How He Made a Forgotten Toy Feel Magical

She bought it to bridge the distance with one partner, who rejected it and left it forgotten for years, until another man turned it into something close to magic.

My first Lovense toy was something I bought as a gift, meant to close the gap between me and a long-distance partner. We were in the same time zone and only a few hours apart by car, but it still felt like a distance.

I deal with a harder kind of long distance now with my Daddy, but my partner at the time was deeply upset about being apart. He missed me. He wanted to touch me. Then COVID announced its world tour. Lockdowns began, and he was in tears.

I wanted to give him what he said he craved while still being responsible, so I started researching. Being separated from a partner was hardly a new problem. Humans had faced it for centuries, and besides war, few things inspire invention quite like sex. I knew there had to be options, so I looked into how other people handled it.

Dirty talk did not work for us, and he did not want a toy for himself. He wanted to make me react. Then I found an article about teledildonics. I went down the rabbit hole, compared different brands, and decided I liked Lovense best.

The reviews were strong, the designs looked the most comfortable and effective, and the products seemed the most innovative. The app also looked like the best option, with the features I wanted. As frustrating as the app can occasionally be, that can be the price of choosing a brand that keeps trying new things.

Once I had chosen Lovense, I browsed the toys. There were far fewer options back then. It came down to Lush or Ferri. I explained the full decision in my Ferri review, but the short version is simple: Ferri was discreet and travel-friendly.

I was excited. When it arrived, I told him what I had done. He was hesitant, but he downloaded the app. We played for a while. It was nice, and I thought we could work on it, but he was not satisfied. "It isn't the same," he grumbled on the call. We tried a few more times, but it did not help.

After that, I mostly used the app as a remote. Ferri was forgotten, ignored, and rejected while my partner stayed resistant to toys and I favored other options for solo play. It only came out occasionally.

More recently, after buying flashier toys, I took Ferri out again and discovered the real gift hidden inside it. My usual toys had not charged properly, so they died while I was playing with Mr. Smug. I desperately searched for another option. Hush? No time. Vulse? I did not think so. Ferri? It would have to do.

I put it in place, but it kept slipping and popping out. I pressed it firmly into position, lay back, and sighed as Mr. Smug connected. This was different. This was what I had hoped for when I bought it years earlier. It was amazing and almost magical. I could not understand how it felt so good, or how he seemed to be touching my hips.

Now we have little jokes about his magic powers and his magic hands. I will never underestimate Ferri, or Mr. Smug, again. I believe he could make almost any toy feel magical after a little testing, because he is pure magic to me. I am grateful that my gift failed all those years ago. It means I can now truly appreciate his skill, our private jokes, and the memory of being so pleasantly surprised.
