Dear Papabear,

I'm afraid my life has been turned upside down.

Me and my girlfriend were a happy couple of furries. It was love at first sight and we immediately felt happy about each other. We were together 10 years, and when we were old enough we had sex. We grew into a happy couple; sadly, though, the relationship came to an unexpected ending.

My girlfriend, who is a husky in the furry world, went to a furmeet (I couldn't go because of other commitments) and she met a guy as a fox. They got on really well, and when I did meet him we became best friends. We got on so well.

A while ago I found "certain human stains" on her husky headpiece and suit. She denied it, even though there was evidence. I asked her if she was having a relationship and she said no.

Yesterday (nearly 4 years after I first met him) I learnt that my girlfriend had been yiffing with him at furmeets and its destroyed me and its destroyed what relationship we had. She had been having an affair with him since we had gotten together.

Sometimes when I'm away she's had him over and they would suit up and just yiff. The hardest thing was that I caught them in the act when I came home early and found them in the forbidden act on top of my bed of plushies.

I confronted her and asked her why.

The only thing she said was that "We were never together, never an item, and I never loved you."

I considered our relationship over with and the fact I'd just been played by her has just devastated me. It devastated me more for the fact that she'd had sex with him before me and her had become intimate, so I'm was extremely concerned I could have caught something off him via her. I did get myself checked and I'm clear. 

I never had an affair and I'm the one being punished.

My question, Papabear is what did I do wrong? 

Lenmar Fox (age 21)

Hi, Lenmar,

Sorry to hear such a bitter tale. Let’s cut to the quick: you did nothing wrong. Your formal girlfriend is, well, a female dog, shall we say, and I don’t mean her fursona.

Glad you got tested and the test came out well. To be safe, test again in six months. If (gods forbid) you contracted HIV it can take up to six months to show positively in a test, just FYI. (Another reminder to use condoms, which I’m surprised if you didn’t, given the risk of impregnating her).

Back to the former girlfriend. The reason I call her a female dog is that she led you on for ten years, making you believe that she cared about you. I suppose, if she didn’t love you, she was getting something out of this, such as money or help with something. It wasn’t sex, since she got that from her other lover. She sounds like a user, and the fact that she emotionally manipulated you for so long is, in my book, inexcusable.

Perhaps, if there is something you did wrong, it might have been getting in a serious relationship at age 11 (if I have my math right, you said you were with her 10 years and you’re only 21 now). It’s easy to make mistakes when you are very young and fall in with the wrong person. But now that this is happened, there are two ways this might go: you might become very bitter, never trusting anyone again and dooming yourself to a lonely life, or you will learn from the experience and do better next time. Often, looking back at the past, you will see things now (with your current knowledge of who the femme dog really is as a person) that you didn’t realize before. Signs you didn’t pick up on (because you were trusting and in love) that now you will recognize as evidence that she wasn’t really the loving mate you thought. Take inventory of these signs and learn to see them for what they are in the future next time you get into a relationship, which, hopefully there will be one.

And don’t think of the 10 years as wasted time. If you’re smart, there is a lot you can learn from it; also, I bet you had some fun times (even if she didn’t) that you can enjoy as happy memories.

Life is a learning experience, and you just got a big lesson. Be educated and move on. Oh, and if you haven’t already, tell that fox to go yiff himself, too.

Wishing you better love in the future.

Hugs,

Papabear

Hi, I'm new here! The title of the post probably gave it away, but whatever.

I'm a 17 year old American and just got into the furry fandom a few months ago because my best friend is in it and because of the amazing art (seriously, it's like all you guys have some innate hidden talent or something). My fursona is ... still being worked on. He's an otter ... and that's pretty much it for now. Obviously, I'm not a very colorful person. It's only my fourth or so piece of furry artwork I've done, and there's a lot of stuff I still need to work on if I'm ever gonna get as good as you guys.

I'm a transplant from the MLP fandom, if that means anything. As of now, that's still my "primary fandom", but the furry fandom has been very good to me for the while that I've been here. I like it here a lot! Other interests include things like vexillology, urban planning, and the weather.

Lastly, I'll be starting college overseas in London this September, so if you know any fuzzbutts over there (or if you are one) I'd sure like to know!

Alright, that should be all, I think. I'm still not gonna do much redditing aside from lurking, so don't expect me to do chime in too much. I'll just end the post by asking you this: How are ya and how's the weather in your neck of the woods?

Thanks for being so awesome!

The time has come where I must give you my farewells. I haven't posted much here, but it's been a lot of fun lurking among you. Early tomorrow morning, I will be departing for nepal Switzerland where I intend to live as a goat will be attending a school with limited communications to the outside world.

Before I leave, I just want to thank you all for all of the happiness you've brought me throughout the last couple of years, and for helping to cheer me up when school work piled up.

Someday I shall return, hopefully a better person with more skills, but only time will tell.

TTFN,

- Arkazex

I live in France and feel like there is barely anything here for furries like me, fursuiters or not, and was honestly wondering why this is the case. In the US, it feels like many things are done for many types of communities, and not only furries, but for video games too, and many more. Or am I just wrong, and just haven't heard of the right cons? Being a furry is much easier in the US because of all the conventions, the furry shops, etc. A quick search on google brought up one european furry con, Eurofurence, and that's it. And another one brought up a map of the buttload of conventions that take place all over the US. I'm bummed that I can't, once a year, in my own country, meet people like me. Plane tickets to the US are pretty expensive and we don't all have the money to pay for it.

C'mon, europeans! We can do better than that! It shouldn't be so hard for furries to unite and have fun together! (Again, I might be wrong, and completely missing out on some awesome furry meetings in Europe or France. If that's the case, feel free to correct me.)

Edit : After a bit of digging, I was able to find a few european conventions. Seems like my point of view was biased, since there happens to be absolutely nothing in France, but there IS in fact conventions here and there, mostly in Germany. But my point still stands : compared to the US or even Japan, it's very very spread out and there aren't many. Which is a real shame!

Edit 2 : I didn't create this thread because I'm personally looking to meet some furries, but because I want to know more about our european community, and maybe to help some furries who feel the same way as me.
