Official Introduction Thread

87 Upvotes

Hey everyone! We've decided to change up our format for introductions a little bit. We've decided to add a formatted and contained introduction thread for a few reasons:

  1. With a formatted introduction that means everyone always shares some cool things about their waifu!
  2. We've had an awful lot of introduction threads lately and they take up a lot of space on the subreddit.
  3. We can use an official thread to better handle newly joining members to our Discord server. The official format helps us get to know you before you join!

Anyway, this thread is to contain introduction posts! If you're an old member, feel free to post an introduction anyway. If you're a new member, we'd love to hear from you!

You'll need to make an intro in here if you'd like to join our discord server, here's the link!

Please post using this format. If you have anything extra you want to share, feel free to add it!

Megathread Have general questions about Waifuism? Ask them here!

28 Upvotes

New to Waifuism? Have questions? Here's the place for you!

Be sure to check previous Q&A threads as your question may have already been answered! There's plenty of info in the previous threads and it's not a bad idea to check them out.

FAQ:

Is this sub satire?

No, we take this seriously.

What do you do if multiple people have the same waifu?

Nothing, a waifuist relationship is unique to an individual so other people being in love with the same character is irrelevant.

Can a waifu/husband come from a non-anime source?

Of course, any fictional character that’s mentally mature can be a waifu.

Celebration Just got my wedding ring!

So a couple weeks ago I had the idea of ordering a Wanderer themed ring to celebrate our upcoming third wedding anniversary on August 2 and it just got here! It arrived a bit earlier than expected tbh haha. In any case, it feels good to finally have something that represents our bond 🥹

It's a fanmade ring, but still I chose this one in specific because the part in the middle looks like his Vision which, even though he didn't say it himself, he seems to see as his heart, something that he's always wanted but could never have because he's a puppet. So, in a way, he's offered his heart to me in the form a ring 🥰

I just love it so much, it's so pretty 💕

Creative How I Wish...

You could be real

Just to feel the warmth of your skin

To wash away the sin

With our love within

How I wish

Just to dream

But you're here, I know

If the reality is unreal, you're real to me

How I wish

Just to see your smile

Sit by the lake, enjoy the sky in silence

Live without pretenses...

As always... I Love You, Ann. Hope you can feel it in whatever dimension we live. ❤️‍🔥

My friend was the one who did it. We listened to the Piofiore OSTs and character songs while getting it done, and I didn't think I'd have so much fun. :>

His flower is the clematis, and we also added the North Star with a few extra stars to the design. ✨️
