Would you definitely not date a man who had wrist scars from a suicide attempt 27 years ago?

I'm 50 and, very unfortunately, have wrist scars from a suicide attempt 27 years ago. I'm pretty well-adjusted now and attribute the attempt to a bad medicine reaction. I do take full responsibility.They cannot be removed. I'm terrified of dating and having a woman I might like see the scars. They send a terrible message. Anyone who has a choice would be turned off by a person who could even think of doing such a thing. Any advice?Would you definitely not date a man who had wrist scars from a suicide attempt 27 years ago?
The scars may be initially troubling to some people. However, if you found the RIGHT person, they would understand that it was something you overcame. The RIGHT person would be able to see that you've made progress in those 27 years and that, as you have said, you're ';well-adjusted'; now.





Everyone has skeletons in their closet... you just happen to have physical reminders of what's happened in your past.





When you find someone you're interested in, wait for a quiet moment when you can explain the situation in full.





Don't get discouraged... some people may be turned off, but when you find the right person they will accept who you are -- scars and all. Good luck!Would you definitely not date a man who had wrist scars from a suicide attempt 27 years ago?
You need to find someone that loves everything about you. You are a human being whose went through his share of pain, if a woman cant handle them than shes not for you. Its not a big deal and it has made you to be who you are today, find someone who appreciates that (:
shitt if ur not lik that no mor make up some crazie story like u were fishin off the coast of flordia.... hooked into a great white.. long story short the fukkerr jumped straight out of the water twords my face... so i blocked him with my forearm... those teeth wer sharp!
I know people who tried and now the most sane people I know...they just had some growing up to do and had some very bad things happen to them that made them feel less than human let alone worthy of life.





I think you should be confident and be yourself and let that speak for yourself. Your past is past and when people get to know you it is ok. Just like drug addicts and alcoholics can change...so can those that think life is not worth living..realize how beautiful it is and feel sorry they did what they did.





Your past does not dictate who you are....YOU DO. What you do now..what you feel about life and yourself...and how you have grown will show who you are.





People grow with life experience...and you know anyone who is 21...does not have the same thoughts, political attitudes, morals and values as those who have a lifetime of experience do. It changes....life changes us...





Go out ..date and have a good time. If someone asks..just say it was a bad time in your life and that is in the past and you are glad you are extremely happy that God gave you another chance at life to enjoy it.





Then just BE YOU! I think you will find...that what troubles us and what is so strong in our minds..is not necessary that in others. We put our fears out there and it won't matter as much to them...because the emotions about it are inside you.





Enjoy buddy...you deserve it.
