Actual confession incoming.
I confess that, if anything about your character's backstory is something I find ridiculous or implausible, then I am probably going to avoid any kind of in-depth RP with your character regarding their background. The result is that I am likely never going to have a deep and profound personal connection with your character, even if it would have made sense for that to happen in the context of our relationship.
So I guess this comes down to me being very critical of people's character backstories, maybe a little more than I should be. It's just because I actually do avoid situations or stories that don't have credibility in my eyes because they're harmful to my immersion. But it's definitely closed off some opportunities for me and caused me to alienate a few people.
(Also, I'm not proud of it. I think it's something I need to work on. That's why I consider it a confession.)
