Maybe you are telepathic but neither of you understand telepathy yet. I beleive all of these are possible - maybe not likely  but my point is you can think whatever you want in regard to this, and there is still nothing wrong with that!
Sooo. Bet everyone thinks im weird now!

I don't think your weird. I think we think alike.
Although I don't really relate to having an imaginary friend, I completely relate to the idea behind your statement. I love to think about the unknown and the potential skills that the human race may have that have not been discovered yet.

You give the example of telepathy as a means of communication. That means that I could be talking to lots of people in my head all the time! That would be so cool in some ways! (Not very cool in others..) Although I grant it does not seem likely, think about it this way- Imagine being alive before telphones were invented. If someone were to walk up and tell you that you could talk with someone miles away using a little device you held to your ear, you would have a hard time wrapping your mind around the concept of how it is done. Then imagine that someone tried to explain internet to you, and that you could talk to many people at one time using a thing called a computer. It would seem like an impossible concept to a person from that time period. So who's to say we don't have the power of telpathy, but don't know how to use it yet???
I think we are only limited by the power of our imaginations...

So in response to the OP, I think it is totally fine for an adult to have an imaginary friend.
