Ok, answer me this:

When was the correct time to tell her?

Was there ever, at any point, a time when that information would have been well received?

I’m guessing you’re having trouble answering that.

The fact is, people have pasts. And if you want to be with another person, those pasts are going to be there. And you both have to be okay with whatever happens to be in one another’s pasts.

No lie was ever told. Would the truth ever have been accepted? Or would that have been a dealbreaker no matter when you told her?

Sometimes there just isn’t a right answer.
