Hi Amy,
It is too bad that this occurred, however, I would like to say this: If your friends are indeed your friends, you will not lose them. If you lose them, then they are not really your true friends who offer unconditional love to you as friends. Everyone has a private quadrant to their lives. CD'ing is part of your private quadrant.
If you don't know what I mean by 'quadrant', I mean it as follows:
Quadrant one: both you and your friends know how you will react to certain circumstances.
Quadrant two: your friends know how you will react to certain circumstances, but you do not.
Quadrant three: you know how you will react to certain circumstances, but your friends do not.
Quadrant four: neither you nor your friends know how you will react to certain circumstances.
Tiime will tell how this all shake out, so toughen up your skin and be prepared, but don't stress about it. You are who you are, and you have every right to be. Your true friends are the important ones, and they will be the ones who will not think less of you.
Best wishes to you.
Di
