here and now is the most important but how they got to here can help you understand the person better

The here and now...however you must know a little about it so you know why they react to certain things that happen in your own relationship. Might send up a red flag if you knew.

It is very important, dear Tina. Not really all the details, but that they exist and of what type... and how it has affected them.

A man I know watched a child die years ago. I did not ask the details, he will tell me if he wants me to know. I just know it still haunts him.

Well it would let me know more about him. Depends on whatstageof the relationship we are in also if he feels the need to tell me so I understand him better.

Yep, makes it easier to forgive some behaviors too. As long as they don't live in the past.

The here and now is fine... but your past is what builds or destroys your character. Some people are strong and some weak. Its nice to know where they are and how they handle things. It gives you guidelines to live by and or acceptance of.... No two people are alike.

Its helpful to know the road your partner has traveled and how it has intersected with your own.

The past can't be changed but it has shaped us into the people we are today and unless you understand the road someone has walked how are you supposed to share the journey?

Of course you need to know about someone's past to truly understand them. I do not need chapter and verse all at once. If the details do not fill out over time then we aren't properly communicating, are we?
