    It helps to know where you are coming from if we know where you have been. Long-term relationships particularly ones that affect your behavior are important to tell him.

    I agree with so many of these! But in an adult relationship you don't go through a list of ex bf's and discuss each one! That is such a no no. The past is the past, the good thing is you found him!!

    Exactly i was gonna talk about the ex discussion . im engaged to be married soon , and there's a relationship coach named " matthew hussey " ive followed since before i started dating my now fiancé , and matthew hussey says to never , never , discuss your history . in my opinion if there's something big like being cheated on that affects you now , you should share your with your bf , but previous men before him ?! No no no .
