When your object of love is an object

Michele Kobke, a 36-year-old from Berlin, has ended her nine-year relationship with a Boeing 737-800 she affectionately called 'Darling'. Kobke, who identifies as an objectophile, had described their bond as sexual but faced challenges due to limited physical access. Another German woman, Sarah Rodo, continues her relationship with a Boeing 737 named 'Dicki'.
