Fursona's and dating

Sep 22, 2011 16:06

I made a twitter post today to see what everyone's thoughts were on dating particular species in the fandom, the responses were insightful and I thank everyone for their input. However I am a furry who is put off on the thought of dating particular species. I believe you choose your fursona whether it suits your personality, if its your spirit animal or you just have an affinity with a particular species. So I have nothing but respect if you choose to be an animal or hybrid if it fits one or all of these examples, however, choosing a species because its 'cool' really puts me off. I will hang out and socialize with them but anything more and I'm out.

I am after a relationship, i want a boyfriend. I recently found someone whose been a furry for 20 years but is new to the community, he is genuinely sweet and caring. His fursona however makes it hard for me to want more, Unlike the reasons I put above, his fursona fits his personality and its something very special for him but its a species I can't see myself dating. Call me crazy. This is who I am. I am interested in showing him to this community, I think he will be an amazing asset to us and the fandom.

That's my rant thanks for reading :3
