We have all done things we regret in the past and don’t enjoy remembering. Maybe we are ashamed of ourselves and what we have been and done.
Nobody in their right mind goes on a first date with a book of confessions to inflict on a virtual stranger, but sooner or later, when you are happy that the relationship has legs you will need to come clean.
I don’t mean that you confess to once liking the Spice Girls or nicking apples from a garden when you were six. More the fact that your mother has an ongoing alcohol problem or that you had an unwanted pregnancy at sixteen or that you got into a spot of trouble with the police a few years back.
Why tell at all? Well it’s either that or risk someone dropping it into a conversation one day and embarrassing you in front of your partner. If you do decide to keep parts of your past secret don’t compound matters by claiming that your Mum is dead and that you were a virgin until your 35th birthday.
Pick your own time to tell them what it is about yourself that causes you regret but do not fall into the trap of covering your tracks and digging a monumental hole for yourself.
