Everybody has a past, that's what make you who you are. Each relationship you enter, in a perfect world, should be began with a clean slate and NO misconceptions or lingering skeletons. Unfortunately, however; that's not always the case. Know when to be candidly open and when minor details and trivial nuances can be laid to rest!
Word to the wise; if it will affect your current relationship: DISCLOSE
If it will NOT affect your current relationship: leave well enough alone
Here are two specific examples of when to DISCLOSE and when to leave alone::
1. I was kicked out of student council in 7th grade for getting into a fight at the dance we hosted. (Leave alone)
2. I currently have a restraining order on me for a bar fight I had a few months before I met you. (DISCLOSE)
See the difference?!
