Thanks, Tisha.

Any suggestions on how to approach this topic with him?? I really don't know - my instinct tells me to not divulge everything right now, and to tell him I've had some really good relationships and then some really awful ones... and that yes, my father hadn't been the best to me when I was a kid. Maybe I don't need to tell him just yet that my father abused me... my gut tells me to hold off on that.
