Anyone WITHOUT baggage must surely have thrown it off the Tallahatchee Bridge.

Well I would wear long pants and long sleeve shirt at first. Just so you can have a chance to experience him in person and see what it’s like to be in each other’s presence.
My daughter met a guy through an online site and eventually she learned he had not only ptsd but significant scars from being close to a bomb that went off. He is a vet and a really nice guy and other wise handsome. I dated a guy for a time who always wore long pants. After he got to know me he finally shared that he had been in a car accident and when he stepped out of the car he stepped in gasoline that quickly ignited severly burning both his legs. He had to have a lot of skin drafting and his legs were left severely scared Well he was a nice guy and otherwise good looking. Did not bother me. It was best for him to feel safe with me until he felt comfortable sharing. So I think it’s best to first see how it goes in person. Maybe make a date in a nearby park so you can have your dog with you. Most are choosing to socialize but safely in nearby parks. |

Well, I was not really thinking about you being ashamed tbh. It's actually good that you don't care and just want to have him see you for what you are. Again, I just love your honesty and tenacity seesaw. Not everyone can be tenacious like that, it's refreshing.

I think that is a good way to approach whatever is "truth/real" about you, actually say you are only interested in being "authentic" with him.
I guess, the scary is when the other person can't be honest and authentic. We can't do anything about that because it's the other person's choice or "lack of ability". |

Maybe he is afraid to share that he has some challenges?
