Same here with Deaf people and same here with hearing people. I just hung out with the wrong people from time to time and learned my lessons from my experiences.
I learned that it is best not to have so many close friends in the Deaf community cuz too much gossip about my business. So, I just have 4 close girlfriends in PA and 1 close girlfriend here in MD. That's good enough for me. 
I have many other friends but on a casual level.
