For The Toy Inclined

First let me say, my wife is not a big fan of insertion toys. Every now and then okay and sometimes even better than okay but they aren't really her gig. We have a very full drawer but most seem to collect dust except for those occassional encounters.

Now what is her gig is her clit vibrator. It's a stubby little thing with a flat top (well it has bumps but is straight across) that takes one little ole AA battery. I bought her this little gem a couple years ago and within oh I don't know about 45 seconds it became very dear to her heart.

It really is a wonderful toy that has brought us both a lot of pleasure. It's her favorite masturbation toy and it is in constant use during sex. Sometimes she even uses it on me.

At any rate, this poor little guy has worked his little plastic ass off and more than delivered on the $9 he cost me. Now he's starting to waver a little bit. Connectors seem to be going. Hell, one night I had to stop, turn on the lights, pull out my Leatherman and go to work on the toy before she would go any further.

So I go to the toy shop a little while back thinking I'd get her another. They didn't have an exact match but had a nice egg with a cool wired remote. Just the ticket I thought. But, no. It isn't quite right, isn't quite the same. It gets some use but in other ways and thats another story.

So again a couple nights ago ole Mr. Happy started coughing and sputtering until she got him going just right again. So the next day I mentioned that I had found the identical toy at another shop and I wanted to run and get it for her.

She got just a slight bit defensive. In fact I believe her words were' "You're not taking my toy, MAN!"

"But it is the exact same one honey," I told her.

"Well, get it if you want, but don't touch my old one!"

So my question is this, how do wheen a grown woman off a toy that is beginning to give up the ghost? I mean if this toy up and dies it could be a matter of national security!

I just laughed so hard I think a little pee came out.

Sorry, I have nothing to add in the way of advice.

~WOK

Sure, sure laugh. But have you ever tried to get a fresh bone away from a hungry pitbull?

hehe

Just let the damn thing die.

*grin*

Have the new replica of the old one in reserve of course.

I expect her tune will change fairly fast.

LOL.

Mine would.

That's really funny! Just let her keep it, it can't hurt anything.

I have that kind of attachment to a very small flogger... it originally came on a keychain, and its not strong enough for a real spanking (although it does sting a bit). Sometimes, after I come, I curl up under the covers with it... my grown up version of a stuffed animal.

Don't wean her off it. Buy the replacement and keep it as back up for when her toy dies. Maybe she'll be more receptive then.

You should never never take what is dear to someone....it would be like someone taking one of your ole guns......wouldn't like that to much would you??????

I too have known the heartbreak of killing a favorite toy. I have burnt out many a motor - the clerks at my old sex toy store knew me well - and all I can say is, always keep a back up! There is nothing worse than working towards that crucial moment, knowing you're about to reach it, and then... *sputter* *cough* *silence*, all followed quickly by my tears and screams of frustration. Heck, I even buy batteries in bulk just in case!

Women can get very emotional about things as we all know so what you should do is have a very intimate wake and then a discreet burial in the back yard. Wrap up the new gift and present it to her with a bottle of her favorite wine to lessen any inhibitions she may have about it. After all, it IS the new B.O.B. (battery operated boyfriend)

I agree with the others. Buy her a new one and wait until the old one dies. I've had the misfortune of getting rid of one that I sucked shriveled. Unfortunately, nothing has replaced it and I can't find the same one again.

Buy the replacement while you can.

Buy the replacement now and keep it in the batter-up box. She may play with it alone and decide she likes it too that way. I like the wine idea too- classic and sweet.

Oh! LOL..giggles and grins...

nothing last forever.. have a back up handy...

I have a pitbull. And I did have a wife. I'd rather try and take the bone from the pit, rather then the sex toy from your wife.

Let her keep it until it dies. I suspect you will be fixing it a few more times before it does though.

You could always have a spray bottle next to you.. and as you switch the toys spray her nose... yell "NO BITE" and then have her re adjust to the new one after the old one dies.
... hey... It works for the dog ::

Might I suggest...

It might be a good idea to splurge and buy several IDENTICAL replacements. This way, if the toy is ever completely discontinued, you will never have a problem finding another. They'll be in a drawer.

Now, as for how to wean -- I agree with most; let it die. I would have one replacement with batteries in and at easy reaching distance just in case it dies at THE most inopportune moment, as Murphy's Law states it will.

I do, however, also like Blue's idea...

Too Funny

I think it's jsut a "sentimental value" thing. I've got lots electrionic game deelys that I've kept long after they couldn't work anyrmoe just cos of who I got them from. Yeah it's stupid but hey.. I don't use them I play the other games. Let her keep the thing and when she want relief she can use the backup. where do you get one with the knobs on it? I don't have one of those!

I'm sure it might of been thought of. But you could use parts from the replacement one to fix up the old one. The old one is tried and true...so a little fixing up might be what it needs?

So, I'm not really sure why but no one has asked what the toy is called.... I wanna know! Sounds like I might need to develop an attachment to this toy!

Need to get one of my own.. so help me out!

Hello? Would love to know what the toy is called.... Please oh Please!

Not sure if anyone noticed but this thread was started in Nov. 2003. I checked and the OP has not posted anything since late 2004.

Sorry littlebitshe - I would love to have known too.

LMAO reading this thread. SOOOO true. We have a hand held "plug in" massager with various attachments. The wife is totally in love with this thing. And so am I. One night in the middle of getting warmed up together. There's a loud "POP" and sparks start flying. A worn spot in the middle of the cord. Blew the breaker for the bedroom wall. I spent the next 10 minutes with wire cutters and electrical tape. And very happy wife when I turned it back on and it "buzzed" back to life.

I know exactly the little number your wife is so enamored of, and it's aptly called a "Pocket Rocket". A wonder of a tiny powerhouse, a thing of good cheer and happiness, I understand how any woman could find herself in a major funk over losing such a dear friend. I loved mine so much I bought one as a gift for a single friend of mine. I didn't see her for 3 days. Seriously.

While I miss the portability, I have since grown to love my eroscillator. There are no batteries to wear out at exactly the wrong moment and there's a nice assortment of attachments to be had. It was spendy, but mine is now nearly 10 years old and still humming like a top. They are built to become family heirlooms.

Faced with the same situation, I finally talked my wife into going shopping at the toy store....A nice "well lighted" one run by a woman's co-op...She chose a couple of vibes that looked like they could do the job... and a couple of back ups.

Now we go in every so often to see what's new. Keeps things interesting..

I understand about the loyalty...I mean really, why would you want to ever part with something that had done nothing but nice things to you?

I had a great electric one that was fraying at the connection to the unit and I chose to ignore the 'fray' as it only shocked me a little bit if I was careless. But the night it started smoking was the last time I used that little darling. Being loyal...the next day I was online ordering exactly the same thing...and I still use it. LOVE IT. I shouldn't mention the name but if anyone is curiuos...pm me, I'll tell.
