most tulpas turn out as very slight variations of the original person
why would you even bother, you're both the same depressed anime-picture person who is also slightly quirky
i think it's probably good for you if you want a friend
but there's many other possible frens out there in the world
so it's sad
in some cases it could be unintentional, at one point about a year ago I think I came close to accidentally creating a tulpa out of sheer loneliness
