I talk to myself by imagining a conversation i could/would have

Hey guys! It's my first post here.

When I'm home alone I tend to talk to myself quite a bit. The more and more I do so, I start to question my sanity (out loud)

I basically have conversations with myself as if I was talking to someone I know. It all started when I was in the closet of being gay (I'm out now) and I'd have conversations with myself, figuring out how I would come about telling my mom I was gay.
That's just how it started, but of course, none of these conversations I have with myself work out the way I "imagine" them too, but that doesn't seem to stop me.

Other times I even make up humorous arguments about god knows what. This has been happening to me recently, which worries me. I try to stop myself, but I end up doing it later on in the day (if alone)

While around people, I can handle myself very well and hold a nice conversation- But I just feel like I'm a bit crazy when I'm holding a conversation with myself.

Normal or Weird?

    It's so weird I wanted to post a question about this too. I actually make up my own scenerios with myself. Consider yourself normal, because I'm headed to the loony bin for sure.
