Slushie July 2, 2012 July 2, 2012 This won't work because you can't write romantic comedy movies about a lover that lives in your brain. Astral project on my face, brother!

mordred July 2, 2012 July 2, 2012 This won't work because you can't write romantic comedy movies about a lover that lives in your brain. You can write whatever you damn well please. Even a religious scifi romcom graphic novel is not out of the question. To answer OP, I would consider your relationship with your tulpa to be much deeper than that of a mere girlfriend- especially if you let them completely into your memories and subconscious. You'll know what I mean if you've had a girlfriend- it's just not as close a relationship as someone that knows literally every single thing that has happened in your life, and that shares a space in your head. The only reasons you'd prefer a girlfriend is if you're a well adjusted person, or like clapping dem cheeks nice and hard. sage

Sock July 2, 2012 July 2, 2012 I think trying to shoehorn the relationship between a man/woman and their tulpa into "girlfriend", "boyfriend", "husband", "wife", and all that rot is selling the type of relationship you have with your thought form short. A girlfriend can break up with you, a husband can cheat on you with another dude, a wife can divorce you because she thinks you're boring, but a tulpa? A tulpa is your companion for life.

Lolimancer July 2, 2012 July 2, 2012 I've always imagined the relationship with tulpae as entirely different from those between humans, and (speaking from what i understand of it, don't have any kind of first-hand experience yet) i'd say it really isn't for everyone. I'm beginning to doubt that the average person would even want a relationship like that with anyone, even setting aside the matter of actual physical existence some seem to care so much about. Which is because the two things probably can't be compared on a qualitative level - that is, replacing a girlfriend with a tulpa would be like replacing pizza with nihilism or something like that (hope the comparison sounds nonsensical enough, feel free to experiment with it in case). Hell, i don't think i ever wanted a girlfriend in the sense that a normal person would intend a girlfriend to be, personally - and as for friends i'd say they only go so far in comparison to the level of understandment and support a tulpa would be able to show (if that's what you'd want a friend to do that is). Again, i wouldn't ever demand a friend to be something like a tulpa, or vice versa, it'd just feel wrong i think.

glitchthe3rd July 3, 2012 July 3, 2012 1. Some members of the community are in relationships with real humans 2. In my case, I've pretty much given up on ever passing my genes along, so I aim to be remembered by future generations through my work, rather than genetic offspring. Having a tulpa girlfriend is one way that I can cope with the fact that I've got pretty much zero odds of getting laid. 3. If everyone adopted my mentality, the human race would die off in the next century or so.
