So basically they are going to follow your lead but not really initiate anything for that reason, it would be hard if someone asked how you knew each other or something like that because they couldn't really answer, I mean if they didn't answer then everyone would know anyway. So next time go for it but keep in mind you might be self-disclosing just by having the conversation.
Thanks! Yeah, I'm not concerned about someone overhearing that I go to counseling. I'm pretty open about it (except with my co-workers and bosses).
