All these different responses. Wow. My wife and i just recently discussed my cd, and we're still coming to terms with it. So far i don't feel that it has effected us very negatively. I have a hard time not being embarassed around her now, but i'm sure that will fade. She mentioned taking her mother and neice out to get pedicures (after we had talked the other night about when i took her and I to get one, and confessed to her, that yes, I wanted my toes painted but could not imagine really going through with it.) When she mentioned that we both recognized a bit of embarassment on my part because she knew what I was thinking, but didn't say anything about it.
She has been warm and considerate toward me since our talk, and has been taking her time adjusting. Yesterday (the day after the talk), I sat down in her lap (we're already kind of weird like that), and she hugged me and with smile and chuckle said "there's no chance that what we talked about last night was a dream, was it?" I told her it wasn't. For right now, I'm just happy she knows. It's been quite a weekend
