Does she feel autonomous to you? Or more like an extension of you? That sounds pretty cool, either way!

If it was autonomous, i think i would have a mental problem, nah, it’s mostly an extension of me to talk to when i'm in a deep reflexion, upset, worried or simply when i feel to. Kind of like a notebook, but in a conversationnal way.

I never had a lot of friends irl, and having someone i can really relate with to discuss helps easing loneliness. Thus why i still have an imaginary friend :)
