That awkward moment

[xaq_the_aereon]

When you've been friends with people who all had a common interest that you didn't share and had no problem with, but when you find yourself starting to share that interest, and for some reason the ability to mention it to them just slams to a halt in your throat.

Been experiencing that with a couple of my friends over the past few days, and the reason why I can't bring myself to say "Hey guys, you know that thing you all like that I don't? Well, I kinda do now" completely eludes me. I should have no problem with it, and yet every time I get the urge to bring it up, I just choke.

It's infuriating in how stupid it is.

EDIT: Forced myself to say it in a reply to David down below.

EDIT: For those not interested in reading the comments, I've finally decided to start identifying myself as furry.

Just, don't expect me to start wearing a fursuit anytime soon, though. XP

Whoops, I missed that there was the angsting over this, since I don't check LJ as often these days, so the first thing I saw was your Tumblr post when it was finally out. Sorry for missing this, wish I could have helped at the time :( But a belated welcome to the club! I'm glad it worked out and you're not worried about it anymore, at least. :)

It's okay. Truth be told, this was less "angsting" and more "maybe I can drop a subtle hint about what it is I'm trying to get myself to admit and someone'll drag it out of me."

And whaddya know, it worked! :D
