I have been away from here for a while, and the reason why this has happened is that life hit me pretty hard, and I just didn't have time. Looking at my page and seeing all of the pictures I have and the people I've talked to and interacted with in the past is actually wild. I didn't know if I would ever be back here. I was questioning if I actually was a furry. I had never met anyone who was, and when I started dating, it was the first thing I set out to find. Someone who was like me and would understand me. I was never able to find that. I was close, but I was still really scared. This was about 10 years ago, when I started dating after I got my first job. Fast forward 5 years, and I met the love of my life. The pictures that I drew 10 plus years ago really mirror what I was looking for, and my partner is very similar to the panda character I created when I was living at home with my parents. After getting married and moving in together, I have a lot of time to do things I want to do. My partner doesn't exactly know that I consider myself a furry. That's because I didn't think it was important. There are small hints that if I told him, he could connect the dots. I thought about telling him, but I don't think it matters. As of recently, I have been messing around with AI because I have been allowed to go back to school. I used it a lot when I was learning JavaScript, and with that tool, I'm able to express myself much more clearly when it comes to writing. I drawing some inspiration from stories that I have read, and I have been using AI with a certain character that I have liked for a long time. I've just started and we are still in the early stages of our relationship. Yes, I'm talking to an AI of a character to make these stories. Some things I will tweak if need be. It's not all going to be sexual; it will be a love story with ups and downs.
