How would you know if they have a record? Run your own background check? What’s happened to dating these days?🤷🏼♂️
It would depend on what they have done I had this guy who wanted to get to know more about me who had done some serious time for armed robbery he was someone I didn't feel comfortable being involved with
Not to all people. Go watch Love after Lock Up, go look at the type of men celebrities date (like Nicki Minaj's husband) - theblast.com/.../nicki-minaj-kenny-petty-rape-details-criminal-complaint
Some people love to date criminals.
If it’s like a DUI or some petty offense, then I can give that person a pass but if it’s like something very bad then no
Not necessarily. It all depends on a bunch of things, like the nature of the offense, how long ago that was, and what are the circumstances.
Depends on the crime. If she went to jail for killing men she's dated then I'd... probably not believe her and get murdered but yeah i don't think it would change too but is does depend on the crime.
It depends on the charge. I won't date a druggy or a murderer.
Yes super turn off unless it was a small crime and isn’t affecting their lives.
No way, if anything it makes it more interesting to me
Very much a dealbreaker. Criminals become criminals by being malicious, irresponsible or just too stupid to appreciate that actions have consequences. I won't accept that kind of trouble.
That's like saying all criminals are bad people, which isn't true
I mean, I suppose it depends on exactly what for, but generally, yes, it's a big turn off.
Depends on what kind of crime they committed, and how long ago it was.
In the UK you have to have a criminal records check if you are going to be working with vulnerable people hospitals, care homes, sheltered accommodation, etc.
What is the crime? Getting arrested at a protest rally against a worthy cause? No.
Soliciting sex from a minor? Busted with crack cocaine? Counterfeiting? Yes. I wouldn't date that person.
Depends what record is. Known people having a record for dumb tint things that are kinda silly.
mmmm interesting. I say if you're getting into dating then it might be a turn off to that person cause they are still a stranger to you, so if you tell them or they find out then they might be a little upset and not trust you anymore.
Well that depends on if they were honest about it or not and what the criminal record was for. If it was something small and they didn't mind opening up about it when that conversation came up then sure
CLEARLY... but I guess it all depends in the end. Did they learn a valuable lesson or not? Trust the bust.
Depend on what the record is for and if they are honest about it, if it has the potential to effect me.
If she had a criminal record for indecent exposure it would be a turn-on.
