Default I have a question about dating and scars. Can someone please help me?

I've had a problem all my life. I'm 25 years old and I've been self injuring myself since I was a child. I have greatly reduced the cutting due to medication and therapy. I quit for awhile and then started living with an abusive guy and the cutting was out of control. No one would ever guess. I come from a good family with a good income. We're the all american family. The thing is, there's a guy who I'm very interested in and he's interested in me. The scars are awful. They arent really raised but it looks purple all over my thigh. How can I explain to him what it's from without looking like a freak? I have practically stopped doing it. I've done it once this year as opposed to every day like I used to. When I tell him about this, should I worry that he won't want to see me?

Anyone who really cares for you will be willing to work through your issues with you, There might be a bit of shock when he first sees them, but you could warn him beforehand.
