My Spouse is a Doll | YDP Classics

Ep.79 | What does it mean to love someone who can’t speak, move, or age? In this deeply intimate and unconventional episode, we revisit episode 35 featuring Xen, a man whose life partner is a hyper-realistic, life-size doll named Yumi. To the outside world, it might seem bizarre, even unsettling — but to Xen, their bond is as real as any traditional relationship.

We explore how their connection began, how he navigates love, companionship, and societal judgment, and what this relationship reveals about loneliness, emotional fulfillment, and the changing definitions of intimacy in a tech-driven world.

Whether you leave this episode moved, puzzled, or rethinking what love looks like, one thing is certain: Xen’s story challenges us to confront our assumptions about connection and what it means to truly feel seen.
