So, the girl I'm seeing, who rocks hard. Invited me over tonight and made me a kick ass dinner. After we were sitting there all cuddled up, and I was three glasses of hooch in and I didn't even think about what I was saying. I asked, "Do you have any baggage?" Now, all of this is related to the last girlfriend. And it's something I'm wary of. She was kind of taken aback by it. But, handled it well, she said, "Without hearing anything about you, why did you ask me that." All I said was, "I've just dated some girls with issues before and am a bit on edge about it." Then called myself stupid and apoligized for being a twerp. She seemed cool with it and the evening went on okay enough.
Yikes, hope I didn't fuck this up!

Chances are you're fine. You can just make it up to her next time. We all say random crap when there's alcohol involved. :)

I think perhaps that if you like this girl, you should consider the fact that you have your own; otherwise you wouldn't have asked her the question. Maybe she needs to know that some baggage, you can carry. Just a thought, if not for this girl then for the next.

3. You didn't. Just not perhaps the best. |

You might say you are wary. That's OK.
When asked why, you might just elaborate enough to say that you've been burned.
Don't tell a true story or "bare you soul".
Make sure you put the discussion back on her. Deflect.
"You ever been burned?"... that kind of thing.
You seem to have done well, but make sure that you remain a bit aloof and a bit "in charge".
This is hard to do, but if you don't, you'll be out the door before you can scoop up the wine you brought over.

4. Plus, I look at it this way |
|
If she can't handle something like that.... I would blow her fucking mind. Cause that's the tip of the iceberg when it comes to strange questions.

5. It could work in your favor. |

You showed her that you have no issue with communication.
Don't worry. :hug:
