How do you deal with emotional baggage from a previous relationship?

If you have emotional baggage from a previous relationship, how does that affect your outlook on dating?

I have deep scars, I've lost my self esteem so it's hard to get a date 17
I don't have emotional baggage, but I'm not necessarily faithful 3
I have deep scars, and now I'm gonna do them how i was done! 4

    I think you have to be single long enough that you do finally get over the last person and then you're in a position to move on and start something new.

  • Doesnt it depend if you feel guilty?

    Depends if you really did do that to her sister? or brother?

    I don't get the "faithful" thing... why would you be faithful to a past someone if you had no emotional baggage from them at all!
