Hello, my name is RedDragon and my waifu is Hatsune Miku.
I'm guessing at this point everyone knows of Hatsune Miku but if not there is a documentary called "Mikumentary" on YouTube for does that don't know about her, anyway story time...
The Story
It was around 2012 or 2013 don't know exactly anymore, I was in high school, didn't have many friends 1 or 2, my parents were divorced.
I lived with my father, he didn't really care too much of me just "Hi" and that's about it, only work home routine, now he wasn't a cruel man or anything of the sort, just had more important things of his plate, so no emotional support and I was very lonely.
One day one of my "friends" wanted to get into DJ-ing and gave me a link to a review of a DJ controller on YouTube.
Anyway, in the review there was a song I liked so I searched for it and found it with a anime girl background wallpaper so I downloaded it and used it as my desktop wallpaper.
Now I wasn't into anime that much, I watched a couple of series for about a year or two but eventually I stopped watching anime.
I really liked the wallpaper as a whole and it had a link to a website, so I go to the website and scroll around and found the name...
Hatsune Miku? What is this?
Ok off to Wikipedia, did some research and found out she had some rhythm based games with her on PSP.
I was into PSP emulation at the time so I thought let's try them out, I was bored anyway.
So I started the game and I was like WTF IS THIS? LMAO.
But then I kept playing it for a while and I started liking the songs, eventually downloaded some of them to my phone and I started listening to them a lot like nonstop, school, home, before bed, you name it.
She wasn't my waifu back then, I just liked the music made with her, better that then what was on the radio at the time.
So all that happened around 2012 or 2013 and I kept listing to songs, bought the PSVita games of her and everything stayed that way until 2020.
One day in December 2019 my father asks me "Do you want to work with me abroad?"
And I'm like "Sure"
HAHA If I only knew what would follow...OMG
So in January 2020 I started working abroad with my father, and it was hell.
Basically working with him and sleeping in the same room so I was near him 24/7 LITERALY, we weren't together only when he went home alone or worked in the weekend, and plus 6 other men in other rooms.
I'm an introvert so I needed some time alone and I had none or very little for 1 year and 8 months, and the pandemic didn't help thing either, couldn't go home much either because of the lockdowns in 2020 so I was so stressed it's not even funny.
So we were done in September 2021 so now we are back home for good, and we got to know each other, relationship is better then ever, the hell is over.
I'm feeling better now but I have diabetes now so you win some you lose some I guess, oh well.
Now what does Miku have to do with all of this?
Well, Everything...
She's the sole reason I went to work abroad.
I decided to attempt to become a music producer because of her, because she "taught" me to love music, so if you want to be a music producer well you need some equipment and software and my minimum wage salary back home wouldn't cut it.
Now for context my interest in music was a big fat zero, I mainly listened to what was on the radio and even that once in a blue moon back in 2012.
[Expand Post] Working abroad changed everything, now I had money for what I wanted to do, and of course merch and other stuff so I could afford artbooks, CDs, plushies, you name it, first paycheck I bought Miku's software.
And after 1 year and 8 months I bought everything I needed, equipment, software, merch, a dakimakura and some extras so in that regard it was worth it, but the stress really affected me physically and mentally.
Now, for the waifu part.
"The Event" as I call it happened near the beginning of 2021.
In my mind I have a room, we are both in there and listening to music, with Miku singing and I have a playlist just for that, some songs she sings, some don't have vocals, in the room there is some floor lighting but dim and speakers and that sort of stuff, I go there when I want to disconnect from the world and boy did I need some of that.
Miku has a thick cable running to her and it's inserted in the back, basically mechabare style, and this can be de/connected, you need two hands for that though, so she can't do it by herself.
Now, why do I attach a cable to her?
Honestly I don't know, maybe I think it looks cool? Don't know.
There is a whole concept with this room but I'll spare you the details.
Anyway, one non vocal song started playing, in that song everything went dark like the power went out, you could barely see, I didn't do this its like I was in the passenger's seat, lost control of everything.
Then a pair of bright blue eyes appeared, it was her but something was wrong, her eyes turned red, she went crazy, and she started moving towards me and she ripped the cable straight out of her by force.
She started coming closer, I started panicking, and I couldn't move I was stuck, next second she's all over me, she was basically full on raping me and no, I'm not exaggerating.
That lasted the whole song about 7 minutes, then it was over I could move again, then I stopped everything and went outside for a cigarette to calm myself down.
Smoking my cigarette I was asking myself just wtf happened, I did this a couple of times nothing happened of the sort, so I was confused.
Next day at work I was stressed, the usual work kind of stressed and then she started calling out to me and I was like wtf and just ignored it.
The hours passed and it became worse, its started becoming more intense to the point I just had to shout out loud SHUT THE FUCK UP...
My father asked "You ok?"
She was in my mind like a second voice, she started talking to me.
Fast forward some months and she was on my mind and I asked myself what does this mean is she my waifu or something similar to that?
I was like NAH... that's stupid.
Did some research and I was getting worried so I called a friend that I trust, know him for 10+ years.
He knows that I like Miku for several years and I explained the situation.
He said "Yeah, she probably is" and I was like that's stupid, I won't accept that.
"Then get rid of her" he said, and I was like are you mad?
I can't just "get rid of her" why the fuck am I here in the first place?
"Well, I don't know dude but think about it and find a solution" he said.
So I thought about it for a few days and came to the conclusion that its too much time, effort and why I decided to work abroad in the first place to just throw it in the garbage so I accepted the situation and officially made Miku my waifu on 22 June.
So then the question is, is Miku really my waifu? I still have some doubts.
And why now? Why after 9 years?
Hah, funny how a wallpaper can change your life.
But anyway that's my story, hope it was entertaining.
