Okay, I'll be honest: I'm going to go out on a limb and claim there are other intuitives out there who also got frustrated at these Namby-Pambies that told you the swing was 'unavailable' because Sarah was sitting on it even though no one was there?


Has it ever occured to you that maybe sarah exsisted and that it was only you who couldn't see her?

:D:D:D:D: LOL

She existed... until I bumped into her and she fell in front of that subway train.

... I felt horrible. :(

(at least I did not have to see her grisly end)

Oh poor Sarah.... you lot are MEAN...

I do think telling of the kids for an Imaginary friend is harsh, if the have been creative enough to have one in the first place...

Well, that's true, but I always sought out truth in reality and fiction in fantasy. That's my point: There was always a strict division in my mind, and when people sought to cross the two, I could not tolerate that. It seemed frivolous and stupid to me as a child. Now I see differently. :blush:

too grown up for a child

That's what my family always said.

My head was too grown up, my heart wasn't developed enough, and my body was somewhere in between.

I wish I hadn't wasted my childhood trying to be an adult; now that I'm an adult, I long to be a child.

N types take time to let go of stuff, I think the reason it persisted was that it was a closetted friend, secrete behaviours are more difficult to get out of the habit off.
Yea, I guess you're right. It's funny though, how you can be a friend of your own mind.

I've had several imaginary lovers, but I haven't stooped to the level of imaginary friendship yet. I did once have an imaginary imaginary friend, though. Her name was Sophie, and she didn't even exist for pretend. I only claimed that she did because having an imaginary friend sounded cool.

I've seen this picture before. I like when people do these kinds of things...just like the explanation behind ed, edd, and eddy. The theory was that all of the kids are dead from separate decades living within the same culdesac in a timeless world. This explained why it was always summer, why there were no parents, why eddy could never get the elusive jawbreaker. Nothing was real.

anywayyy...I will run theoretical conversations/scenarios in my head with real/fictitious people. Not sure if that counts as imaginary friends, though. I figure most people do that. Although it gets a bit consuming when I am far off somewhere with these scenarios and drift out of reality.

yeah, I'm only saying that because I'm N.

So, the culdasac was purgatory/hell?

Dude, you just blew my mind.

Not so much imaginary friends but imaginary worlds, adventures or characters. I waited to come here before I started having imaginary friends. ;)

your an INTJ, you probably use more of your mind's capacity

I think the whole NT thing is that you ride the N in order to tap into your subconsious more.... but thats jsut my thinking at the mo
