When I was ten, I convinced myself (for fun) that there were creatures called Shmozzits living in my closet!

These imaginary shmozzits I made up were male and female and they lived in a nest that was on one of my closet shelves. They had a tapir's head, a fish's tail, a bat's wings and soft fur on their body. If you weren't careful, they'd eat your clothing!

I had a imaginary BOY-friend actually. he was Legolas (big suprise huh?) and he'd always sleep beside me or cuddle me after a cry. he'd whisper to me in Elvish and walk beside me so I wasn't alone. He's still around, but he keeps me from making wrong descisions

When I was little, my older brother had an imaginary friend named Banjo. He would go on adventures with im, and then come and tell me about them. I felt bad because no imaginary friends liked me enough to be mine, so I started pretending to have an imaginary friend just to impress him.

wjen i was six, i had barbie as my imaginary friend. We played on the swingset together, went swimming together, talked about boys, you name it. We were the best of friends. For some reason, i stopped believing in barbie when we moved to texas when i was eight. I'm now 13 and going to start high school next year, and still play with imaginary friends when i'm home alone or when i cant sleep at night. Weird, right?

Barbie's BFF!!!

I had an imaginary friend, and he went everywhere with me, and I talked to him every second i was awake. One day, I got in a huge fight with him, flushed him down the toilet, and that was the end. I could never replace him even if I tried, and i was mad at myself for flushing him.
I never replaced him because it was too hard, but I guess I eventually grew out of trying to find somebody else.

I had two imaginary friends and a guardian angel. The friends were twins, a girl and a boy, named Lonnie and Donnie. They were personified by two child sized mannequins in a Woolworth's store. I would visit them frequently talking very animatedly and hugging them whenever I got the chance. The guardian angel was their cousin - her name was Bonnie. When I turned 10 I decided I was too old for imaginary friends and such and took all three out to the back porch and said goodbye once and for all. Then Woolworth's closed and the mannequins disappeared as well.

My imaginary friend when I was young was, believe it or not... my ten speed.... I named my ten-speed.... Clyde.. the one hump. I imagined it as a camel with one hump (the seat). I had clyde from about the time I was ten until he finally got stolen. In memory of Clyde - the one hump. 1974 - 1989

There were these old trees in the playground at my school and in kindy I thought there were mice living in them, and the knotholes were doors. Then i changed schools, and there weren't any trees, so i believed they ran around in the walls and I used to talk to them through a missing brick.

until the age of about 4 years, i believed that little peope (elves) lived at the bottom of my bed. Only i could see them, and they only came out after dark. They had a world world on the bottom of my bed, with farms and schools and houses. They had special hats wich allowed them to fly up to me. some world tiggle my toes and feet while they worked on the farm. Others would sit on my knee and tell me things about every thing. they were always friends and i was never scared.

I always had an imaginary friend and dog ever since i was 7 years old, and I acted to them as if they were real. And i always thought that they WERE real. So i always sat with them and watched t.v in exact position = Dog, me, imaginary friend. I was always inbetween them. Them my sis would come along and sit on my dog or my friend! SO i would scream and cry and cry and my sister would laugh and laugh.

I used to believe I had a million imaginary friends, all about the size of those hobbit action figures from LOTR, and they all worked at Macs convienience store. So every time we went for a drive and passed the convienince store, I'd have to unroll the window, say goodbye to all of them (by name) and let them go to work. I would be imaginary-friendless until we passed the convieniance store again. . .unfortunatly one day we took a different route home, and I never saw sally, susie, jimmy, bobby, or any of the others again. I was heartbroken.

When I was little, I had a BUNCH of imaginary friends. Depending on what I was in to at the time--maybe Care Bears, or characters from a book I just read--they all took the form of whatever it was I liked. I talked to them and asked their opinions on everything, and I talked back as them, too. But the best thing, I think, was when I had to go to bed. Every one of them had to wish the others good-night. So first I'd say good-night, and they would say good-night back. Then the next member of the brigade would go, and say good-night to everyone else. And the next, and the next... and I felt terrible the ext morning if I forgot anybody.

As a three or four year old only child with no friends nearby to talk to, I often spent my time telling my parents about Mr. Ghost. All I can remember about him is that he lived in the snow (I think this was to get them to take me to the snow), and that he ate people. I think I remember telling my dad that he used the snow to whipe the blood off his face. And somehow, I'd become friends with him when he took a vacation from the snow.

A few years later, I decided that I had an imaginary unicorn named Melina. She was the unicorn goddess, and she kept me entertained. I think I managed to convince one or two people that marshmellows were made of unicorns, so they should stop eating them. I'm a fairly normal teenager, it turns out.

I used to think everyone in the world had an imaginary friend that nobody else could see, because when ever I was in the car and saw people driving past talking (probably singing a song or something), they'd be talking to their imaginary friend!

I had an imaginary friend called Frank.He was a pink flying unicorn even though I wasn`t into that kinda stuff.He looked really girly but if anyone said that he would REALLY beat them up.I used to let him in my bed at night,because I was afraid of the dark and he made me feel safe.We don`t talk too much anymore,(we do talk though)but I know he`s still there...

Ellie

untill i was 5, i had an imaginary friend. her name was Samantha. my mom would always set a spot for her at the table, but she never ate her imaginary food. after my sister was born, Samantha "told" me that she had to leave because she didnt like my new sister. i hated my sister for a very long time because she drove away my best friend (we lived in a community with alot of old people who never had any children visit, so i didnt have many friends.)
