Guest Anonymous November 12, 2012 Share November 12, 2012 Let's compare tulpas to real life friends: Tulpas: * Can potentially be perfect for you * Almost never leave your side * Can have all different types of relationships * Potentially immortal until your death (unless you believe otherwise) * Can help you become more enlightened Real life: * No development time aside from growth * Can help you in life via their connections Those are the pros I came up with. What are your cons? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koji November 12, 2012 Share November 12, 2012 Tulpa: You will be made for each other, after all, you made him/her Any secrets shared with them will not be spread to general public Generally perfect IRL Friends: Dickheads most of the time No more needs to be said on the matter. http://tulpa.info/forums/Thread-Koji-and-Catelyn-Of-Deserts-and-Snowmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goldsmith November 12, 2012 Share November 12, 2012 They are two entirely different kinds of relationships. One is an internal relationship. It can experience and understand you first hand from a first hand perspective. The other is an external relationship. They can never truly understand or experience you, going by second and third hand accounts. However, external relationships are important and necessary, and fulfilling in ways internal relationships can never be.

moondragon November 12, 2012 Share November 12, 2012 It really depends on what kind of people your friends turn out to be. Some of them are worth the stress you sometimes get from relationships with humans..And,with some so called real friends, well you are better off hanging out with your tulpas..
