I Am A Real Werewolf

I have a recent memory of when my father and I saw Underworld: Rise of the Lycans in the theaters. It was the first Underworld movie I actually went to see. I wasn't really aware of the first two when they first came out and, surprisingly, I kinda passed them up. Now, though, I own all three and I enjoy them. But, as for the memory, I just recall leaving the theater and my dad asking me "Why are you so interested in werewolves?" It was definitely awkward, but I side-stepped it or, more appropriately, lied. It wouldn't be until a few years later that I would tell him about me being a werewolf. That was certainly awkward at first, and I had to clear up a lot about what a werewolf really is, but now it's just normal (for us anyway).

Ever transformed into a werewolf? No? Then. sorry. You're not a werewolf. Sorry. Not a bigot...just stating the facts. I was where you are once. I saw twilight new moon and thought I was a werewolf. It was in middle school all 3 years. I did it because I was confused. I had just learned I had aspergers and I was trying to make sense of why I was who I was. So I adopted the myth. I did it as a way to say that it was the reason I was different...but you have to come to terms with who you are. Do not be ashamed.

i was talking about the other people who actualy gave valid reasons did I mention me NO so and I don't look for arguments I am just wondering why you ever came into this group I mean all you are doing is just putting down people and what they actually are
LeaderOfThePack
"Did I mention me." Good lord, and you think I'm arrogant. I'm only trying to point out the flaws and why this belief is not true. Putting down people for what they actually are is a broad way to put it. No one here is a werewolf. You keep evading the call for evidence like it scares the shit out of you.
ElderWolfShazza
Whatever still you don't have to go round and come to this group which is for Werewolves and then say that their not real when others have explained how they could be real and exsist and nothing scares the shit out of.me

To anyone who stumbles upon this post, I must personally apologize for the shameful and ridiculously extensive collection of comments below. I had considered deleting them, but instead I want them to remain as a reminder of what Experience Project is not. This is a place for sharing thoughts and opinions between people with common interests and experiences. Many people, apparently, do not understand that even though it should be obvious. However, we should not let this deter us. Years later, those who wish to share experiences and positive opinions remain, and those who try to cause problems always fade away.

I'd just like to add, considering how stupendously long that other comment thread got, that (and I'm not going to argue this one but just state what I have learnt) science can prove and disprove lots and lots of things. From my studying, reading quite a few textbooks, scientific journals, reports etc. being a Were and everything that it involves is scientifically possible. If you want evidence for that then I suggest reading a lot of broad knowledge based A-Level and University text books. These should give you the main ideas in the shortest space of time. If you want to look deeper into that then sure do. Even at a basic level many of these explore concepts that could make Were's possible. I saw you reference gravity before, so here's a good example summed up - gravity=acceleration and forces don't exist. If you want to argue those out then do so with Einstein and a whole bunch if quantum physicists.

You clearly did not pay attention to my post. Nowhere did I say that everyone should agree. I said "This is a place for sharing thoughts and opinions between people with common interests and experiences." And yes, debates and arguments should be allowed, but only if they actually accomplish something or are at least trying to accomplish something. You believe you are right and we are wrong, so you are not trying to progress or change. Neither debates nor arguments are about rigid positions screaming at each other immovably. That is called "bickering like children". If you want to be open to our perspectives instead of talking down to us and saying we are unquestionably wrong, I welcome that. Otherwise, leave this experience which you, by your own words, do not belong to and allow us to share personal experiences and opinions without being attacked. Keep in mind, by the way, you are making this argument on a post that is not opinionated. It is a personal story. You brought the conflict.

I usually just point to my own Debunking Paradox. You cannot disprove the existence of something because your own argument makes evidence impossible to find. I've heard a lot of people say "Werewolves don't exist because the full moon can't cause someone to physically transform". Well, if werewolves don't exist, then that statement is completely irrelevant. You have no way of proving that the full moon has anything to do with werewolves if the prerequisite of your argument is that they do not exist.

These kinds of topics can be weird around family.
Heck, my family tree is loaded with people who practice witchcraft/magic and conversations about it still get awkward.
Drachona · 31-35, M
Especially when you have the occasional member of the family who is very religious (specifically Judeo-Christian) and, sadly, does not want to hear any other opinions but their own.
BlackRaven2015
Yup, understand that all too well.
My mother practiced witchcraft in her teens, including things like voodoo, but she relied pretty heavily on Christianity later in life.
She didn't give me a hard time about witchcraft really, but she was bigoted in many other ways

Well I love underworld. I got the DVD set. & anime vampires tvs shows are my favorite tvs shows.
midnightwerewolfgirl07
Well I want to be a real werewolf. I never going to be a real werewolf. Nobody wants autism person who ever they want to be do you think that it wouldn't be fair. Now would it. Oky
midnightwerewolfgirl07
Maybe I shouldn't even talk to this werewolf people they will really hurt my feelings. (sigh). My life sucks for real.

I'm not sure if you're trolling (I love that this has to be a part of my vocabulary now) or if you're legitimate. But, on the off chance that it's the latter, there's no good reason for you to want to be a werewolf. I've never heard a good one, even when I challenged others to give me one. Being a werewolf would not make you better, and it wouldn't change who you really are. Your personality is what you should value more than anything else; the choices and perspectives that make you unique from everyone else. Not to mention, there is no way that I know of for someone to "become" a werewolf, and being so different in a society that demands normality to a neurotic extent would only make life harder than it already is. Trust me.

Hey so how did your dad take it if you told him ??
Drachona · 31-35, M
Well, at first he thought I meant I was running around at night and had thoughts of slaughtering other animals, etc. He thought I believed it was like the movies, but I cleared that up. We don't really talk about it, but it's pretty clear that it doesn't really bother him either way.
ElderWolfShazza
Oh ok that's good then
@Drachona I always thought that all family members are automatic too?
