Why You Shouldn't Tell Your New Partner About Past Failed Relationships

30.07.2024 18:24

Have you recently started dating someone? Don't rush to share details of your past relationships with this person!

Don't talk about the difficulties of life with your ex-partner. Don't list the reasons for the breakup.

You will be able to fully “open up” to a new companion only after you have confidence in your absolute trust in this person.

Why you shouldn't tell your partner about your past relationships right away

Firstly, some details may scare off your new partner.

He may conclude that the breakup was your fault. As a result, this person will not be particularly inclined to create a happy relationship with you.

Secondly, you will probably start criticizing your ex-partner (“He didn’t care about me,” “She’s bad,” etc.)

Your current partner will definitely not like this. He might decide that you will speak badly about him later.

Thirdly, you shouldn’t be overly sincere in your communication with a person who hasn’t yet become your true soulmate.

Perhaps, in the near future, you will understand that you are not right for each other and break up. As a result, the person with whom you recently tried to build a relationship will remain the "carrier" of personal information about you. What if this person does not know how to keep secrets?
