Again, what?

This is what it's like to talk to VanZandt.

Wait, people have been talking to me?!!?? Did I miss something. Excuse me while I wipe the drool from my chin......

...and with that series of informative back-and-forths, and the personality revealed within, WolfVanZandt becomes the first member of this pack that I'll be paying a bit more attention to. I think I like you, somewhat. My first day strolling around, and you manage to impress.

Look out, VanZandt, you've got a stalker.

...I'm keeping an eye on him, and you're keeping an eye on me. We all watch until we're sure; that's the way of things. He reminds me of an old friend, sadly now gone.

Torchwolf, you know this is not a roleplay site, right? I've seen your posts and it kind of looks like you're almost roleplaying, talking about the woods and stuff.

...sure, KaraWolfDragon, I'm fully aware that there's no roleplaying happening here. That's just how I express myself. When I talk about strolling in and out of "the woods", I just mean that I'm going from one spot on this site to another. Sorry if I confused you or gave you reason for concern. I'll try to speak more plainly from now on. As I replied to ShadyHowl above, we all watch each other until we're sure.

...seems that you (the group you, not any individual) were discussing knowing if you're a therian, how you'd know, and the general history of the term, with WolfVanZandt going into the history, mentioning the Neuri, the original werewolves in Herodotus' History, and when the deeper information was about to be tossed about and discussed, I came and said hello, and the thread got a bit off course. Given ShadyHowl's paw point toward Google, I gave thought toward just going over there, but I'd really like to listen to WolfVanZandt's opinions about it before I go running off without a map to follow. He does seem like he knows what he's talking about. By the by, I'm no stalker; I just think I recognize intelligence when I read it. (shrug)

Ah, I like TorchWolf. I want to keep him around. He can be my hippothalamus......

But I could go on and on like this forever. Do you have any specific requests? I can do "Come to Me My Melancholy Collie."

Okay, just checking.

to the person who said that hanging around those like yourself is good, yes it is. Being a leader of a House/Pack now, and having been a member of one before it definitely helps you grow. I didn't really 'grow up' and mature until I met them. They answered many questions I had, and helped me understand and even accept myself even more and become comfortable with it.

Generally to people new to therianthropy I suggest them to try to meet with those like themselves but proceed with caution. I always generally suggest reading up on spirituality, and different spiritual practices. When I think about how I was a few years ago, I wince but also I thank some people who were there with them.
