When I'm alone, I pretend that there is somebody else there with me. And yes I do talk to them. I sing to them too. This has been going on since I was in like 4th grade or so. I also pretend to hug them by hugging pillows. I do this every time I'm alone. I even do this when there is someone else in the same house as long as I'm in a different room. Is this normal?

    Why not get a pet instead?

        As long as you know it is only imaginary.

        As long as you dont start thinking this imaginary person is real

    It doesn't sound normal but unless its causing problems in your life it doesn't sounds like its hurting any one.

    I have the same problem. At first I thought it was just an obsession over my crush but I pretend my friends are there too sometimes and stuff.
