for a girl like me who has a past, how many Christian guys would be willing to date her even if she is not pure and has a past addiction problem?

If you asked God's forgiveness for your sins, then you are forgiven in God's sight and NO ONE should judge you for your past. You have nothing to be concerned about. You will of course want to share this with the person you eventually meet if you feel He is the one God is sending to you... just remember that if the person is sent by God, it won't matter to him.
Pray to God and ask Him to send you the Christian man that He would have you to meet, and that this man would love you unconditionally and with all respect, just as God does.
Below are some excellent scripture promises about sin, and how the Lord forgives our sins and will forget them and not remind you of them again. He does not want any of us to live in condemnation after we ask for forgiveness. Your past is forgiven if you asked for forgiveness, therefore, you can go on with your life knowing God loves you for who you are right now.
"He will again have compassion on us; He will tread our iniquities under foot. Yes, Thou wilt cast all their sins into the depths of the sea". Micah 7:19
"I am He who blots out your transgressions for my own sake, and I will not remember your sins". Isaiah 43.25
"And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more". Hebrews 10:17
"In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of His grace which He lavished upon us". Ephesians 1.7-8
"Hide thy face from my sins, and blot out all my iniquities. Create in me a clean heart, O God, and put a new and right spirit within me". Psalms 51.9-10
"If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness". 1 John 1:9
Jesus loves you and only wants the best for you. I pray He sends you a loving Christian man. I believe that He will if you are patient to wait for the one who also loves Jesus Christ as you do.
"Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart". Psalm 37:4

Old things pass away and behold All things become new! now I believe that when you become a Christian your past is behind you. (BC before Christ) I would accept you and trust is a factor here because it's not me trusting you, it's you trusting the Lord to move you ahead and grow. don't we all have a past anyway? maybe not like your but none the less we have all sinned and fallen short of the Glory. hope this helps. wanna date?

A true christian, doesn't hold your past against you. Forgive and forget the errors of the past as long as he or she is willing to attempt to be a better person.

A true Christian man can be very forgiving, it still takes alot of searching to find the right mate. It sounds like you are on the right track though.

I am not a christian and I am not a guy and I shouldn't answer but... if a guy dosen't accept you for who you are or are trying to be he is not worth the time of day!

I would. I think you assume that christians don't make mistakes. What is religion for then? Church is like a Hospital it can help those who are healthy stay healthy but it specializes in helping those who are struggling or sick get better.

If you have repented and turn to Christ you are a new person. Why should we call unclean, one who God has made clean.
I would have no problem.
