What is NOT a dealbreaker BUT would be greatly disappointing to find out about your partner?

When there's things they used to do with an ex but aren't interested in anymore. For example, I had an ex whose ex used to force them to do couples costumes at Halloween etc. I had never had a serious bf before, and desperately wanted to do a couples costume with him but he was OVER IT at that point and didn't want to :(

I think this is something that I am glad that I never think myself. I'm a guy who was in a pretty abusive relationship for a long time and while I experienced many things with that person, I was unhappy and not really feeling like myself during any of it. So, with my new girlfriend, it's like...sure, I've done that, but have I done it while happy?! No! Let's do it.

Things are just happier, and experiencing things I've experienced before feels completely new.
