I told only a selected few of my closest friends. They could have guessed. One of the guys in my law class overheard and everytime he's within 10 feet of me he would start shaking...It's acually pretty cool but I feel bad at the same time.

Haha, I think a lot of the occupations werewolves have are kind of scary, all things considering. I'm going to have my teaching certificate in a little over two years. A werewolf high school history teacher. Children beware.

Well, about 5 of my friends know and my mom knows also. I am pretty safe to talk about it, I really do not care what people says, and most wouldn't believe it anyway, so... I do talk about it off-line also...

G'luck, Shady. I'm sure we could use a lawyer occasionally.

Sure right, Zandt

I've probably told most of the people in my school that i'm a Werewolf and I've told my family, Most of their reactions were typical, they tend to leave me alone , some started pointing out how it would be impossible for the body to go through that kind of change, i just let em talk, my friends dont have any problem with it. The reactions from my family are pretty much the same as the first two, except for my mom, she has no problem with it.
Other than that no ones ever come up to me telling me that they're a Werewolf.

I'm unlikely to ever tell anyone to be honest, they'd probably have me sectioned.

I've only admitted to a few of my close friends that I am a therian. Of course I am open about it here because everyone doenst get all freaked out if I act wolfish.
I've know I was something else ever since I was little. I had a connection to animals and nature. I would find myself sleeping by the light of the moon and turning to her for solace when I was down. I lived in a small room with a window at which I would sit by at night and gaze up at the moon. Her beauty gave me peace. Not long after that, I noticed I have a talent at howling. I acquired other things such as excellent smelling and hearing.
I didnt know what I was. I saw werewolf movies, but that didnt quite fit it. I happened to stumble upon a site where it talked about therians. So, I didnt start calling myself that up until 2 years ago.

I can't really admit if I don't know. And I'm thinking it was mostly a phase.. but I've come close to telling, never actually did.

Well, my mom's reaction, at first, was typically sceptical, till she noticed that I wasn't kidding. She later told me that it sort of makes sense to her. You see, I am part Native american, and comes from a strange family. i have a close sense of nature. As for anyone telling me, I had one friend tell me she was one ,and another one says he might be, so...

No one up here knows anything about therians, vampires, furrys, just about anything on the internet. So, no one would really get me.
But that's what can make things funny.

I don't feel the need to 'come out' to anyone really, very few people would be likely to understand and I don't feel the general need to broadcast it.

"Coming out" is rooted in a desire for acceptance, not just for yourself, but for your therianthropy. When you hide it, it starts to send a message to your subconscious that there is something "wrong" about it, something "wrong" with you, because that's what you do when something's wrong with you, you hide it. There is nothing wrong with Therianthropy, but if you tell someone who accepts it, you can more easilly tell yourself that.
It's normal to want to tell someone or explain it to someone, and can probably be good for you, that is, after you've come to fully understand it and you're sure you are one and all that.

I still can't get my head around my self-acceptance in a way. Part of me still just wants to ignore all the blatent signs because it still feels new and odd to think of myself in that way. While it explains a lot of my behaviour, its difficult for me to accept it when I know the rest of the world thinks its wrong and strange.

you beat me too it...
*pout*

Me too. I regrettably told one of my family members. They forgot after I spent a whole hour explaining it to them, and asked if I still thought I could really turn it a wolf. I said the word therian and they acted like the never heard it. It angered me, but I just don't feel the need to tell someone who it won't matter to.

My mom would literally say "Are you on crack?"
Sometimes everything sucks, when even your parents won't//can't understand you.
Maybe my dad, I'm more comfortable around him...
Offline
My mom wouldn't care. I just might tell her in the next few weeks.

Heh. Fenrir, I call that social transparency. It comes in handy sometimes. I told one of the members of the gospel group I was in that I was a Werewolf. Less than a year later, I mentioned it and it shocked him as if I had never mentioned it.
How do you forget that someone said they're a Werewolf?
Some things, evidently, don't stick in people's minds very well.

... darnit, was going to make some silly joke about the white wolf werewolf universe where human's, presented with the impossible, will forget or explain away what they have seen as a protective mechanism. And I've completely forgotten what they called it, so my joke sucks.
