omg, xyz...
we're having our first fight!
i look forward to the make-up sex...
but i get ahead of myself.
hiding one's sexual orientation at work doesn't work in the long run. if your boss is going to fire you because you're gay, then what kind of damage does one do to himself by living this kind of lie?
you can't just leave it alone. people you're with 8 hours a day are going to ask questions about your personal life. it takes an enormous amount of energy to create an elaborate lie about your entire life. and in the end, it's not going to work. people find out, and people GOSSIP... always.
it's like living as a hidden jew in nazi germany, or as a black person passing for white in the jim crow south. one slip-up and you're finished...
out of there, anyway.
if you're going to be fired for being gay, do it on your own schedule, not when some asshole outs you to your asshole boss.
i say these things humbly...
