    Most definitely! Because people do not change at their core. A person's past tells you who they are as a person. When someone hides their past I know it's because they're trying to hide the truth about themselves.

    i mean if you have a past like being abusive or being toxic you obviously have to fix that, i know i would not want to date a toxic person. if its really bad like the dude raped someone b4 then obvi it matters u can't trust him.

    Depends, if it’s an unresolved issue in the relationship yes. If it’s something about an ex then possibly. It all just depends on what happened.

    Sure it matters, it tells you something about someone's character and what kind of life they have been leading. And if you are trying to hide your body count, why is that?

      I don't sleep around or have too much sexual experience and I am okay with that and want similar values. A lot of girls still have feelings for their ex or have bad non-sexual past, like getting arrested, drug addicts, sex workers, only fans... I have no judgment on them but don't want them for my personal life
