My wife knows about "me" for sure. So does my nasty ex-wife who told our children about Dad. At least they're fine with knowing I CD'd. And I've often wondered who else might know. Maybe a year ago I was in a conversation with my sister-in-law and she told me that a few in her family knew about me from the beginning when I started dating my wife. She was fine with it. She wouldn't tell me how they found out. My in-laws are great anyway. I suspect some people I once worked with definitely know. But that contact is no more.
Still, I find it unnerving at times when I might meet up with someone. I'm sure there may be some who don't care and don't say anything. I wasn't thinking one day and while my wife talked with her mother outside I walked out in my capri jeans and pink flip-flops. (In my mind -- Oh S---T!) Nothing happened.
So how do you feel about this issue? I haven't had any real problems over it except that it keeps me wondering, guarded, and defensive in some ways.
