4. Honesty
Let’s be clear: this doesn’t mean that she should know about that great Ninja Turtle theft of the 2nd grade. She won’t care. Don’t open up about every stupid thing done in high school either. That’ll just scare her.
But just like her partners would want her to be honest about past relationships, she expects the same. This also means being honest about feelings – yes, feelings – all of the time. This may mean coming clean as to why the neighbor’s kid has a striking resemblance to her new partner. Be upfront, be direct, and be with her as a result.
