Talking to a partner or significant other about past trauma may seem like an insurmountable obstacle. Or maybe you are afraid your partner will consider you damaged after they learn about your past. When you take the time to establish trust in a loving, supportive relationship, revealing the past trauma can set up a whole new level of understanding between two people — it can actually make the relationship stronger. If you are ready for that step, be honest with yourself. The right people will support you through all of life’s adversities.
It is not a must for me to tell my partner about my past traumas. But it is important that I let him know. Letting him know about my past traumas tells him more about me, it helps him figure out how to love me the best. What time to give me space and what time to embrace me. It gives him a wide access to my past and that’s me confusing in him and allowing him heal with me.
