So far he hasn't seen my scars yet and I am kinda fretting over what to say when he does

If he really cares about you it won’t change how he feels towards you and if he does then you really
Do deserve better.
Hugs
I’m glad you don’t anymore xx

I guess ask yourself how you would react to seeing him with similar scars. I’d imagine you’d understand.
He’s not going to expect you to be perfect and if he cares about you, he’ll be ready to accept you as you are.

He's been so great about your mental health so far. I am confident he will be understanding and want to know what they mean rather than tell you what they mean.

If I was dating someone as lovely as you, it wouldn't make me feel any differently. Battle scars baby, you're tough and you fought.

Do you like him and trust him enough ? If you do,just be honest. He should accept you as you are. The past is the past.

That should be enough 🫂
