I have been wondering for a long time now if I am really different or if there are others out there like me.

My primary interactive personality is NOT my core personality. The person who is the adult, interacts with the world and makes all the decisions and lives life on life's terms is not the core.

The core is a child who will never grow up. She is pre-adolescent and well protected from the world. She interacts under very strict circumstances with our nieces and occasionally with other children.

This was decision made a long time ago and it works really well.

But am I the only one out there with this setup? Sometimes I get tired of never being able to talk about it.

I hope someone will have something to say cause I am lousy at letting people know how vulnerable I feel posting something like this.

Thanks for listening.
