Indifferent most of the time...but my bosses 12 yr old daughter has been over a lot in the past year. She once said to me  - you are old. why do you like comics, cartoons and toys?  -_-

That's when you look at her with horror in your eyes and say, "Never lose your youth." Hahaha

My partner is very supportive of my various collections and owns a couple of ponies and dolls himself! He doesn't own as much as I do, but he's overall very supportive <3

He's extra supportive if they're seaponies or mermaids though, he loves mermaids and fish.

I dion't have an SO, but do have a regular visitor. She's seen my collection & likes it, thinking it should be on show... Aye but not everybody likes multi-coloured animal toys...

I don't have a SO, but I do have parents. My dad doesn't really say anything about my herd, but my stepmom likes both my ponies and my Care Bears. She gets excited whenever I receive pony mail, and she's even contributed to my CB collection. She has her own collection of Barbie dolls, so she understands it.

That's awesome you have a good relationship with your stepmom! I'm a stepmom, and I've definitely bonded with my stepkids over collections. They love my pony collection and grew up playing with them. I started my stepdaughter's American Girl collection, and I still add to it sometimes when I see something for her doll for sale, even though she's in her 20's now. She loves it, and loves going through my AG stuff with me too.

I had a somewhat cruel experience about 10 years ago. I was a teenager, I must have been 16, and I was dating this guy that attended the same school as me. At the time, Facebook was used a lot for chatting as well as sms texting and we often spoke there. one day on facebook I put "like" on the official page of MLP and Barbie and he saw it. I noticed the next day that he had created a post full of insults and humiliations such as: "You're a loser, a poor child, you will die with no one next to you ..." and all such things (even more offensive, but I don't think to be able to write them, I would never want to be banned from the forum). Sometimes people can be very bad. needless to say, I never wanted to deal with him and guys like him again.
Now I am single but I have friends who are aware of the fact that I am a MLP collector, they do not judge me, on the contrary they help me in the search for vintage toys.

I've been with my SO 21 years in March. He supports me to the fullest. I suffer from PTSD & other things. He knows that they help me through tough times. I'm so glad to have him in my life.

@Ponyrama_95 I'm sorry you had to go through that. :hug: The guy sounds like a total jerk. Glad you have friends that understand, hopefully, one day you'll meet a soulmate. Don't give up, one is out there. :rainbow:

That guy sounds like he had some real problems beyond the scope of a normal human being. He did that because you 'liked' a page on social media? Lots of teenagers liked My Little Pony 10 years ago. I'd be happy to wash my hands of him if he was that psychotic. Sorry that happened to you. :hug:

My partner has always considered the Ponies another fun interest of mine!
He is a collector himself, mostly Warhammer 40k figures. He was joking about how expensive they were and that "I don't want to know how much he's spending" I reassured him I understand completely, showing some of the rarest in my collection!  :lol:
I love how we are both equally passionate about our fun little hobbies !

In the past I have been pretty open about my collecting on non-Pony forums. I remember encountering one fellow who thought my collection was great, & he collected Transformers!!!
