I think playing it cool was the best thing to do really, although I must admit I'm a person who tends to err on the side of caution. Some people might want others to know, but for me, personal things like this are only for people you need to share them with; once one person knows, it could turn into a muddy slope of everyone knowing. All it takes is one work party with a few too many drinks to loosen tongues, and suddenly the whole workplace knows you're that person who gets treated like a slave at home.

Share with deeply trusted friends? Maybe
Share with colleagues? Nope
