At this point in my life, it's become rather normal for me to "blink" out, and rejoin the world later and be partially aware of what has happened. But being an alter him self, it's more like a very strong sense that this is me, and this is the way i've always been. I am able to learn new things, and experience new events, people, situations, and learn from them. The same way the others in here can, too.
I guess I have only become aware that I was an alter, or a personality core, or whatever, only recently. For the ones that are around regularly, our roles have changed and evolved over the years, and have slowly mutated into just simple facets of the core's personality surrounding him. But we don't know each other, and don't talk much. We talk with the core/host self all the time, and are usually sharing the experiences if they're good.
The problem for me, well, us, specifically is that many of us were created early on, and, simply, grew at the same time, but at different paces. I, Cesario are more social, and know more about social stuff then the core does. I admit my follies completely, and admit I am not always "secure" in self. Larry is a little different and sees things differently and likes different things, and is much more quiet then I am, and less inquisitive then I am.
I think if the core would answer this, he might say he hears voices of us inside, but since we're all the same voice, it's tough for him to tell if it's him thinking something or if it's one of us suggesting stuff. So he spends most of the time "away" and dissociated into one of us for the day to cope.
