In light of all that I would say your trust issues are not misplaced . To me they sound like a warning signal to slow down.
In the one relationship, there was a space of 2 years, and then I went back, then called things off after 6 months. Before that, the relationship was 8 years.
That particular relationship was great for a while. But that relationship ended for good in 2016. Prior to that, there was a more abusive relationship that was a really long time ago that hurt me a lot more than the other relationship. That was the one I was a few years and very difficult to explain.

This new relationship is with someone I met online. I really thought I was in a healthier place, but now things are resurfacing. He has been treating me well though.
Thanks for this!
