Can you date a murderer? (Page 2)

Question

I’ve been dating this guy for 2 weeks and we both truly get along. He’s sweet and adorable with me, but yesterday he confessed that he spent 8 years in a prison, he was 15 when he was sentenced, and now he’s 25, so it’s been 2 years that he got out from the prison. I wanted to break up with him, but it turns out that his victime was a pedophile, that he killed because of how hardly he beated him, since he was too strong. This pedophile raped his neighbor’s daughter, when she was only 5 years old, and he told me that he couldn’t control himself, because of what this pervert did to that kid. Other than that, he followed his studies in jail, he have a good job and he’s a very polite nice caring man. So deep inside I feel so guilty to love him despite that he committed a crime, but I even meet the parents and this girl who’s now a teenager, and they told me that they will always be thankful to him but that they feel bad that he ended in a jail, so what he told me was the truth since he even showed me the paper news of when that happened , he also swear that he never harmed anyone beside this pedophile. Should I give him a chance?

I think you should. If you feel good around him, if you consider he treats you right, give him a chance. He was only honnest after all. He could keep hiding this from you and with a little luck you could never knew, but he did told you.
And tbh to me it dosen t seem like a criminal, and more like a punnisher of that disgusting creature who got just what he deserved.

If you date someone who you know killed someone and that you maybe next for him to kill then you that is up to you but that is you being desperate enough to date some one even from prison

You should do your own research instead of just accepting his side of the story.

Keyarose · Answer

Nope, I wouldn't even give that a try. I'll be too afraid that I'll make him extremely mad and he'll murder me. No thanks. I don't want any parts.

I'd say do some serious back ground checking to make sure he's telling the truth about what he did time for

LBelle · Answer

Don’t feel bad if things don’t work out because of this, it’s natural. However I think you should give him a chance, he’s missed out on so much and so I think you should give him that chance at love

LuWe22 · Answer

Nope. He was noble to protect the kid but killing him over that was not his duty. Every criminal deserve a trial even when he is a pedophile. Also his reasoning he lost control what makes sure he will never lose control again?

If he had killed someone for reasons like you stated then I’d stay with him, but if he killed someone because he’s a violent person, like fighting or just murdering someone because they can then no.

I wouldn’t date a murderer because that will scare me 🙈

TonyBologna25 · Answer

I wouldn’t. He’s going to surprise you one day. At that point you’ll be too emotionally invested to get out.

Melshmallow046 · Answer

Given the circumstances, I would. If the murder wasn't justifiable, then no.

Jeetin · Answer

It depends. Sounds like this dude did the world a service. That said, who knows if he is being honest?

Anonymous · Answer

He sounds protective as all hell, he'd probably murder your daughter's boyfriend or something if they ever argued so I don't know, I'd give him a chance though, he was 15 and had good intentions, he probably grew up and got more reasonable

If the info is accurate... well let me put it this way: If I had been on the jury he would not have been convicted.

codycccccccccc · Answer

No he could have handled the situation much better and wasn't smart enough to get away with it

ziongurl · Answer

And what if all he told you about the story were lies?

PrettyRegular · Answer

Depends. Your guy sounds like a nice person, but maybe he went a bit too far killing that pedophile, but it's not a disaster.

MarkellaScorpio01 · Answer

I think so and I’d like to Say I understand why. But I never been their. I give shot if something feels weird you tell him you need a break.

megaman242 · Answer

Depends on the situation, sometimes people die by accident. A 15 year old don't always know what's best, a 25 years how ever knows better.
