Title: Who's the first person you told you were a fur?
Post by: Thompson Foxworth on September 09, 2015, 03:53:16 AM: Did you ever tell anyone about your fursona?

Post by: HollowOfHaze on September 09, 2015, 04:06:47 AM: I was asked if I was a furry, and after a short "Yes" things didn't go much further from there.

Eebeku is the first one to know about it relatively in-depth, and now he's in a Skype group with several other members of TFF, including myself. He's doing just fine.

Post by: Halei-Helai on September 09, 2015, 04:00:32 PM: Nobody has ever asked since I am not the loud and proud sort of furry. I have told a few people, all of which have been fine with it. None of them really care and I don't bother them with details. Mostly it will be already close friends who are talking about furries and then I sneak in all ninja style and say, "oh, by the way..."

It works for me at least. Then again, I don't wear tails or ears all day so maybe that is why it does.

Post by: kalan on September 10, 2015, 03:48:13 PM: I dont remember I kinda told everybody about. Likely my cousin though cause I went to mff like 2 weeks after I found this and she gave me a ride to the airport. So it would have probably been her

Post by: Obey138 (Matthew "Fluffy") on September 11, 2015, 09:42:59 AM: My dad. We aren't friends 100% of the time, but I trusted him, because he's into fantasy as well. It turned out good. He also asked, if I could contribute more info the fandom, which accidentally got me here.

Post by: snappyturtle on September 14, 2015, 04:39:31 AM: My very best friend, many years ago. She was very understanding. Then my husband. He somewhat understands but I'm not sure how he would feel about my being here.

Post by: warfox on September 16, 2015, 01:32:16 AM: lol thanks. anyways yeah I think I told my brother
Title: Re: Who's the first person you told you were a fur?
Post by: Nrein on September 16, 2015, 03:45:46 AM: About my fursona? Not the first person, no.

First person I told was my best friend, whose like a brother to me. I was already in by he middle of coming out as pansexual to him, so I figured "what the hell".

Second person was a girl I had a crush on, she actually surprisingly knew what furries are, and had asked what mine was. And then went on to see what I thought herself could've been if she was a furry.

And those are the only two people to really be told.

Post by: Caesium Iodide on September 16, 2015, 05:19:16 AM: Well, besides the person who dragged me into this group/fan base, a best friend knows. She still does. And it's a funny story how it happened and my whole reaction was," well. Shit." So I told her and she was fine with it. I bring it up sometimes just to show her my art or something else I'm working on but she's understanding.

Post by: L4BY_ on September 19, 2015, 12:20:33 AM: My first real best friend I met 2 years ago, who replied to me saying he's also a furry.
Title: Re: Who's the first person you told you were a fur?
Post by: Nii on September 21, 2015, 03:11:53 AM: My best friend, he's the only one IRL that knows about me being a furry, and he's totally okay with it. He even thinks anthros are cute, which is a start, maybe I'll be able to drag him into the furdom, who knows?

Post by: ShirokuTheHusky on September 21, 2015, 07:21:03 AM: My friend, who was the first one to actually tell me what a furry was.

And my dad probably already had the idea, just doesn't know what it's called, or how it fully works.

Title: Re: Who's the first person you told you were a fur?
Post by: Halei-Helai on September 22, 2015, 01:13:47 AM: I guess specifically my first person would be my current girlfriend. She doesn't really get it but she doesn't really care about it either, and I am not majorly into the scene so it is no big deal. We joke about it from time to time. It is pretty casual really, though if I were wearing ears or acting differently that might change. Don't see that happening though, ha ha.

Post by: Dr.Vice Jameson on September 25, 2015, 07:00:41 AM: I've never told anyone, but I think my friend who got me into it suspects. No one actually knows though.

Post by: Bayzan on September 29, 2015, 01:39:34 PM: My best friend, though I really kept it to myself since I didn't feel the need to tell any one. Best part about living in Puerto Rico, a handful knows what's a furry! :D
