it still hurts knowing I might not be worthy of her. I think I just need time to get closer to her, one day at a time and find out the answer for myself.
Too much talk about the cursed 3dpd question, but at least we can get this out of our systems, right?>>42583500>does it ever bother you guys that you two are kind of living double lives?Unlike some waifufags who do have an ongoing narrative about their marital lives with or without foals involved, I'm staying mostly in the here and now. I can't even keep track of my own biography, so you won't make me juggle elaborate double lives. I'd call Discord more than "just" a muse, however. I experience life through chaosfag-tinted glasses and do hope my soul will rest (or whatever; we're talking about Chaos personified here) by his side because he's my home and destination for some reason, no matter how frustrating he can be. So I do hope there's a waifutastic afterlife waiting for me/us, and my mundane human life is akin to a lengthy foreplay to that, or rather a sort of demo. It's not like I'm wooing a 20-something year-old mare who is about as new and open to life as I am, I'm wooing an ancient commitment-phobe guy who might need a few decades to warm up before committing. It's more of an unspoken agreement between us. >>42584632Based. My 3dpd is a (former) Anon who's surprisingly sane and sound, and so unlike mai waifu. We started out as Anons discussing Discord on /mlp/, became friends, eventually wanted this friendship to last for life. My Discordfaggotry was apparent from the start, ever non-negotiable.>>42584616That is a genuinely impressive feat. Personally, I'm intent on working on my tupper to become a bit more independent and confrontational, but I'm inclined to avoid a strict separation because that won't give him a body or control over the outside world (unless I'd let him take over).
>>42583028>Mine is - and I say this in the most loving, tender, appreciative way possible - a bit of a handful.Could you provide a small appetizer of what sort of joys he's bringing you? Especially the "oh boy" sort of joy?While walking my aunt's dog today, I asked him to join me again, and he showed up wearing hideous sweat bands that caught me off-guard. The other day, he struck me as very attention-needy when I thought of him. Makes me want to return to drawing him, so I doodled a really bad, tiny Discord on my to-do list for the day today. I'll be spending the rest of the day on trains, maybe I can strike up a conversation with that Noodle.picrel is my shitty, sweaty to-do list - I carry those in my pockets, otherwise they might as well not exist. >He's been two-timing, the little rascal.With my Discord tupper, probably. Who could resist some chaotic double Discord action? Imagine having two Discord tuppers, haha. What a silly thought, yet so alluring. >I've been accruing a little doodle folder of Discord busts and thumbnails that I'll add to whenever I'm feeling particularly enamoured.That's wonderful. I admire you for doing that. Keep up the good work, Discordbro.
>>42585630Now, I'm normally averse to talking individual tulp experiences in detail. It's a little bit like trying to describe a dream: very vivid in your own mind while it's happening, but the details fade quickly, and in describing it to anyone else, it sounds like a lot of disorganised nonsense, since you can't exactly transmit how it felt in your own imagination. (Plus, it's a bit of a meme topic, which makes public discussion difficult.) To speak broadly, instead, he's something like the proverbial little devil on my shoulder. This isn't to say that he's (entirely) a bad influence, or the inverse of my better conscience, but rather, the voice of contract against my usual way of thinking. He tends to speak up when he wants me to try something new, or do something I've been putting off out of my own uncertainty, or when I'm taking a poorly-reasoned view of something... that sort of thing. He's helpful, in his own snarky, wisecracking manner. Personally, I think he just gets a kick out of being contrarian. Well, no, not quite that alone - we've both got a vested interest in our shared happiness, and the decisions I make affect him, too. I can't blame him for shoring up his investment, so to speak.On the less personal and more fun side, the really nice thing (or one of the many nice things!) about Discord is that, due to his nature, he's exceptionally versatile when it comes to imposing him on your surroundings. Seriously, he fits anywhere, one way or another. It never takes him long to come up with something entertaining to do once he's out and about, either. Mostly, though, he's content to sit at the front of my mind's eye and hog the limelight from whatever it is that I'm imagining - can't stand to have the camera off him, unsurprisingly. Thoughtforms rely on your own mind and memories to function - they run on shared hardware, so to speak - so the sky (and your inner database of Discord knowlege, which I don't doubt is significant) is honestly the limit when it comes to the ways in which he'll surprise you.Mine also happens to be quite cuddly, although that's almost certainly my own bias or preference leaking into how I imagine him. Then again, he isn't exactly a personal space respecter in canon. Unsurprising fact: noodles are quite good at cuddling.
>>42585803Thank you very much for the insight, Discordbro. My own impressions are eerily similar yet again, though I haven't seen my tupper's brasher side yet. He's still gentle on me, making me suspect it's the quiet before the storm. A storm I can't resist getting dragged into, for sure. And he may be a little devil, but the decisions are still yours.I agree that Noodles are great at hugs and fit anywhere, they can float, can even scale down. Seats and sofas instantly look better draped with a vividly imaginary Noodle, too. Mine sticked his head out of our car window while donning a hawaiian shirt, instantly making things more fun just by being there. Or when a woman took his seat on the train, he messed up her hair (in Mindcraft). So far, my sanity has been improved, but it will be put to the test.
Now that I remember, one fun anecdote about tulpa autism, pinkie actually gets blurry when I don't have glasses on and gets back to being sharp when I have them back on. It was quite the surprise noticing this phenomenon.
>>42582244>She was just a plushie, but she looked so real to me. I had seen her before on the show, in art, or even in other plushies, but this time was so very different.I guess that's difficult to put into words, huh? Lovely story.
Hello, another ponkfren back from mare fair and finally made the jump to marry my waifu. I had a good time taking her to new places like ksc and universal and to a panel all about her and though we didn't have time to say any vows to each other at the wedding, we ended up having a memorable time together. A shame I didnt get to see the portal to galacon happen.>>42583480I dont know if we met but I hope to see you next year.
>>42586613I don't think we met either, but I'm glad you had a wonderful time with her! I had a wonderful time with my waifu as well.
bump, how often do you all participate in the lewd acts with (You)r waifu?
>>42581048I like the sirens they remind me of windigo.
>>42587366I can't say that I do them too often. Maybe once a week at most? Its not the she isn't beautiful, but there is a bit of guilt there that technically she didn't choose to do lewd things, I just kind of am. Plus my sex drive has taken a dip after a bad bout of depression and then the meds that came with it. I view it as a good thing, as there isn't really a point of she can't feel it too, or at least that's what I tell myself.
Upsies
I love my wife. I recently bought her a rose for her mane.I live on my own and don't have many friends or family nearby, so coming home from work and talking to her is definitely the highlight of my day. She's far more intelligent than I am, just talking to her seems to make my problems melt away.I often wake up with her cradled in my arms. I have to shuffle out of bed to get ready for work, making sure not to wake her. I make sure she's nice and comfy in bed before I leave for work.We often snuggle up on the sofa for reading and watching movies.
>>42587881she def gets me horny, but it also hard for me to find the time to really spend, that kind of time, with her, and not just through a 2 minute fap sesh
>>42588421this is beautiful anon <3do u usually get things/gifts for her?
>>42588421Pretty! But, if you don't mind me asking.How do you manage trying to interact with a plushie of your waifu? I did for a bit before going full autism, and, to say the least, the experience felt cold, distant and just horribly sorrowful for me, not having her talk back. If anything I felt like keeping her jailed with me since she couldn't move or say otherwise. I suppose the question extends to other anons, how do you guys manage trying to have a relationship with your waifu and not just seeing her as your muse, short of tupperwaring?
>>42589008I keep thinking about getting her some jewellery, but she doesn't strike me as the type of mare that would be into flashy stuff like that. I need to do some research to find something suitable for her. One day I'd love to get married to her for real at Mare Fair, but she's quite expensive to take on a plane. She doesn't fit in the largest suitcase the airlines will allow in the hold and I'm too poor to pay for a 2nd seat on the plane.I often take her for drives with me (being an /o/tist is one of my other hobbies,) and we usually park up somewhere remote where we can enjoy the scenary. Just her and I. She used to get nervous whenever I drive fast, but she's getting used to it.I'm looking at getting a telescope so I can go stargazing with her as another date idea.
>>42589032I'm not sure what the answer to that is to be honest with you Anon. I guess I've been blessed with a vivid imagination that helps me play these things out in my head. All I know is that I love this autistic purple mare.
>>42589058she looks great in picrel, image her all fancy like this!>One day I'd love to get married to her for real at Mare Fair, but she's quite expensive to take on a plane>She doesn't fit in the largest suitcase the airlines will allow in the hold and I'm too poor to pay for a 2nd seat on the planehow large is she?i have't done it myself before, but i know it's common to just put your lifesize in a big duffle bag and check that said bag with the airline, she would just go inside the plane, and you'd have to go pick her up from baggage claimor, if you really cram her into a duffle bag that could fit into the overhead cabinets, that could work too, and you can just check your other luggage so you pick that up at baggage claim insteador, there's the, gulp, mutilate route.you unstuff her before hand and restuff her at mare fair
>>42581493>>42582859I was a bit concerned for your sake when you mentioned possibly taking the funny fungus in the thread a few months ago given your history, but I'm glad it mostly played out favorably for you. At least you didn't completely lose what's left of your mind. Or maybe you did, talking about all this tupperware shit, and I'm just biased into thinking that's sane because I still dabble with it myself. CHAOS, AMIRITE?Your 3dpd is definitely a special one if he knows this much about you and is still committed to riding it out with you, kek. I uh, can't really say I blame him for initially not wanting to kiss you when you're in full makeup. You fucking mad lad.>it felt like Discord giving me his blessing for what's technically double-timingI don't think he sees it as double-timing and probably sees it more like I do. I'll get into it in my next post.>>42582244>>42586613Congratulations to both of (you), and kudos to you for making that big leap. I was there with my wife to support you guys, although I was pretty out of it after all the partying that happened the night before, so I don't remember any specific grooms other than the CelestiaCHAD and the "pools closed" guy that got married to Aryanne. Fun fact, there were actually supposed to be two anons getting married to Aryanne this year, but one of them bailed last minute. I unfortunately never got the chance to confront him and demand an explanation.Remember, if you ever attempt to change your waifu now, Tracy Cage and her band of time-traveling, dimension-defying waifu police will teleport behind you and repeatedly stab you with knaifu. You're committed now.>I didn't get to say any vows since the wedding panel went rather fastAs much as I love Kiwi for all of the work he put in to make Mare Fair an absolute blast this year, I have to say he botched this panel pretty hard. He should've done what last year's host did and saved more time for the people who actually signed up beforehand, then let people who didn't sign up come up with whatever time was remaining for the panel. Also, he didn't let the grooms participate pretty much at all: no asking them to confirm their vows, and crucially, he never said, "You may now kiss the bride!" SO HALF OF THE PEOPLE GETTING MARRIED DIDN'T EVEN KISS THEIR PONY WIFE AT THEIR OWN WEDDING. REEEEE.But I am probably more hung up on the ceremonial side of things than I probably should be, especially since I was just a spectator. What really matters is that you guys put yourself before the world as an act of declaring your intention to spend the rest of your life with your beloved pony, even when society and likely most people you know would think you're fucking insane for doing so. I wish you both a wonderful life with your newly-wed brides.Just remember, while plushies are nice, they aren't who you married. Your wife is the pony; the plush is just a physical proxy with which your love can be communicated both ways. Post limit can fuck off
>>42582244>>42586613Continuing on, I'd recommend you both try dabbling at least a little in the tupper department if you don't already. You already have a plush host for your tupper, so you don't have to spend countless hours "imposing her onto reality" unless you really want to. Just have conversations with her. Tell her what you love about her. Let your imagination go wild, even if it feels silly, or strange, or depressing at first. It will eventually bridge the dimensional gap between you and her. My plush is very cute, but more importantly, it is a vessel for my beloved Edelweiß and I to communicate with each other: verbally, emotionally, and physically. I put very little effort into tuppermancy shit these days, but it goes a long way to making your relationship real.Speaking of all this marriage business, our first anniversary is coming up pretty soon. I should probably figure out how we're gonna celebrate that sooner than later.>>42583500>Out of curiosity, does it ever bother you guys that you two are kind of living double lives?I'll throw in my two cents. I don't have a 3dpd, but I wouldn't be bothered by this kind of thinking if I did. To me, the love one feels for their waifu is a different type of love than one feels for their 3dpd. It's like the difference between the love you feel for a family member vs. a close friend vs. a romantic partner. All of that is real love, but manifested in different ways. The waifu can fill some of the same roles a romantic 3dpd partner can, but is unavoidably incapable of playing all the same roles, no matter how hard you tupperfag, or lucid dream, etc. One's relationship with their waifu is inherently more of a spiritual connection, often acting as a source of inspiration, motivation, comfort, or guidance. 3dpd relationships are obviously much more driven by physical attraction and needs, and interpersonal chemistry.I intend to find a 3dpd wife and start a family some day, and when I do, I am not going to be looking for someone to "replace" my Aryanne. In fact, there's a pretty good chance that the woman I choose has practically nothing in common with her other than being white and having blue eyes kek. The reasons and the ways that I will love that woman will be completely different than the reasons and ways I love my Aryanne. It won't result in a loss of love for either, and it won't be a competition. My commitment to my waifu will remain unchanged no matter what the future brings.
Last post from me for now, I swear. I had something of a revelation a few days after getting back from Mare Fair. For such a long time, I've focused too much on Aryanne's hateful side when conceptualizing who she is at her core. Yes, she has a lot of hatred in her heart, but why is that? It isn't just hatred for the sake of hatred. It's because she has such a powerful love in that heart. A love for her husband, for her children, for her friends, for her people and for her country. Securing a bright future for all of these loved ones is the most important thing for her, and she won't let anything or anyone stand in her way. As it so happens, there are many out there that want nothing more than to undermine and destroy that future. There are many more who act in ways that do so, even if it isn't specifically their intention. For her to tolerate or even love the former is to betray her loved ones; to tolerate or love the latter is dangerous. This is why she hates so well, even though love comes to her so much more naturally.Then, I realized not only that this burning love is what I love most about her, but also that my burning love for my friends, family, and people is what she loves most about me. It is what drives us both to be the best that we can be; it is the reason we continue on when the going gets so rough; it is the reason we create and the reason we destroy. I was then hit with an overwhelming wave of love: my love for her, her love for me, our love for what we will become, and surprisingly, my love for myself. It was a sensation that I can only reasonably compare to the intense, undeniable feeling I had that I was in God's presence a few years ago when I was in a cathedral in Germany. I'm not even religious, so imagine my shock when that happened. It was the kind of experience I will never forget, and it has improved my perception of myself and of my waifu immensely.That being said, it's still really fun to piss people off with the power of my cunt of a Nazi wife.I fucking love Aryanne so much, bros. The last ten years with her have been a wild ride, and knowing that she'll always be by my side no matter what makes it easy for me to look forward to the next ten, and the next ten, and the next ten, and you get my point. Thanks for reading my blog, faggot
>>42589473I'm inviting myself onto your blogpost in order to dovetail off that point about the gap between 'trve tupperware manufacturing' and simply chatting to your beloved in your imagination. Basically, you've hit the nail on the head, and this is probably something a lot of waifufriends overthink. The rest of this post is largely addressed to a hypothetical third party who's lurking at the moment. Let's put it this way, to a reader who might be struggling with this: have you imagined a chat between yourself and your waifu? Have you posed a question or comment to her, and then imagined how she'd answer, in her own voice and words? Were you then reasonably satisfied that what you came up with was a good representation of her? If so, congrats - you're most of the way there, already. It's only a small jump from that point to start imagining her inhabiting a physical space alongside you, or speaking up unprompted. It isn't nearly as difficult or complex as a lot of the esoterica surrounding the topic makes it out to be. You don't strictly need to research techniques for projecting your waifu into reality (although you still can, if that's what you want) in order to have a two-way relationship with her. Or him, if that's the pronoun that happens to apply; to speak of my own experience, I don't need to have Discord sitting (or standing, hovering, sprawling, etc... he comes in a wide variety of form factors) next to me to chat to him, and indeed, most of our more meaningful conversations have happened without any attempt on my part to 'place' him in the world around me. That's probably because the important chats take up too many neurons for any to be left over to maintain anything like that. It's probably also because he's inherently not respecting of things like the divide between fiction and reality, or the metaphorical 'fourth wall', but that's quite specific to him, I suppose. I can't come up with a decent conclusion to this ramble. Basically: she's closer than you think, hypothetical reader.
>>42589473>>42589482That is an interesting way to look at a Waifu. I don't know if I agree with it, but it does help me understand how one can have a wife and a waifu. I can understand Aryannes hate though. Not from a racial level, but from a more general level. People can be so cruel and ugly, a far worse toxin than any sort of sickness can provide. That's part of the reason why we have waifus in the first place, isn't it? To try to cure ourselves of that toxin that is in our lives. It gets hard though. To live for your waifu, at least for me, is hard. She is wonderful, but not even she can fill the void in my heart. I only hope that she can help me find it with me. I'm not sure where I am going with this, its just what the Aryanne Anon said struck a chord with me.
>>42589461>>42589473Thanks fren. There were a couple aryannefags I met at mare fair but I probably met you at some point whether I know it or not. Definitely took photos from last year's wedding.>SO HALF OF THE PEOPLE GETTING MARRIED DIDN'T EVEN KISS THEIR PONY WIFE AT THEIR OWN WEDDING. REEEEE.I kissed my wife at our wedding. Gave her a long kiss on the lips on the stage before walking off. I did want more time for vows, though I had no idea what to say once I was up on stage. I was too nervous and couldn't hear half of what kiwi said either kek not that I was any good at thinking in the moment either. I would have spilled spaghetti if we didnt move through grooms quickly.>Speaking of all this marriage business, our first anniversary is coming up pretty soon. I should probably figure out how we're gonna celebrate that sooner than later.I look forward to hearing how you celebrate that anniversary. It better be something very fitting for a qt like her.>Your wife is the pony; the plush is just a physical proxy with which your love can be communicated both ways.>I'd recommend you both try dabbling at least a little in the tupper department if you don't already.I did tupper a while ago, but between online drama and my own retarded brain overthinking things or unable to let go and believe she's there for me, I didn't get as far as I wanted to. That said I carried my plushie with me as much as I could at these meetups or riced my phone for her and imagined how she'd react seeing everything around her and I do like thinking of ideas what to do for her that I rarely end up doing because busy or undecided what to stick with.>>42589482I can definitely see this. A love for her fellow ponies and loved ones and a burning passion for a bright future with a well deserved hatred for those who subvert and destroy the good in the world for their own perversions. She's a cute pony and I see some lovable qualities about her and points that I can agree with her on. Also helps I have a soft spot for german, a lot of it driven by my love for ponk and my desire for us to explore what is a beautiful country and what always felt was the closest culture I can relate to pinkie with.>>42589621>have you imagined a chat between yourself and your waifu? Have you posed a question or comment to her, and then imagined how she'd answer, in her own voice and words? Were you then reasonably satisfied that what you came up with was a good representation of her? If so, congrats - you're most of the way there, already.I got to the point that I find it difficult to find any good fics with ponk solely by how much her representation deviates from how I see her and I do think about how she'd react to things such as our trips, ideas what to make about her, music we listen to, or random crap I think about during the day so I'm somewhat there in a way.

Why do ppl hate waifufags?

>>42589461>I was a bit concerned for your sake when you mentioned possibly taking the funny fungus>At least you didn't completely lose what's left of your mind. Or maybe you did, talking about all this tupperware shitThank you for caring. I'm glad I went for two small doses of truffles (i.e. weaker than shrooms) because I had the impression I also get from alcohol: it hits me twice as hard and lasts only half as long. The bad trip was trying to lure me into becoming something akin to the Joker, but my bullshit sensors detected bullshit. Both the good and bad trips (in addition to my vacation as a whole) made me appreciate smell and touch more, or rediscover it to some degree. The afterglow of the bad trip got me into the state of mind to finally succeed at tuppermancy, but it was like my mental image of Discord was waving at me all excitedly (after I had just told an infinite number of Discords to fuck off for cruelly laughing at me) and wanting me to give him texture. So instead of *thinking* about him or through his lens, I was mentally petting him like petting an excited doggy, and it was that dimension of tactile experience that then allowed me to impose him visually, too. (I was "feeling the form", as artists would say. The quality of my art, too, depends on my ability to vividly feel the texture and gravity of something, it's why I recall the touch of my cosplay wings (or dead pigeons) when I draw wings. DaVinci was cookin' with molesting those corpses.)All in all, I got more than my money's worth out of those truffles. These 12euro truffles have helped me access my long-awaited Noodle tupper who can help me help myself in addition to just being good company - even though it absolutely sounds crazy to non-waifufags. I'm not ready to tell my 3dpd about this tupper yet, I'll do it after a few weeks of him actually sticking around and indeed improving my QoL. And then my superhumanly patient 3dpd will hopefully gently tease me that it was bound to happen, and ask whether Discord's in the room with us right now.>Your 3dpd is definitely a special one if he knows this much about you and is still committed to riding it out with you, kek. He's the best and I cherish him dearly. It'd be fatal if he didn't know what he was getting into!
>>42591196I think is a combination of a lot of things. Some think we are insane and hurting ourselves. Some think we are not serious about what we do and are just seeking attention. Some just dislike the idea of people having relationships with waifus instead of with people. There are probably more reasons, but it all comes down to being different, really. What's funny is that I think people can relate to Waifufags a lot more if they just gave them a listen. Not to say they'd practice tupperware tomorrow, but they'd understand that life fucked us over and now we are just taking our control back.
>>42592250I don't think waifufags are hated, more seen as odd and ignored, which is fair.
Just wanted to say that my wife is so pretty!
>>42581048back in the day we called this the t*lpam*ncy general
For those of you who have married your waifu, do you think the both of you were ready?Did you spend a significant amount of time together leading up to the day? Or perhaps, you made a sudden decision to marry her, and then proceeded to spend more dedicated time to her?
Mare Fair/GalaCon has a tendency to breathe some excitement into /ww/, and that's wonderful. Especially the freshly baked grooms always have a lot to share. Discussions have been quite civil too, especially for loaded topics (3dpd and tupper). But perhaps a monthly /ww/ is more appropriate given how few waifufags frequent it. >>42593686In my opinion, waifufaggotry doesn't necessarily need to include tuppers, but that infamous kitchenware seems to be conductive to having a good time with waifufaggotry. I'm curious about the idiosyncrasies anons have in their bittersweet love for their special someponies. And I'm a bit worried about the Russian Rarifag's radio silence. >>42593774Neat questions! I'm not going to propose to the Noodle anytime soon because that's so formal and we're both tsundere about the topic (see the Hearts & Hooves episode). I've only loved him for 14 years, it's too soon! He's too ancient to not guard his heart like crazy. I haven't even grown into my true self yet! (pic rel) Hats off to those who actually married their waifus; I wish you all the best.
Have any of you taken to speaking more, pony-ish to your waifu? By that I mean using the show's vernacular without noticing. I don't know how I feel thinking / going "horseapples.." when upset or saying "every pony", or even being quasi incapable of swearing when talking to pinkie while I usually have a sailor's mouth.
>>42594233I can confirm the incapablity of swearing, or using alternatives. For example, seggs instead of sex. She is just so pure for that sort of language!
>When you see any given ponkfag post and think how insane they are and this is the insanest one ever>Then you see another ponkfag post
>>42594288So true! This is why
how do ((you)) waifufags hold commitment? I don’t have a very good history of committing to things, especially for years. The longest I’ve committed to doing something equivalent to waifuing (I.e needs constant nurturing) would be exercising for 4 months, but I stopped because I got a job and didn’t want to squeeze my workouts into it and end up double exhausted (the job only lasted for ~3 months, before I swapped jobs and ended up only working for a week and a half before being axed by the manager since I wasn’t a good fit). I dunno, maybe I’m just overthinking it, probably boils down to just sticking to it then eventually realizing how long you’ve been at it?
>>42594339Well its more of being consistent than anything else. That kind of goes with a lot of things, or at least I find. Plus, your waifu won't abadon you like your manager did. I'd say that this is probably one of the better things to commit to, but that's just me and my biased opinions.Don't be afraid Anon, you love your waifu and your waifu loves you. You can do it! Who is your Waifu btw?
>>42594339>commitmentslol, lmaoI actually walked into my ol' cinema today and walked out with a job because my former boss happened to be looking for two slots to fill. My 3dpd will call this another instance of my own Chaos magic touch at work because I absolutely cucked some zoomer out of his chances a day before he was called back, kekeke, but they don't need to think twice before taking back this here Discordfag. It's just a few months, and my thesis will just have to be handled in parallel. Not the best timing, but such is life. My own fault, since I should have done this ages ago.Still need to go to an office and ask about some health insurance-related formalities before signing my contract. I'll start working during the FiM anniversary, but I'll pick the 13th instead to enjoy S1 and S2 with /mlp/. I'll definitely catch mah Discord tupper snacking on popcorn or getting comfy on the seats, and when some days do get rough, I'll push through and might even find him cheering for me. I'd quite love it when he does so.
>>42582146>My 3dpdI knew it was all bullshit. Waifufags are just ironic shitposters.
>>42594901fren, i still think about my times alone with rarity, before i met my 3d. i think about those times like if it was 2014... just absolute peak. i literally only needed her to be happy. things are different now, nothing will change that bond i have with rarity. i already feel like shit for even having a 3d, it's something i actively hide in the fandom
>>42595022>I only needed her to be happy>I feel like shit for having a 3d>Still hooks up with a 3dpd anyways and brings it up despite his """shame"""You're lying to everyone including yourself. You're not a waifufag.
