I can't tell you about burying the bad, but I did want to say I understand what you're saying. I'm not in a relationship, but I can just see in other aspects of my life, with friends and family, how it's soooo hard for me to let them in/open up. I think living with an alcoholic, and all his games and chit, and all the stuff I had to hide from my family & friends for so long, has made me always feel like a burden or want to continue to hide stuff. It's very difficult to let people past the barrier we've built up through the years because of our STBXs.
I'd have to think it's going to take time. I'm interested to read other's responses.
I'm glad your health scare turned out fine. And I'm so glad your relationship is going well. You deserve it!! Keep in touch :)
