A lonely husband has abandoned his wife in favor of a more emotionally ensured companion always being around when the lights gets turned off.
The married couple of 38 years old changed their sleeping habits when their second child was born which led to each of them sleeping in separate rooms with the wife sleeping in a room with the children and the father sleeping in a room for himself. The loneliness built slowly built up inside the father which led to the eventual decision to buy a full size dakimakura to keep him company late into the night.
Feeling the competition the wife suggested she would find alternative ways for her to stay with him till morning, but it seems the dakimakura has managed to get in between their relationship threatening the position of the wife.
We slept together when first married, but after my second child we slept in different rooms. I slept with the children.
When we need to, I sneak into my husband’s room and go back to the children’s bed when we’re done.
My husband was saying “If we’re not together until morning it’s lonely,” but then a year ago he bought a full-sized dakimakura.
He really got into it, and said “If I have this I sleep like a baby!”
However, it started to get a bit manky, but when I suggested he buy a new one he just told me “I like the deeply ingrained odour it has now.”
His body odour isn’t bad, but I really don’t like the intense odour of the dakimakura when I sneak in.
So I came up with a compromise plan.
“I’ll put the children to bed, then sleep in this room with you” I suggested.
“Why?”
“You got the dakimakura because you were lonely when I didn’t sleep with you until the morning, right?”
“Well, that was then.”
“That was then? What are you on about? Anyway, just get rid of that dakimakura, OK?”
“That would have been OK back then, but not now. I prefer to sleep with the dakimakura. With you until morning? No thanks!”
So I lost to the dakimakura…
The sad end of this story is that he lost the dakimakura at the end. And as usual the always oh so cheery members of the Internet rebellious group 2ch isn’t giving away cheap sympathy to the father.
“Sounds about right.”
“I bet the dakimakura was printed with a character…”
“Because old hags stink…”
“After two kids she’s probably none to appealing to sleep with.”
“At 38 pretty people are still pretty… it was the wife’s mistake to refuse to sleep with him in the first place anyway. Serves her right.”
“It’s probably made up in any case!”
“Just some reporter’s delusion…”
“Why must he sleep with some old woman anyway? After he gets home from work he doesn’t need to be tortured any more.”
“Advantages of dakimakura:
Light.
No arms.
No snoring.
If they get in the way you can throw them out of bed with no complaints.”
“You went for 2D but still chose a bitch…”
