With your imagination

I am feeling upset and I need someone to talk to besides family members. What should I do?

[Guest]

What are you upset about?

[Aya]

You can talk with me if you want.

Nevermind.

My one- day- old tulpa, Kelsey, wants me to create another tulpa named Tyler to be her boyfriend. I'm not sure I want to do that yet, though, because Kelsey is so young. What should I do?

It's best to wait for at least a 6 months (ideally closer to a year) between adding systemmates before you even consider adding another one, then you should really consider whether you really want a new systemmate and wait a month or two after you first thought about it to see if the desire fades. Adding a new systemmate should not be taken lightly because it is a huge commitment

I can say that starting out with three on day one was a lot of unnecessary drama with respect to time sharing.

The answer that you're going to get from anyone in this community is to wait. Tulpas are people, you shouldn't go about making new ones willy-nilly, let alone for a reason like forcing one into dating another one. You'd be hard pressed to find anyone in this community who thinks that would be a good or ethical idea. If you create a second one, it should be when your first tulpa is older and fully-developed and because you want to bring another person into your life to live and grow alongside, not to fill some gimmick as a "boyfriend" or whatever. I get that you're new here, but most people don't think tulpas should be treated that way or that flippantly.

I wasn't going to force her to date him, she actually wants him and asked me to create him.
