When I was a child, my first imaginary friend was Batman. I walked up to my parents one day when I was about 5 or 6 and said "Mom, Dad...I want you to meet my boyfriend" Then I pointed to "Batman" and said "His name is Batman." My dad actually stuck his hand out and "shook hands" with Batman. Yeah, being the youngest of 5...I guess nothing shocks my parents at this point.
