Need advice fast!
Reddit, I am in need of your help. I, 24/F, have a date tonight with an old friend, 27/M, who I have been going out with for a little bit now, about two and a half weeks. We've gone out together probably five or six times already, and I am wondering when I should bring up a sensitive topic regarding my body and personal history. I had a period when I was in my mid teens where I made a mess of the skin on my stomach due to some unfortunate choices. I am no longer in that dark place, but it's now an ugly mess of sc@rs, and I feel like that's something that should be brought up with someone who may see it before seeing it happens, so it's not a shock or off-putting.
Do I bring it up tonight or wait a bit longer, and how do I explain it without it sounding like trauma dumping?
