Well, you don't HAVE to say "husband" just because you are married - you could say partner...
In fact I do that occasionally, to keep people wondering...but then as soon as I use a pronoun the game's up.
I know what you mean - if I get into any kind of acquaintanceship with anyone, I feel obliged to bring up my bisexuality in some way - reference to an old girlfriend etc. just so as not to do the invisibility thing.
Totally! But how to do that without it seeming totally contrived? Especially in situations where you don't tend to reveal much personal information anyway.
