Ignore This

This was a vent journal but I flipped out and took it down :V

I just avoided them for a while until they matured a bit and understood they upset me.
I'd cut the person out of your life for about a month or two COMPLETELY after you've explained things if they won't stop. Explain to them that you need time to yourself for a bit first so they don't get offended. If they get worse or don't get better extend that amount of time until they do or just stop talking to them entirely.
They're likely really hyped up about you because you seem so amazing to them. A fellow fur that can make awesome suits and is a really nice/ cool person. Just give them time to cool down. They're likely too excited and let the words slip out.
If they're doing it to talk bad about you behind your back however, then you gotta smack a bitch.
That is all.
As always, if someone doesn't like you for who you are then they're not really your friend, but I can understand not wanting to be outed. Although, maybe your friends just have the gross misconception of furries that many people do because of all the bad press about it and the nasty fetish-esque episodes on tv shows about it. You really are an amazing person and I'm sure they'd be impressed by your suits and stuff so long as they're open-minded really, and don't let some silly confirmation-bias shield their logic.
(Don't worry, btw. I saw your original journal entry before I started cooking dinner. When I came back it had changed, but I wanted to see if I could help. If the person found the journal and you don't want this up I won't be offended if you delete it.)
I really REAAAAALLY appreciate the advice though C:
it was both helpful and hilarious XD (I don't think I'll need to smack a bitch though XD)
Thanks sooooo much!
Good luck with him/her/it. Hopefully it all works out, whatever you decide to do.
