He didn't bat an eyelid, looked me straight in the eye and said "I know. I've known since the first day I met you".

WTF! WHY DIDNT YOU TELL ME! OMG! It took another 18 years for me to figure it out!!!!
I bet that took a lot of courage! I'm so glad he was so supportive of you... I get the impression you needed this right now. having that one non-T person in your world who knows can make a big difference.

We have only ever had one non-DID/T friend that we have told, and we had a similar response. Validating and scary at the same time.

Have you ever asked your T outright?
