Hidden

It's a difficult thing to feel as though you have to remain hidden in some parts of your life. Particularly in regards to people you care about. 

One of my partners has some circumstances that require a little.. discretion.. when discussing or sharing the nature of our relationship with the world.  Over the time we've been together, the need for discretion lowered more and more... until we were fairly open, even on facebook. 

An event recently took that a few steps back, and unfortunately reinforced that I am the hidden partner (not quite as cool as it sounds).  In the grand scheme of impact, it's minimal..  but in a world where Jerk Brain reigns,  it feels like yet another reminder of where I am. 

Alright jerk brain.. we should figure this out.....  lest one of us say something silly!
