I hate living a lie – I'd love to 'come out'. Even in the future, I just can't see it happening.
Just can't.... I mean once you've told someone you can't 'un-tell' them. Too much to lose.
Has anyone come out and regretted it?
Feeling frustrated.

I came out to just my close friends - those that I could trust with the knowledge - within a couple of weeks of joining IC. I haven't regretted it so far. I've found it to be very liberating.

I feel lighter and a lot happier for coming out. I was sellective of whom i told, when i had a career to consider i kept that life and this separate...or attempted too, until i found out numerous managers there went to the munches...my face must have been a picture... I did not tell my family however...but where i used to live you walked in through the front door into my bedroom, through the bedroom to the rest of the place (don't ask about the layout) suprise visit...i had handcuffs, chains secured to the bed frame...oh and my ickle bro (ickle- hes a lot bigger than me) kindly pointed out the sturdy screw in loop/hook thingys around the frame of my bed !!! Dad wasn't fine at the time...(hes very traditional, old fashioned, and his little girl) its now a family joke... Edited 30 Apr 05, 3:23 PM by bighugs | |

I had thought I might inform the Inland Revenue - all that shoe polish I use is expensive and in any other business one can claim business expenses - - but they would not, probably, understand. A prosub - now there's a thought - get paid for cleaning. No - probably best for you to proceed with caution unless you are very sure your friends or the people you tell will understand. I had a friend some years back who asked his girlfriend to whip him - she was shocked and appalled - and, sadly, their long term relationship broke up. Slowly slowly l I think....unless you are very sure. It is a bit more complex than coming out as a gay - and that can be difficult for some, I know. I wish you luck.....I tend to have D/s friends and vanilla - works for me, but may not for others... Good luck, Melody

I had not choice but to come out cos my ex blurted most of things to my family. Thankfully its easier living the life not having to think quickly about what you have been doing and where you have been that weekend etc... Ok they dont approve but at least I dont have to fib no more. The kids dont know and wont know until they are old enough in my eyes to understand. as to friends they dont know and thats how it will have to be as they will NOt approve. Its not easy but thats life for us all | |

You wouldn't expect work colleagues to know particular desires when it comes to 'nilla sex so why should they know about BDSM stuff? For me it isn't a lifestyle thing but a bedroom thing... maybe making it a lifestyle is where problems arise. |
