Hello. My name is Eli.

I've been out of the hobby for many years. I focused on myself and a career. Hobbies had to be sacrificed to get through school and make workplace advancements. It was rough, but I am back and ready to adopt.

This is gonna sound a tad spiritual and weird but...the dolls tell me who they really are. I might have a character and storyline in mind, and they might agree with it, but sometimes they don't, and we smash heads. Then I'm just disappointed in what I couldn't bring together.
I had only two BJDs for a long time. We couldn't bond cuz they didn't fit what I envisioned and that disheartened me. It's been probably nine years since I really interacted with them. I now know who they are and what their personalities are like. Now I really love those two and have bonded in an affectionate way. I buy them clothes, I get excited to take pictures, I consider their likes and dislikes.

I guess you can think of it in a "everything has a soul" type of mentality. Every incoming doll has a plan but I keep myself open to the happiness of the object that is arriving.
