Yep I think so, I kept seeing things I liked while not taking the time to enjoy what I already had.

agh darn! I love those blueberries! But it's better for you if you get someone who actually WANTS the WHOLE doll anyway.

I've done the same thing, buying too many at once, but I know that I'm going to get to mine sooner or later. Partly I kind of stockpiled all at once because of the fear of not being able to find what I want later, so feel like I have to buy NOW while I can sometimes lol.

I mean a lot of things I really would have liked were long past sold out before I ever started looking at bjds.

I'm in the "I want to buy everything now before it's gone" mode myself. But I'm torn between that and my miserly side saying "you can't go below this mark in your savings or you're doomed!" XD And I'm sitting on the threshold until I get paid at the end of the month. ><

I'm a hoarder so the thought of getting rid of any of my stuff makes me cringe. XD Takes me ages to get rid of clothes even if I haven't worn them in years. Mostly because I haven't grown in years and nearly everything I have still fits. >< But I can totally understand the need for downsizing. *Looks at the mass of stuff in her room* Yeah..

Good luck with selling your dolls. Certainly if having so many stresses you out it is a good thing to whittle it down. I have a long wishlist but I'm trying to refrain from buying anything more til my first bjd gets here so I can see how I like her and if I will really want to get more or not.

This is actually why I'm done buying dolls. I get the appeal of downsizing, it's just not something I could do myself but it's time to focus on clothes/accessories for the lovely crew I have at home. Finish blushing, adjust faceups, and make sure everyone has a variety of clothes they like. After that happens I have no idea what comes next but I've got plenty to work on.

If only I had money I totally would have went for Anne. She's such a sweet looking girl. Angell Studio Leira is also a very beautiful girl. ^^ If only I had money....

Back to topic - I don't think I could survive with just one girl. I actually keep trying to not buy anymore because Sayuri still needs some new parts. But there are just so many dolls that I want. Even if sometimes I don't pay attention to them all, I can' see myself selling all of them. Never. >.<

I don't think I posted this here yet, but... deciding that I'd only keep Carly (on the MNF body), immediately brought back the fun and I gave her a mani and pedi. Something I'd wanted to to for ages but I always thought 'Ugh I'll have to do all six of them then', so in the end I didn't do any...

Just looking at her painted nails makes me happy now. I'm so gonna enjoy her :)
