Here's my take on the situation, for what it's worth.
My opinion has always been, what ever goes on behind closed doors between consenting adults is their own business. but, not everyone shares that opinion, which presents your dilema.
From what little I know about you, you've had some sadness in your life recently and probably do not need any more. I would hate to see you get judged by people you thought were friends because you do something that makes you happy, but they don't agree with. I understand that you don't want to hide things from people, but that may have to be the case.
It's unfortunate that we live in "The land of the free and the home of the brave" and are able to do anything we want but, "ohh, not that. That's immoral"
In the end I can't make the decision for you, but can support you to make the decision that makes you the happiest. I support your right to do whatever pleases you, Ratbastid and the couple you are dating.
If you were friends of mine and you told me about your lifestyle, I would not turn my back to you. I hope that means something. Unfortunately, that's all I can offer.
