I don't mean to ostracize or make you feel worse, but have you considered your furry'ness is worth less than friendship? Maybe your friends creating space was a way of saying "You care more about getting attention than you do about being part of our friendship"?

Maybe set aside what you want to be (a furry) to maintain what you had (friends).

I mainly suggest it because no one teaches young people they are responsible for their happiness. Maybe you're feeling depressed because of your choices (pretending to be a wolf)?

My opinion is absolutely an unpopular one, but you have to think of your friends feelings, not just your own.

The other person has a point to an extent: relationships are two-way streets.

Hey ratonalist if you are still there or even read my stuff anymore i want to tell you that i made up with my friends and well only the girl that i ALMOST asked out stayed my friend the other 3 said they couldnt be friends with an animal and left without another word
I'm glad the one person stayed your friend. I would suggest keeping the friendship the same as how it was before you told her.

I have hobbies that I don't try to impose on my friends, and if I did, they wouldn't want to be my friends anymore because they're not interested in all of the same things I am.

I don't know about you, but if I was in your shoes, I would be laughing after-the-fact about those other three. They just needed some kind of an excuse, and it was a silly one. I would be like: lol, okay, moving on.

Thanks for the update, and best of luck going forward!
