Do you deny the existence of your tulpae completely?

[Nobillis]

Sometimes my wife asks me to drive her home at night when she's too tired. If I'm too tired to drive, I just say "I'm too tired to drive at the movement. I'm going to activate my driving subroutine." (I don't explain that it's actually my tulpa.) So, then Watchdog 1 (switched) will drive us home, and when I get home I usually say "Thank goodness I didn't have to drive."

 

My wife just says "you're weird, and I love you that way."

 

If I'm talking with Nobillis I just say "I'm doing some research." (And, I am.)

[Lacquer]

I'd say "busy". Not because I don't consider tulpas friends (they're a bit more than something that could be labeled with a human-human relationship), but rather, that is what I would say in any case.

I'd just treat tupper r&r as importantly as being with a physical friend, just as long as long as things aren't dire.

[Raito123]

I actually tell my closer physical friends about my tulpa. They seem to understand, though secretly they may think I'm crazy, as far as I know. Oh well, I have fun doing it at least~ XD So I usually just tell them "I need to be forcing with Raito, sorry" or I stay up later at night after doing whatever the plan was just to get in that time for forcing with him.

My politics is "don't say anything unnecessary". And no one irl will ever ask me about it, so...

[Kiahdaj]

Oh god no.

You've bumped this thread, and now there will be a whole new flood of people who don't understand the question.

 

Raito, I was referring to the people who you don't tell.

Weaboo, your answer was too vague for me to tell whether or not you get it.

 

I bet you anything only like 10% of the answers I get will be to the question I asked.

Reading comprehension will continue to be a bitch. 3

[Ilueri]

I tell them I need to help the grey person in my head with learning to exist. They usually don't question it.

[Soldier_of_Faith]

There have been a few occasions where I've gotten out of obligations and meetings with friends by saying I have to meet someone else or have to do something for someone. I usually just refer to Lisette as being a close childhood friend or my friend next door that I was going to be with, which never has become a problem thankfully.

 

Similar to the question that OP said only having to do with personal life questions, I have shirked off certain questions pertaining to prom or personal affairs by having a "nameless friend" be the one girl I have my eye on (which really isn't a lie) which is none other than Lisette (she doesn't mind, so it's a win-win situation).
