Never had friends...sexdoll update

be warned the the doll weight is real. 30kg is liftable but once you age it get harder to lift. also silicone dolls havve to be washed in the shower with soap (very mild soap) and war m water to rinse off dust and particles and dirt. the you have to wash off the soap with the showerhead. then you gotta dry her and once she is dried with a clean microfiber towel you have to wait for her to be sticky and then apply a bit of baby powder. notice i siad a little bit, so buy a make up brush, dip it in the baby powder, shake it off in the baby powder container and once it does not falls anymore you apply some and ou know it works since the doll is not sticky but soft. you have to do that every 2 weeks to prevent the dust buildup and penetration of dirt and stuff.
BTW NEVER EVER do RAW. You will get mold and mold has to be killed with hydrogen perixode 5min soak in the tunel, then rinse out with warm water and then with 1ml of BLEACH in the douche bottle filled with warm water and you let sit for 10 minutes.
You flush out the bleach with warm water until the smell of bleach is gone and you do the peroxide and bleach again. The peroxide and bleach should never touch or be mixed, always be rinsed out.
It happened to me since i was careless and some dolls have textures vaginal and anal tunnels so cum can stick the crevices and rot there.
Use a condom, it's still fun. and TPE dolls are technically less maintenance than silicone dolls since you can put them on a water proof tarp, put on oil all over their body and remove dirt and powder them later. Silicone have to be cleaned in a shower wich over time if you get weaker like me becomes difficult. if your health decline like me, i keep my dolls clothed on pillows on my bed at all times and i wash theirs tunnels on my bed with the soapy water that i use the douche bottle as in the shower but i put the micro fiber towels in the entrance of the tunnels so it absords all the water. it works.
i'm in a similar boat but i stopped chasing women once i got my doll and eventually i got a gf that was unstable and she left becaue she was sadly crazy. best sex ever worst relationship ever.
good luck.
You you wwan to get the hang of caring for a doll (you are enssentially "caring" for a person shaped object that is quadriplegic essentially) get a cheap doll that you know will break and see for the while it lasts how to clean it and use it. Cheap TPE heads can be found on aliexpress and temu, it is cheap and a good starting point. note TPE do NOT retain color well so al lthe make up fade away. Dark clothes or fabric will stain TPE dolls and skin so make them wear light clothes liike whaites and light blues.
i hope you have fun :)
