writes:I was just wondering, how much have you and your boyfriend/girlfriend talked about past relationships? Do you know a lot about their previous significant others, or barely anything at all?I just ask because with my current boyfriend, he has the mentality of "what's in the past is in the past" and never brings up ex-girlfriends, nor does he like me talking about my past boyfriends. I was just wondering if this is weird or not. He's not trying to hide anything from me because if I ask questions he gladly answers, it just seems that he prefers not to focus at all on the past.

 I think he wants to convey the right message: What's important is you and me, now. I have been happy to find some women who thought that way, too. And then, you see he's honest.
You're a lucky girl.

 I think it depends on the person, myself and my other half have had these discussions early on in our relationship, but now it never gets mentioned.
He is right to say the 'what is in the past is in the past' and sometimes i really do think it should stay there, because it has been know to cause insecurities in a relationship.
Take care.xx.
