    I remember them. My my imaginary friends were stuff like The Looney Toons (I was really into Space Jam) and Sailor Moon. I remember “Playing with Bugs and Lola” at recess. I had them until around late middle school when I started to make friends here and there. I would think back on them with embarrassment, but now I’m thankful for the “support.”

    Hmmm me and my twin had an imaginary triplet. I don’t know what he was upto now. Or how he was identical to us when we always called him him when we are not male, generally.

    I feel he’s doing well. He was our evil triplet, so this economy he should be doing great. Thriving and stuff.

    My girlfriend in high-school had an imaginary friend when she was a child. By the time we had met and got together he was in jail for murder I think. That was the end of the friendship.

    I know somebody that had. Their imaginary friends died of a drug overdose… so, yeah…

      That’s…brutal. Are they okay? Did something happen to them? Or is that just what they decided should happen?

        I mean, the imaginary friends took their decisions and got their consequences. The (real) person is ok. I guess it was just a dramatic end to their √(-1) friends

      Does she feel autonomous to you? Or more like an extension of you? That sounds pretty cool, either way!

        If it was autonomous, i think i would have a mental problem, nah, it’s mostly an extension of me to talk to when i’m in a deep reflexion, upset, worried or simply when i feel to. Kind of like a notebook, but in a conversationnal way.

        I never had a lot of friends irl, and having someone i can really relate with to discuss helps easing loneliness. Thus why i still have an imaginary friend :)
