Alright, give me the definition of baggage because almost everyone seems to have it.

Memories that weigh you down, heavily, as
you travel from relationship to relationship.

People who have mental and emotional problems, who have trouble DEALING with life's challenges. Everyone has challenges but not everyone needs to have baggage if they are STRONG.

Issues that follow you thru your life preventing you from truly reaching your potential, whether in relationships, employment, or socially. They may be unresolved hurts, grudges, trauma, or pain. Or it may be personal experiences that while maybe not that bad in the minds of others, altered your thinking and causes you to place that same result as the probable course of action for anyone you deal with.

Very well said here.

May I add, some baggage is actually a person...someone who the other person hasn't figured out is hurting them more than helping, be it a "buddy" or an ex....not talking about a mother/father of their child, but a needy ex who always seems to "need" them for this or that.
