Should I be more up front about having been in a toxic situation most of my life?

I’m really really slow to initiate anything because I don’t have ANY confidence. I’m slowly building it up, but the reason why I don’t have confidence is because I was abused by family for over 15 years and bullied in hs (36 now).

I went on a couple of dates with someone last year but I was so deeply ashamed of myself I barely tried to do anything even though she threw herself at me.

I’ve made a lot of progress this year despite how shit it’s been. I’ve lost weight and got a job. Now I just need to unfuck my mindset on dating/relationships. What should I do?
