How Much Of Your Past Should Your Lover Know? by majour(m): 2:17pm On Jan 09, 2013
ok, am dating this cute princess of chocolate goodness, yester night she brought up d ideal of confiding in each other with our past to know ourselves more beta, she told me about her escapades and i got a bit jealous and stuff (who wouldn't be), then it got to my turn to talk, so i told her about my fling with a married young lady and she got all vexed and quarreled with me, been trying to call her since and she ain't picking.
Was i wrong for saying the truth or is it that there are things one just don't trust with a partner.

Your thoughts.

Too bad shocked
Ur GF is tired of the relationship and needed an excuse to opt out, if not, I don't think she can be taken seriously..

^ good point dude bt NAH, she just left my place, she said she was angry cus it an immoral act (imagine? Like wat we do isnt) so its all good, bt the point still is, do we really confide in our partners with our past?

I need to trust someone before confiding in them. Here's the bomb: I don't trust anyone.

However, I've come close to trusting a few persons but it scared the shit out of me so I never confided.

Back to the op's question. The last time I tried to confide in myself in front of a mirror even my own reflection mocked at me.

Bottomline. Stop doing that...to be continued

Re: How Much Of Your Past Should Your Lover Know? by Dygeasy(m): 3:19pm On Jan 09, 2013
You are both sick

Did you say PAST? Let the past remain the past and don't allow it affect the present. If you allow it, You're obviously both high on something

If u both learn of each other's past, its a normal thing if its a bit dirty and if u know u can't deal with it when u learn about it, don't bother digging.

For not picking your calls, I repeat she is sick

it all depends on the type of past u had if ur past is too rough it is better u didn't discuss it with ur current partner to avoid unexpected break up
Re: How Much Of Your Past Should Your Lover Know? by Nobody: 3:23pm On Jan 09, 2013
I believe there are things that are better left in the mind. If its a sin,confess it to God and no one else. Truth can be hurtful atimes. So,only tell your partner whatever it is he/she can handle.

Don't share ur past with someone who will use it against you now,or in the future.

Know ur spouse's past,only when necessary,some things A̶̲̥̅®ε̲̣̣̣̥ better kept it the past τ̲̅ȍ avoid haunting us.

Ur girl is a definition of whom never τ̲̅ȍ share ur past with.

The good ones only. wtf is the point bringing past event that might probably harm your present happiness. no time, yesterday will never come back so move on.

I can't even remember how many relationships I have had in the past. So wanting to know my past might take her all the time in her youthful age. By the time she decides on whether or not to go ahead with me, she is too old to go away.

I don't think they have to know anything, I mean if they ask and have reasonable reasons for asking, you should always tell the truth. Including saying when your not comfortable disclosing something.

The past belongs in the past. It should be left there.However,if the info is relevant/important to your patner and you must confide in him,anticipating his reaction would guide the mode of delivery and how detailed you should get.

Every sin is a sin but there are some that potrays one as completely morally bankrupt,a person bereft of any sense of right or wrong.Any reasonable girl will be as pissed as she is.Married woman??Gosh!wtf is wrong with some guys?Tomorrow you expect a faithful wife rightas you shag others wives,so shall people shag yours.A man's wife will cost you your life.Desist from such acts.

Answer to ur post,reveal all the pasts that might likely pop out to haunt you in future to avoid suprises.If your pasts are not too sordid,reveal all.If u love this girl,You really have to show complete remorse to win her back.Funny no one is seeing any biggie in your revelation.Not all truth is necessary, telling a girl that you bleeped a fellow man's wife is f***ked mehn.
