when i first became a furry, i lost ALL of my irl friends, and even my bestie started to avoid me. i was sad and felt hopeless, and was even bullied for being who i am, but i still am happy with the choices that i have made as a furry. Sappho probably had/has it like i did, and still do. she was bullied for being honest and herself, like i did, which must really be hard for her. she admitted to it calmly, but they still bullied her.
