The right time to share your past: As you search for your person.

Do avoid sharing details about a toxic past (be it of your earlier relationship or growing up years) with someone you’re just getting to know. It’s not about hiding the truth but ensuring you don’t overwhelm a stranger with complexities they might not fully grasp which you have moved on from, and now it is 'a matter of fact conversation'.

The question is bound to come-up more if you have experienced being in a relationship - in such a situation, share your learnings and insights without delving into specifics - of how/ why/ what/ when.

You can choose to discuss these experiences in depth once trust develops which means after a couple of years into the relationship, this too if you wish to.

Similarly, when asking about someone’s past, focus on what they’ve learned rather than the specifics of "why/ what/ how."

This is a crucial tip for building a meaningful connection that could lead to a long-term relationship.
