Have you made provisions for your dolls if you die?

It did cross my mind about making provisions not just for my dolls but my other possessions as well, but then my possessions and dolls are precious only to me, I think, and may not mean a thing to others (family or friends)who are not into these kind of things, so I'll just let things be and enjoy my dolls while I can, amen.

 

Interesting. He'll probably be cremated with me or given to my mum. <-- Provided that my mum wants it. =3

 

Id let my sister have them. I woudln't want her to hold them to the personality's I comnjured for them, as thats how I saw them, and being as Im worm-food, then those characters cease to exist as they were...I know she'd treasure them, as she's like that (when her cat died, she wore his collar on her wrist with all her other punk bracelets...it blended in so well, but it was still there.)

 

I do think it is important to leave instructions for those you love. My death is going to traumatize my wife and our son deeply. We are a very close family. She won't want to have to try and make decisions about objects when she is grieving me.

Glory is an alter ego of mine, so I don't know if my wife would want to keep her around or if that would be too painful. My son loves BJD's, so my dolls will go to him. He can always tuck them away for the future if he can't bear to play with them now.

Certainly I want my family to feel that they could sell my dolls to meet my final expenses if needed. I want them to keep those things they want to keep. Funerary arrangements are insanely expensive, and I want my family to have it as easy as possible.

 

I hadent thought on it and laughed out loud when I read the title on the thread but after reading some of your posts It really making me start to wonder, I think Id like to know that Caleb, and any other dolls I have will be looked after when I pass on I dont think Caleb would like to be buried with me but it's good to know that hell be beutifull forever.

 

LOL- can you teach us the secret then?

 

Well, it might sound silly or stupid thinking. But one nite, I dunno what happen to me, suddenly there's something come in my mind keep on popping out this question. Have u ever think of ur dolls future?

I was thinking, yeah.. my doll... Well, that nite I really worry and scare till I can't sleep. I was thinking, me myself always love being single life. I mean I din even plan to married or anything else. I'm age 20 and coming 21 soon. Means, I'm growing and means I'm growing older. I was thinking, what happen when I'm at my age of a granny? What happen when I'm gone in this world, who will look after them? As I might not have children or anything. What happen to my girl, Shinku? I was so afraid, if when i'm dead, will some of my relative sell her off to dunno where and she might become not her own. Or may be she might being destroy and live in a very unhappy world. What to do? Till than, one day I was chatting with my fren about this topic, for her plan she plan that her children will also be the same like her. A doll lover. I was happy to hear that but for me I'm might not same. So suddenly I think, if I die, I will ask for my last wish for my relative or what, to burn all my toys and my dolls or burry together with me. I know this ia very selfish way, but I also know one thing. Every of my doll or toys, they accept me as I'm the one who give them this soul, eben though I'm not the creator but I'm a raiser.

The leave with me so long, means they already living with a small soul in it. I dun want my doll being suffer so I ask for this wish. But I also know it might be so cruel to kill them too. Am i bad? Am I selfish? I really can't seperate with them especially my dear Garfiled who followed me for 16 years till now and Shinku. I loe them both till I think both of them are my family. I dun wan my family being destroy by other ppl hand till the end they might blame why I din bring them along? Will they think that?

I really can't think of anything as human life are short. I dunno when is my turn to go or may be early? do anyone here think this before? This future is not ur doll future what to do or what but about their life after we gone! What's gonna happen to them. Will you stand the pain to see ur dolls in suffer with other ppl? If they lucky enough can get a good owner I will be happy for it. What about not lucky? She might be a spoiled doll. Means, being broken and handle withoug any care or love. They might being abondon and died without a purpose. OMG...my imagination gone too far as I really can't think. So I really wanna hear from members here. Do u think if I make my dolls and my dear Garfield follow me together to the land I've created is a slefish thinking? Will you all think I'm not a good owner or a very selfish person? My Garfield, whenver I'm away from home, I can feel she is sad and unhappy *My Garfield is a female*! So do Shinku whenever I went to college or out without taking her, I will feel she is so sad at home alone. Yeah may be this is my phsychology problem. But, I just can't stop this thinking.

I wish to hear some sharing here about wat u think how u planned for ur kids in future? I mean ur dolls!

 

My husband has instructions to sell my boys when I'm dead. He has to make sure I'm dead, though, and that I have not been simply rendered temporarily senseless by the massive joy brought on by the reading of too many BL manga. XD

 

LOL!!! - when i die, they will all be buried with me...noone can have them mwahahaha!

 

I'm having the same thinking too..XDD

 

Wasn't there a thread like this before? XD

Anyway, I guess my boys will be displayed in my untouched room, like some part of a musuem of ALL my stuff or something XD.

 

I just don't really think about it. I'm bearly 21. I do want kids and a family someday, but who knows what will happen? Same for you. You feel this way now, but who knows what you'll feel in 5 years? 10 years? 20 years? As long as we're not sick or get in an accident, we're both still "babies" in this world and have a long life ahead of us!

I guess for me, I just try and live my life and do the things that make me happy as much as possible. I don't know what will make me happy tomorrow, but I do know what makes me happy today. And I feel that's all that's really worth thinking about.

As for the dolls, I'm not too worried what will happen to them after I die if I even still have them. I'd probably give them to my kids (if I have them) or a friend's kids or someone I know who would enjoy them.

I haven't given it that much thought.

If I die young, I want one of my friends to have Soye. But to be honest, I don't know yet what I'd do with her if I lived to the old age of 80 or something. Maybe donate her to a museum.

 

I'm definately having kids. And if one of my girls loves dolls, when I die, my dolls will be passed on to her... Or if I'm really old, I would pass it on to my grandchildren. But I'll be sure they are doll lovers and would take care of them. n_n

 

Hmm..I don't know. I really should be thinking about it though.
I think I'll have to leave a note or something, somewhere, saying that Mo should be properly displayed with my favorite childhood doll.
........
But yes, I really should plan what will become of my Mo.

 

My Nono and Elizabeth are to be buried with me. The others are to be sold on ebay for as much as possible to pay for any expenses I may leave behaind.

 

I'm 20, I'm not sure about having a family at this point, but I worry that if I have kids it would be awkard. I wouldn't want little kids playing with them, but the kids would want to. I worry having kids will change my relationship and feelings towards my dolls.

Also I will feel bad growing up while my dolls remained locked in youth. It will totally change how I view them.

I don't know what to do with them when I die. When I die (Hopefully like in 60years, not tommorrow or something) who knows if anyone will even know what ABJD are, so you may not be able to sell them. I don't even know what to do with myself when I die!
