When my friend Monty got driven into the arms of a life size, fake, female doll, I couldn’t believe it. I knew he’d become soured on relationships with women after three disappointing ones. I knew he’d become like a card carrying member of MGTOW, Men Going Their Own Way Without Women. But a doll, a freakin’ doll! I felt like he’d lost his mental faculties, and, as if his unrewarding outcomes with women, drove him into the arms of a fake woman doll.
He even introduced me to her, called her Sally. However, I must admit, Sally, who Monty said he bought in a thrift store, looked a damn sight better than those sex dolls with overblown boobs and big round, gross lips, like a freakin’ carp fish. Sally looked … real … natural. And she was pretty enough without fake, unrealistic beauty. And her body was far more natural than those grotesque sex dolls. As a man who swore off women, myself, had I been as desperate as Monty, I might have said, “Does she have a sister?”
But I’m a realist and lack the imagination to pretend I’m having conversations with a freakin’ doll. But as the days, months, and years passed with Monty still in love with his doll, I began to see the advantages: no arguments, no compromising, no complaints, no conflicts of interest, no having to do things for love you wouldn’t ordinarily do, no breakups, no broken hearts.
And despite my reservations, more than a few times, I dreamily thought about a relationship nirvana in a female doll. But that all ended, when Monty called me sobbing. He tearfully said he and Sally had broken up, and he was going back to MGTOW for solace and camaraderie.
That was it for me. I returned the 5 star female doll I’d secretly bought on Amazon. I tail-between-the-legs sheepishly phoned an ex-girlfriend I’d sworn I’d never go back with and never answered her many phone messages pleading to get back with me. Sure, it’s going to be complicated, and it might cost me, but at least a living breathing something is better than a lifeless doll nothing. At least for now.
As for Monty, a hot, real life, aggressive woman just snagged him. So far, he seems happy.
