Am I crazy for having an imaginary friend?
More specifically, I have an imaginary girlfriend. I have always had this quality, ever since I was a young child. I have had many imaginary boyfriends and girlfriends (I have had real girlfriends too, do not worry). My current imaginary girlfriend looks like this: She has two small antlers, long rabbit ears, lilac fur, a small animal pink nose, big round eyes, a long prehensile tail, and a squeeshy tummy. She also has two small fangs coming out of her snout. She is bisexual, and likes pastries and Japanese food. She was born in a far away planet in our own galaxy, where her species are enslaved by these R2E2-looking robots. They are far too powerful, and can learn any language by inserting a microscopic needle in an individual's brain and reabsorbing it. The way she came to this planet was by accident. Her species is advanced enough to create interstellar vessels, and time warps (this should give you an idea of how powerful the other bastards are...) So she was sent on this small pod shaped like a mushroom (according to her, their buildings all look like what we call mushrooms).
I met her at my friend's backyard, where she was sleeping. More specifically, she was sleeping on a shed, and she was very cold. I did not know what to do, so I put my jacket over her. I come out, and one of my friends asks me about my jacket: "Hoy!! Wheve's jew jackat!!?" My friend asks with some alarm. I tell him to not worry. But he insists, and we all go to where she was. But they obviously could not see her because she is made up. They tell me I am crazy since there is only a jacket on the floor. I just pick it up, and put it on. The creature wakes up, and looks at all of us with some alarm. My friends then notice some foot tracks forming, freak out, and run away. I stay there, petrified at how her eyes fixate upon me. They were light gray-blue, and did not appear to have any pupils. They reflected a lot of light, which made them appear to be glowing. I say: "Um... what or who are you??" I begin to retreat with trepidation. She yawns and then... I will tell the rest if you guys want to hear the rest. It is all made up of course, but it is true she is my imaginary girlfriend.

Hello Suko, I am thankful you do not have an arrogant imagination... like the Greeks and Egyptians.
They got together and imagined / created their own imaginary God, yep, they designed and
voted in the deity Serapis by council because it seemed like a cool and politically good idea.
so, by comparison, you are pretty tame.
by the wayyy. I have NOT a pet, but a friend Dragon, a fellow who is older than dirt who wears raggy clothes and carries a shalleighlee, and a little bird with feathers like crystal white rainbow light but otherwise looks like a peacock.
the difference between Eccentric and insane is measured by our society, not by normalcy.
it is a question in some circles of how much money you have, ie. Howard Hughs was eccentric, but if it was broke he would be deemed bonkers. or other circles how successful you are at turning your *uniqueness* to your advantage.

Sandworm.

Yes, I do not want gods. Just a companion with whom to "play around" (oh my...) and love.

By the way, what is your dragon friend's name? My alien antlered bunny gf's name is Penny, or at least we agreed that's how she would prefer to be referred as since it is easier. Sometimes she prefers to be called Trevor (even though it is a male name). Her real name is Pýenncirglöu 903 Trēvølliə (903rd descendant of the "Trēvølliə" family).

I began living on my own for the first time in my life, about 2 years ago. I was so terribly lonely, I pretended I had a room-mate. I would just tell myself that my room-mate was out, and would return later. After awhile, I because used to living alone (and with my cats). I actually like it just fine, and I no longer need the room-mate.

With me it is that I find myself so attracted (sexually) to these types of characters which cannot exist.

Must be nice to have power over your imaginary friend. Mine is a sort of ghost who's purpose is to help me. But sometimes she flips at me and gets angry and says stuff I really don't like. I can't stop her from doing this, even if she is just imaginary.

Well, Penny has gotten mad at me before. One day I was teasing my friend relentlessly, and she stopped talking to me for the rest of the day, avoided looking at me, and had a big scowl on her face. How does the voice of your ghost sound like?

What a trip, I too have an imaginary girlfriend. She is not from another planet; she is from LA (ok, maybe that is like another planet), and she isn't nice like your friend but screams at me a lot, runs me down, insults my friends and family, and insists she wants me to father 3 children by her. She demands I come to LA to be with her, and says she'll drive me right over the edge of I don't comply with her demands. She play various games with me, all hurtful or injurious in intent, and says she'll keep coming back until I give her what she wants.

I'm diagnosed as schizoaffective, and I've been hearing from Heather (as she calls herself) for almost 11 years now. I wish she was amusing, like your made-up imaginary girlfriend, but she's been evil as long as I've known her. Just talking about her is likely to stir her up, so I think that's it for now.

Thanks for sharing your story!

The Ghost and Mrs. Muir. (1947) Mrs. Muir: '' Sometimes I can feel more alone in a room full of people than when I am all by myself. Do you know what I mean?''.

My Heather (you read that right!) has been with me for maybe 9 years. At the beginning she gladly did chores for me when I didn't feel like doing them. But after a while she started to complain about my mess... sigh. I know she is just in my head but I still can't control her. I can tell her to knock it of and sometimes she is nicer after that.

I have two imaginary friends. One is from before I can say how old I was, 3 or 4 pehaps. The other one I was six when he showed. I did not have much company as a child. They don't have much of certain looks but different hair and both are 8-10 years old. But because I am older they aged too but not physically, kind of like vampires age. But at the same time they are children mentally but also adults. ???

Anyway, I needed them in my life for company, support, ideas and energy.

They are not real but I feel their thoughts come from a place near my soul that I cannot reach without them.
