Reasons Why One Must Tell His/her Partner About His/her Past by ojjp: 4:58pm On Dec 10, 2013
Some past could be so dirty and irritating.
Is it really necessary to tell your fiance/fiancee about your dirty past?

Some would say "some things are better left unsaid" but if I intend making it a long term relationship, Then Yes, I deserve to know because they would always pop up in future.

If it'sapadt that might hunt and hurt both of you in future, then, by all means say it.

If she ever asks you, for any reason, DON'T LIE TO HER!

Tell her the ones she should know or you might find out that she'd prefer you never told her that.

There are things that are better not said. I support you being entitled to hear the ones that might jeopardize the relationship in the future or rather at the moment.

I feel that all details gory or not should be told to one's partner. But what happens when all you have said is used against you later or one person who cannot come to terms with your past decides to walk away?

Let it all out, he who would stay would stay. He who wants to go should let the door hit him on his way out.

I still would, gone are those days when you work your a.ss off to get someone to stay with you. If she can't handle 'your past', Then fine! she's free to go.

That aside, someone above said something really thought-provoking, "what if the past is one that can be used against you?"

And that leads to my sincere take on this issue, I'm someone who would wanna know how bad you've been and hopefully forgive & forget it all, but unveiling mine? hmm! It's a "camel passing through a needle eye" situation. Yeah, you may think that's selfish. But Hey! After all said and done, who proves to be the understanding one? Me of course! cheesy
