He has told me that he really likes me and wants me to be his girlfriend.
I would like to be exclusive as well, yet have avoided it for one reason.
In my past, I suffered from depression and was prescribed meds. Zoloft and Seroquel.
The meds have alleviated my depression as well as my anxiety and life is much manageable now than it ever has been.
We haven't discussed mental illness, use of medication to treat it, etc. so I do not know how he personally feels about these meds. I know some people have issues with taking medication for depression.
Should I tell him now? Wait? Or just never disclose to him? Thx Everyone. Have an awesome week!~
Those people have no idea what depression is, and they're best kept out of your life.
You will have to tell him at some stage - the fact that you're on medication will affect many aspects of your life (e.g. your reproductive life). Now is a good time as any, I'd say better than further into the relationship, as it won't hurt as much to cut your losses if he turns out to be a jerk who's prejudiced against mentally ill people and people who take medication for depression.
