Not that I remember.

Did you have an imaginary friend when you were younger?Yes or no?

And I've never known anyone who did. Until then, I consider the idea to be fiction.
No offence intended.

No. I told my mother it was the other bella when I was naughty and said she should discipline her. She laughed and we had a long conversation about naughty bella.

When I was very young I had a couple imaginary animals I considered friends

 

[Lost4words]

When i was very young i truly believed i did have one. He used to follow me everywhere!! Always by my side. He would always copy my every move.

When i was 30 years old, i realised it was actually my shadow!

Definitely sounds like you as a kid, Bella.

My sister had one, she called gmp-gmp. She would blame things on gmp-gmp. One time she told Mommy that gmp-gmp did it, and Mommy had had enough, so she told her that gmp-gmp wasn't welcome anymore, and my sister had to tell her so. That was the end of it.

Oh boy... Right now, I have the chills running down my spine, because this thread title brought back a flood of memories from my early childhood.

I remember, vividly, after coming to Jesus at age 5, without my parents even knowing, I'd become aware of this presence in my mind, that would comfort, teach and console me. We'd have these long conversations, regarding obedience to my parents, honesty, compassion and a whole lot of stuff, which looking back, lines up perfectly with Biblical truth - even practical teaching on how to chase away demons. He always treated me with such warmth and love, unlike any person I have ever known. Somehow, all this has been buried for so long. Until now. This was a spiritual entity. And not just any spiritual entity, but indeed the Holy Spirit. There's no way that my imagination could have come up with such pure Biblical truth all by myself, especially never having seen a Bible until much later. I always used to have a very accurate sense of what to share with my parents and what not to. I used to be able to predict precisely how people would respond to anything I was about to say, and that guided me through into my teens, when it stopped somehow. Probably when my parents rebuked me for having this invisible friend. He was my dearest friend of all. Looking back, my parents would have wrecked my faith completely if I was to tell them of all these encounters - rest their souls. What an awesome God we serve...

His name was Bing Bong. Together we made a rocket out of a toy wagon and two brooms. It ran on song-power. (with apologies to Pete Docter.)

 

[sunshineforJesus]

Yeah I had several but it was short lived.

 

[Llleopard]

Yep. I had an imaginary friend called Oscar at primary school age. I was a very anxious kid, so if I got my maths or spelling wrong it was okay because Oscar had done it, not me. My kids had a shared one called Henry Blutz who they pushed on the swing, went picnicking with etc.

Apparently I did at the apartment we lived in but when we moved I couldnt see her anymore I guess because I never mentioned her again.
