Experiences With Furries IRL

[Tommy]

I don't know any. I'd be surprised if I met one.

Not that far... And keep in mind that it's 5 miles out of your zip code, not your address... Other than my friend, the closest away from me is around 6.5 miles, but his profile was last updated 6 years ago...

If you're looking for local furs, you could try the frappr on the Michigan Furs forum. Just google Michigan Furs (duh) and register on the forum.

I'm already a member of the Midwest Furries Forum... I just went on IFPL for shits and giggles. XD
And besides... The IFPL is anonymous to look at the names, while you have to ask who lives in a certain area on MiFurs.

while you have to ask who lives in a certain area on MiFurs.

Unless I read this wrong, you shouldn't have to. It's just a public map with member's locations. (assuming they took the time to register on the frappr)

 

[Taekel]

I've never met a fur from British Columbia. Or even Canada.

Oh, no I did not. *goes to register*

The only ones in Phoenix I've ever talked to were MurriePurries.

fuuuu

I've mentioned this a few time already, but since this is the official thread for it, I'll just say it again.

I have this friend that I met in school not too long ago who I suspect of being a furry because he keeps tracing furry pictures in public in school. I can deal with him tracing since he's just practising to become a better artist, but he traces pictures from the really terrible and overrated artists like Chalosan, Jesonite, Tailsrulz (although his art has improved lately) and others.

He's generally a swell guy, but I don't want to have anything to do with the furry side of him since the pictures he traces makes me cry. Although for all I know it could be more of an anime thing, since he does the same thing with human anime chicks.

Not met any IRL, but if they were as sympathetic to terrorists as certain board members who shall remain nameless to protect the stupid a fist fight would break out.

 

[RayO_ElGatubelo]

I met one in the University of Puerto Rico, he was a swell guy.

You know, joining the Furicuas, it's amazing how many furries I have living near me. One is just one town away, and the other is in the same part of San Juan where my family owns a gas station.

Too bad my folks hate furries...

 

[Tabasco]

Tons. There's 100+ around here (four in my town, only one of which I like), and when you get the bi-yearly picnics and such most will attend, along with a few furries from neighboring states.

Most of them I don't like because they:

1. Are even more relentlessly stupid than myself, which is practically a sin.
2. Make animal noises or baby talk at me.
3. Terrify the waiters and waitresses at the restaurant where one of the multiple weekly meets are held with IRL murrpurr.
4. Think they're popufur or only hang around their own little furry clique.

I have several friends, though. Some of the local furries are fun people once you get used to them. And some of them are just plain fun people.

DAMN! And that's in Minnesota? It's like it's Southern California or something!

 

[RoqsWolf]

Haven't met any yet, but i'm sure i'll find some in High school X3, I know two local furs though (Haven't met in person yet) And there all right people, "awkward" conversations happen with them more often though then my irl friends though heh.

 

[Rakuen Growlithe]

I met two new furs today and only left them about two hours ago But yeah, I've enjoyed meeting furs irl. They're comfortable to be around and some of them are a lot of fun.

 

[Seas]

I have met many furries in the meets we organize around here.
About 95% I personally know are sane, "normal" individuals. And 95% of the ones I've heard of at all from the regional fandom, are that too, there are only a few cases of weirdos.

 

[wolfrunner7]

Only met two so far .. and though we had fun, I can't help but to feel I made a complete fool of myself. Neither seem to want to speak to me anymore *shrugs*

Problem with being sheltered I guess .. you come up way too short on having things in common with others.

 

[Oovie]

"I haven't met any IRL..." I'm not sure about the usage of the ellipses here, you're making it sound like I regret not having experiences with them.

 

[Ames]

I haven't met any furries outside my group of friends, and I don't plan to. Something tells me that I would regret it.

 

[foxmusk]

every furry i have met IRL other than scruffy have turned out to be crazies. one constantly goosed my ass and asked to yiff, and when i responded he would just say "lol" to each post. i think he killed himself.
the other ones always hugged me and squeezed me and so on.
i have one furfriend that we had a big fallout, but i'm cool with him now.

i do have one furfriend i'd like to meet soon, doesn't live far from here.

 

[Van Ishikawa]

I just noticed, you're in VA, Harley? Huh.

I keep flip flopping on if I'd actually like to meet furs or not. Some days I'd be thinking how great it would be to meet some people from the fandom, and other days I want absolutely nothing to do with them. I dunno, maybe I'd just have to get excited about meeting someone there first; just showing up at a fur meet or con would probably drive me away from the fandom for a few months.

 

[CynicalCirno]

Well you see.. I have this computer here in real life. So in real life I meet furries in the internet. That's not like the internet is not my life, I'm still typing this on my keyboard.

As for the truth, I don't know any. At least not in eyes, and I never heard them.
I know two furries but I trolled one and the other is really closed to the trolling victim. I need to talk to them..

True. Oops on my part. :/

 

[Melrius]

Never met any in RL, though I'd like to
