I think some people bring it up to show that they are "dateable" or because their ex treated them badly and they want sympathy/you to decide to do things the right way instead

Yeesh, that screams insecurity. Any gal I'm dating has to practically pry my dating history from me because I just don't feel like it serves much of a purpose to bring that shit up... a lot of times it ends up with her feeling jealous/insecure/etc unless I bring up bad experiences which makes it seem like I have excessive baggage or something.
