When should I tell him?
Hi so I have never had a real boyfriend before except for online cuz I've been isolated for a long as I can remember with homeschool but I'm 18 now and met this guy irl and we have been in the talking stage for almost 2 weeks
Now and it's going great but idk when I should tell him one of my thighs is covered in scares I don't plan to get rid of them and some guys in past have said it's a deal breaker

It sounds like you’re feeling a mix of excitement and anxiety about this new connection, and it’s completely understandable to have concerns about how to share something personal with him. The fact that you’re considering when and how to talk about your scars shows that you’re being thoughtful and honest about your feelings.
When it comes to sharing something as personal as your scars, it’s important to do so in a way that feels right for you. It might help to wait until you feel a deeper level of trust and comfort in the relationship. This allows both of you to build a stronger connection and ensures that the conversation happens when you feel more secure and ready.
Remember, your scars are part of your story and do not define your worth or who you are as a person. They are a part of your journey, and someone who truly cares about you will appreciate you for who you are, not just for what you look like.
It might be helpful to think about how you want to frame the conversation. When you choose to share, approach it in a way that feels natural to you, and remember that it’s okay to express how you feel about it. The right person will respect and understand you, and your openness will likely strengthen the bond between you.
In the meantime, focus on enjoying the connection you’re building and being kind to yourself. You deserve to be seen and valued for the entirety of who you are.
