The idea behind what is real and what is not is an interesting concept but one thing that always grounds me and my beliefs is our common experience. For example: if someone else saw what you saw then it must be real. Right?
I would say no. One thing one has to get past in all this is that you have no toehold on reality.
Believe that. None.

Also do you see that fear is an interest to them, and do you also think there are 2 opposing forces involved in this phenomenon we call Alien experiences.

I believe that experiences like Jritzmans are but a fragment of a much greater experience that, sadly, will always remain in the dark.

Apparently only 1 out every 10 UFO observers/experiences reports their account. And as for possible abduction-like encounters or very close encounters those coming forward are even fewer. These people generally shun the media, are the biggest skeptics and most will likely keep it buried within right into the afterlife - although some say there isn't anything beyond physical death and if that's the case maybe we should encourage experiencers to come out with their stories BUT only if we, the ever scrutinizing, arm-chair enthusiasts, support them appropriately.
It takes courage to relate such happenings and my hat tips to the side for you Jritz!

But can all experiences be bad.

Do they communicate with you, give you messages, sometimes in strange ways, for example you may wake up with a word on your mind, not a word you understand, you look on the Internet for the word and find its Latin, or a word used from 500 years ago, or a word in an obscure past language, this then answers an issue, a question that has been on your mind.

If they was aliens then why would they communicate in odd ways, they seem to have more in common with mischievous fairies of folklore than visitors from another planet.

Do you know when you'll be able to continue telling another part of the story? I was a little disappointed because, at the 9th page i was hoping to see at least one more part of the story but i got to page 11 and all i can do now is ask and wait. Thanks

Ok, so if I understand you, these 'beings' are playing with the human tendancy to seek models of reality, and doing so in order to cause despair, obsession, and ruin?

If the dangling carrot is an understanding of a greater reality, one that we cannot perceive without their help, and they really just want us to suffer, isn't that motivation an awful lot like a small child buring ants or putting salt on slugs?

It sounds more like the Archons of Gnosticism when viewed like that.
