My wife knows as does a woman part-time employee at a place where I volunteer. Long story short: She saw me buying a dress (20 miles from home) and asked me if I often bought dresses for my wife. I will not lie, so I told her the truth. She immediately became my ardent supporter and is still a wonderful friend 4 years later. I have shared pictures of Heather with her and last month she met Heather for the first time. Had she not asked me about the dress, she would not know I CD. My feeling is you need a reason to share this part of your life with others. What that reason is, is up to each person.
