I have seen quite a few sharks, mostly reef sharks, but I never had any trouble with them.
Off West Caicos Island there would be two or three reef sharks below us at every dive, they would follow us to the wall and stay above it as we dropped down. When we came back up they would follow us back to the boat. They never came very close or made any threatening moves, sometimes a little unnerving but overall pretty cool.
There was one guy doing his open water dives on the bottom, doing mask removal and replacement with sharks circling. That was probably scary.
Our last day diving we found out that the week before we arived a reef shark had bit a woman snorkeling off of a liveaboard. no wonder they didn't tell us while we were diving.
