I'm an example of the opposite of what I'm about to say. My relationships have all been based on shitty foundations. One had a boyfriend and she cheated on him with me, another other fucked someone else because she thought I wasn't interested, another dated three best friends one after the other before I came around, etc. etc.
But I believe that a shitty foundation can be overcome if you can acknowledge a few things, some of which might be the fact that the foundation was just a mix of unfortunate circumstances and that nobody knew what was around the corner. And if you can acknowledge that from a certain point, after you've met and fallen in love, that you can start a new life together and accept that those circumstances before were exceptional and out of the ordinary.
