Why You Shouldn’t Share Your Past with a Woman You’re Dating

I want to share something crucial for your dating success. It’s a simple rule, but trust me, it makes all the difference. Here it is: never, ever tell a woman you’re dating about your past. It sounds easy, right? But let’s dive into why this is so important.

Women don’t want to know about all the hardships, scars, and mistakes that made you who you are. They’re not interested in the journey—it’s the finished product they want. When a woman meets a man, she’s constantly looking to see if he’s complete, someone who’s strong, confident, and has his life together. If she starts hearing about your past struggles, she’ll start thinking you weren’t always the man she sees now. And that can seriously hurt her attraction.

Why Women Don’t Want to Know Your Past

Women want to feel safe and secure around a man. To them, that means being with someone who’s strong, stable, and focused. If you start sharing details about heartbreaks, losses, or moments of weakness, you risk losing that image. She may even use what you tell her against you in the future. Relationships can turn sour, and if you’ve let her into your past, she might bring it up later or use it to make you doubt yourself.

It’s human nature. She may not mean to, but once she knows certain things about you, it changes her perception. The more she thinks she has you figured out, the less intrigued she is. And guess what? Curiosity is what keeps her interested.

Keep Your Mystery

Think of yourself like a book. If she could read the whole story in one sitting, she’d move on. But if she has to figure you out, she’ll be more invested. The goal is for her to keep coming back, wanting to know more but never fully getting it all. That’s how you keep her curious and engaged.

Here’s a little story to help explain. A few years ago, I was dating this girl who seemed really interested in me. Things were great until she started asking more and more personal questions. At first, I answered. Then I realized what I was doing and quickly stopped. Why? Because the second you start revealing everything about yourself, you lose your edge. The curiosity dies. She knows your struggles, and suddenly, you’re not as intriguing.

Be the Man She Fell For

Remember, the man she was attracted to on day one? That’s the man she expects to see each time you’re together. She doesn’t want the backstory, and she definitely doesn’t want the vulnerability that comes with it. She wants the man who’s got it together—someone she can trust to lead without ever looking back.

So next time a woman starts prying, remember this: keep your past to yourself. Let her get to know you over time, bit by bit. The goal is for her to stay curious and stay interested. Never give her the full picture because, like I always say, the hotter the flame, the shorter the burn.

Remember, you attract what you are. Work on your internal value, and you’ll attract the right kind of woman into your life.

You are not a victim. You are a Headman.
