Pastor and Life Coach, Kofi Adjei has shared some advantages and disadvantages of revealing one’s past to a partner.
According to the pastor, if two people who are ready to be with each other meet and they speak about their past, it can make or unmake their relationship.
Speaking with Justice Boakye Danquah on e.TV Ghana’s In Bed With Adwen he said, “sharing your past with your partner helps both of you to be aware of what you are up against”.
According to him, the human body has been made in such a way that, it reacts automatically the moment you see someone you know or someone you have been with in the past.

“So if you’ve already told your partner about your past, it doesn’t become an issue when he sees or hears about it. But if you haven’t, it begins to create problems in your relationship”, he said.
Kofi Adjei added, “sharing your past with your partner makes them aware of what they are up against. It helps them decide if they want to continue the relationship or not”.
Again he added that sometimes, you can lose your partner because of the past or it might give your partner the wrong impression of you because only a few people can manage things like that very well.
“Most people wouldn’t see it as your past but might see it as a fault and leave you”.
