Yes you should tell him... it may color how you react to the new bf and he has a right to know it's not him but your "baggage" causing any issues.

You could tell him that your last relationship was a bad one. If you do not feel comfortable discussing it with him just yet, don't elaborate. If you feel close enough to him, the best thing is to sit down and try to discuss it with him.
I hope this helps...take care =)

Hiyaaaa,
Yep I recommend you tell him because you don't wanna start your relationship full of lies kinda thing well technically your not telling a lie but you know it's secrets keeping. Some secrets are best for keeping to yourself only but this one you should tell your current boyfriend otherwise things can happen.
So long as you're honest with him and you can trust and confide him then you should tell him otherwise you shouldn't if you can't trust him.
Definitely tell your friends if you haven't because they can protect you. You gotta have some kind of protection because what if your ex lashes out again? Not good it's kinda for your own safety too.
Hope my advice helps!
Good luck!
Lots of love,
Ima FreAk!
