I could not imagine telling my parents, especially my step-dad. Oh dear Hecate, that would be a BAD idea.

Right now I'm kind of stuck in this point where I'm really proud of who I am and I kind of want to shout it from the roof tops, other people be damned. I'm not going to and thankfully in real life I'm too "shy" (okay, not shy, just quiet. I don't talk. most people aren't worth my consideration, to be honest) to go spouting it all around town. But still.

I do have a bumper sticker that says Lycanthropy on it!

For me? Nobody knows.. to them, they'd think I was trying to pull a prank.. or that I was just a crazy piece of sh*t. Haha, kind of funny.

I do have a reputation for pranks though.....

I tell close open minded friend.

like i said, close & open minded friends

I don't try to hide it in general, but I don't go around saying it so much, and there are people I don't tell.
EDIT: heh, 111 posts... when did I get to 100?

I'm too much of a "chicken!" to tell anyone blantely that I may be a Cat and/or Wolf Were/Therian (like the stupid pun? )  I kinda keep my animal behaviors too myself when I can; when I have control.  I know I've acted a bit "feline-nish" before around two of my best friends, but; despite them knowing I'm into writing and drawing anthro's and were's, I think they just think I just like to add weird.  I've had another so-so friend ask once before why I draw all these animal people, direct quote "what is with you and cats!?" ...he's the last person I'd ever tell about myself.

I have found how convenient the line, "animal spirit" is. If I either come across new people, or people I already know, that wouldn't understand, I use that as an explanation.

I was okay with my parents.

"Animal spirit" works for some people. It most definitely doesn't work for others. The idea is to pay attention to who you're talking to.....

Why is it that every time I come across a thread like this I always feel like I'm the only one who is OK with my parents?

Heh, I'm cool with my mom. My step-dad and I have never liked each other, never will. It's just one of those things. I don't think I could tell my mom or family though, because of the fact that they're all such stuffy Catholics sometimes. Religion kind of effects every decision one makes in my family.

Aside from that: My friend and I were talking about this last night and she told me her method of telling people she's a shifter (or polymorph or whatever you want to call it): first she tells them her older brother haunts her. Because ghosts, out of all paranormal sounding things, is the most believable. Once they accept that easily enough, she steps it up with a random comment on her two brothers being a vampire and a dragon. Then, if they accept that, she tells them she's a shifter. She did that with me, actually. It's kind of like a test.

Is a bummer you  had a argument with your friend *****,but im glad you made friends again.
It would be nice to know some Therian or Otherkin here where i live.I could be open to them then,i feel kinda lonely here.

About my best friend,il try and bring it in hints,just to see how he thinks about it.
Il tell the results!

Awesome I found the same thing when I came here. It's hard to find a talking point about werewolves in a regular chat with most folks.

"Hey, it's so great to catch up!"

"Yeah, it is. Thanks for coming for a coffee, it's been a while."

"Yeah." *twiddles thumbs* "So, how bout those werewolves huh! Saahweeeet! You know, I keep waiting for someone to make another quality werewolf movie - you know like American Werewolf In London - but nobody seems able to pull off a decent flic. What up with dat! And seriously, what do you think, are CGI werewolves worth it?"

o.O "Uh... excuse me." *runs*

Okay, maybe not that bad. It's not the ONLY thing I talk about...

ahaha,thats a good idea *****!

I will make his screensaver say the Werewolf cafe URl and then he'l click on it
Then he will recognise my screen name (i use it in all the games i play) and he'l start thinking.........
Wait a sec,isn't that...... *checks to be sure*
OMG it is him! I gotta ask him at school!

And maybe if he stays around at the Cafe,he maybe will find out if he's a Therian too!
