"THEIR PAST SHOULDN'T MATTER IN A RELATIONSHIP" That's what we love to say, until the past starts showing up in the present. The truth is, it does if you're planning a future with them, not to judge, not to use it against them, but to understand how they became who they are. Their past holds the blueprint of their patterns, their fears, their way of loving, and sometimes, their unhealed wounds. You deserve to know the parts that shaped who they are now, but don't get so caught up in where they've been that you forget to see who they are today. But if you know you can't accept it, don't try to change them or hold it over their head. Just leave them alone. Don't use where they've been to punish who they are today.
