The Past: What is dead may never die
Today's action will someday be tomorrow's past. We need to be careful of things we do today for we don't know where we will be tomorrow. So many relationships going well suddenly break up due to the revelation of the past of one of the partners.
So many challenges come with being in a relationship with someone who has a shady past. It can be really tough to move on from the past and put all of your trust in someone new. You keep on having doubts but that can be solved with Love.
For a lot of people, it seems impossible to forget what has happened in the past. And, if you’re the partner of someone with a shady past, it can be really hard for your spouse to open up to you, knowing how you will react to such. In the long run, you might get to know from another source and you will feel betrayed and angry.
It’s important to remember that the past can be destructive, but it doesn’t have to be the end of your relationship. If both partners are willing to work together, they can move on from the past and create a brighter future. With trust and understanding, the relationship can move forward.
But what about the relationships where both parties are open and share each other's past? They're more connected because they've let go of the need to hide things. They're not perfect, but they're more real because of it.
It's about being open and honest with yourself, and with the people, you care about. It's about not being afraid to show your scars because they make you who you are. And I believe that this type of relationship is something to be admired.
Talking about the past with your spouse can be a great way to clear any doubt and prevent surprises down the road. Some people prefer to do this from the very beginning, while others prefer to wait until they're more comfortable. Either way, it's an important conversation to have.
I believe that the past is a great teacher. It can help us to understand who we are and how we got to where we are. We should never forget our past, especially the bad times because they have made us stronger. We should always learn from our mistakes and never let them happen again.
We should also create a healthy environment, let your partner be comfortable enough to share their past and fears with you, to avoid surprises in future. Also, never used their past in abusing or mocking them. During a fight or misunderstanding, don’t mention things about their past which they told you. It hurts a lot, it's like breaking someone's Trust.
While some people prefer to let the past be buried. They don't tell each other about their past, they believe what happens in the past stays there. It works for some relationships. Though in the long run the past might resurface and threaten such a relationship. This type of decision is dangerous but that is not to say it doesn't work for some.
Truly, not everyone is comfortable with talking about their darkest secrets. It can be quite embarrassing and since one isn't sure where the relationship is heading, it's expected of one to be scared of opening up. The probability of the other partner sharing your deepest secrets with others when the relationship is over is also there, hence the reason why most people do choose to remain silent about their past.
One of the ways to avoid a shady past is to live a pleasant today. Live life in such a way that, ten years from one when you look back at what you've done you won't have any regrets, instead it will be lessons you will forever value.
If you are one with one mistake or the other in the past, don't let that stop you from loving. There's someone out there who will love you with all your flaws and past. You deserve to be loved.

Sharing your darkest secrets with your partner can be embarrassing because they can use it against us and it hurts whenever they remind us of it.
