Baggage.

The term people use when they need to avoid answering a certain question or situation; an excuse to make someone feel bad for them.

"Sorry baby, you don't want anything to do with me, I've got some baggage."

Go fuck yourself. Seriously.

Everyone has some sort of baggage that they carry around with them, like that capuchin monkey in Indiana Jones. Except, this one is annoying as fuck, and constantly screams in your ears, digging into the back of your neck, and always eats your dates... poisoned or not. Your "baggage" is no worse than mine or that little old man on the bench over there. At least, when you use your baggage for such a petty ploy as an excuse to get out of a situation.

Get out there! Try new things! Don't let your baggage bring you down. And don't use it as an excuse. Be a man, and break people the old fashioned way.
