jusified Posted March 4, 2007 Posted March 4, 2007 "If you cheated on an ex, would you tell this bit of your past to your new partner?" This came up in a topic lately and I am quite surprised by most people's response. Maybe I am just weird but I believe in truth and been open. It is important to me that my partner is open and honest with me, she should tell me everything. If my gf did not tell me then I probably be prett upset LOL. I know some ppl are going to say why does the past matter?? Well it matters because it is part of who a person is. By admitting your own mistakes, be open and honst shows that you have learnt and want to deal with the problem.
Tormented Posted March 4, 2007 Posted March 4, 2007 "If you cheated on an ex, would you tell this bit of your past to your new partner?" Hmmm...my guess is that most people would choose to withhold this information from future mates for fear that the "new love" will view this in a negative light and be reluctant to trust them. Perhaps the "cheater" learned his/her lesson and has resolved to never again repeat this mistake, but chooses to keep what happened in the past. Me? I'd prefer to know if a prospective partner cheated in the past. If he did, I'd want to know why, under what circumstances did he cheat, how he felt about doing so, and what he's done to assure he won't do it again. In other words, I want to know what I'm getting into BEFORE diving in head-first. Problem is, we don't always get that kind of head-up, unfortunately. Relationships are risky business, aren't they?? ~T~
