Unfortunately sceptical. Even when you try not to be, it's hard to not carry old baggage with you.

Always sceptical, and guess what? I get hurt again expecting the worst, as being sceptical make me a bit apprehensive and gals like confidence. I wish I was capable of treating new relationships as if I was falling in love for the first time. But I persoanlly think that's impossible.

Everyone brings a certain amount of 'baggage' in to a relationship. To deny that you've been hurt before is like lying. I went through a traumatic divorce 3 years ago and will always be sceptical about meeting/ finding a partner.

Iwouldn't so much say i go in sceptical more so wary as i tend to pick up similar partners my first was a cheat my second violent both controlling. I am currently with a new man following a 10yr violent relationship and am fortunate that he is so much more mature and understanding of my insecurities. you can find love anyone can if i can! just trust your instincts that is all i will say and good luck!We tend to attract partners that are similar in nature to our most dominant parent this is a proven psychological fact the answer is to break the chain and remember that beauty is in the eye of the beholder not all beautiful people on the outside are beautiful inside!

It's really hard NOT to be sceptical...especially after you have been majorly hurt, it's only a normal reaction. You just have to be open to meeting new people and then be cautious as to how they react towards you....it's always best to be careful.....I mean, you don't want to put yourself in any potentially hurtful situations if you can help it. I love meeting new people, whether that be friends or more but I have learned that no matter how close to someone you may be, there is always that possibility that they could hurt you....I have lost several good friends because of hurtful things that they have said and done repeatedly, over and over again...even after I asked them to stop....I finally refused to put myself in those same positions because I was allowing them to walk all over me.....just remember this...no matter whether you are talking an intimate relationship, a freindship or even family situations.....
Good Luck to you!

Everyone deserves a chance in life. I wouldn't say treat that person as though you have been hurt before and don't put a shield up as though your pushing them away and don't want to let them get close. i would say just always be cautious and prepare yourself for the good and the bad so that way if you do get hurt in the new relationship you will be able to handle it better than you would have before.

Rather than the word sceptical, I think the word "realistic" is better...if you've been hurt before you are bound to remain wary the next time. The thing is though to try and trust someone until they prove you wrong, rather than mistrusting them from the outset otherwise you're just doomed.

Well unfortunately skeptical. I got out of a really long term relationship, almost 8 months ago. We were together for five years and married one of those years. It took awhile to get over that, I dated occassionally, but I wasn't looking for anything serious. But I just met the right guy and it has been great ever since!

even if you havent been hurt you should be sceptical but not as a so much show to them but behind closed doors, you gotta jump and remember he isnt or she isnt the one who hurt you, give them a chance dont try to sabatash all the time you will find loosen up a lil it can actually be a good time but also never be in a hurry to jump in as welll
