Try and identify WHY you are doing it. Because in a fresh, new relationship, there is not really room for all the past baggage.
The last thing a women you have just met wants to hear, is about your past dating experiences (or lack thereof), or your past with women in general.
You have to focus on the "here and now" and not compare or make excuses for what and who you are.
Enjoy the person you are trying to know, live in the moment with the person you are spending time with and enjoy you being you and learning what is her being her.
Our past experiences can shape, help, hinder, make us cringe, make us smile, but they have no bearing on who you are with, in that moment, for that time.
Stop sharing until you are at a point in the relationship that all the questions can be asked and answered. Until then, stop talking and enjoy who you have chosen to spend the current time with.

This excellent advice reads like poetry.
