How real is your tulpa to you?

[Bin]

Scarlet definitely feels real to me. I'm a very practical person so I never have "doubt" about her existence or condition, I can easily rationalize things that would cause me to doubt her existence.

I'm not totally sure how I feel about alien responses. When she does stuff it's definitely not me, and can surprise me, but it's actually kinda natural too. I guess it's a bit like two people looking at each other though a frame and thinking it's a mirror, we both share an unconscious mind so we're very alike.

Like Nyx, I easily forget her nature, she just feels likes a real person to me. Even in the real world, where she's only half imposed, I often forget who I'm talking to. She does surprise me, constantly gives me good ideas I wouldn't have thought of, and I really appreciate it.

The only real issues are that she's a little too perfect. She's my ideal person and does stuff that real people wouldn't, so, that's sometimes an issue. I think she's naturally trying to fix that on her own; unfortunately, so far all that's translated to is nagging at me which I've told her to stop doing. Eventually she'll find her niche that'll give her the proper "faults" to seem more real while not irritating me, but we're still on that journey.

I go for very, pretty real while not that real in a classic way.

 

Some days i can hardly visualise or hear her and she isn't a big talker yet, but thats getting better fast right now. It's just like she made a progress jump yesterday. However she surely has her own mind. I can feel her phyisical touch pretty often, even when i don't expect anything because i'm busy with something else. She has some initiave ways herself, when she really wants something. Her voice doesn't feels really alien yet, but the "splitsecond precognition" is gone. Her possession skills vary, but are solid in the used context.

Funny you should ask that. Just last night I actually told Reisen that she'd changed my perception of reality - that she was realer than any logic that would say she wasn't. So there you go. I value my tulpas over logic itself, their existence is more important to me than being grounded in "true" reality.

 

To really answer your question, I would say that they generally feel real, although sometimes when I'm trying to talk to them if it's been a while I imagine them saying things they aren't, because they're out of practice with speaking and me hearing. So I would rate them on that scale of 1 to 10 differently. But my tulpas are a 10 to me. I can feel Reisen even when she can't talk and I can't see her. I can feel her intent even when I imagine what she's saying wrong. And I haven't doubted their separateness from me, or anything they've said, in years.

 

My tulpas are realer than reality.

I'm sure you know that i may be an on and off again mancer be it foxes to pokemon but i truly believe in snow.

 

it's hard for me to explain how i believe in them but all i know is either snow is the dominant entity in my mind space who loves me for me or she made lucky as a puppet entity to bemuse me since i have Asperger and like i said she really loves me and assumes these forms to make me happy. Regardless I love snow for that main reason and i cannot picture a day where i don't think about my little foxie.
