The reason why it could be scary dating someone who was recently divorced or broken up with is because their ex might be crazy/insane. They might seek out revenge and take out their anger on you.
Yes, it doesn’t matter to me. 😇
No, how scary. 😱

You’ve met the love of your life but their ex is crazy, unpredictable and scary. Would you still date them?
Doesn't matter. If she tries anything and I get hurt, rest assured vengeance will come her way. Not from me, but I have a few crazy unpredictable friends who are scary when one of their friends get hurt.
If I ever got in a Situationship with a girl with a crazy ex, I would firstly reflect upon whether I am crazy too. People tend to be attracted too the same people over and over again.
I would have cause for concern. And, I would realize birds of a feather flock together. And, I would have to pass up on that 🦇 💩 Crazy GRL sex 😢
Nah one crazy dude was enough for me. I mean yes I've dated other nutcases but not in a row. I've been dating 2009-2022 and i’d say i just had coo coo bfs in 2009 (he continued to come around through 2015), 2019, and 2022. So see, not every year lol
This sounds like unfinished business on the part of the current partner.
If a bad relationship is OVER, this means no ex can threaten that person or anyone who becomes involved with them. Why would a man or woman allow an ex to interfere with their life? Tolerating crazy behavior means it will continue. It's also a terrible example for children to witness.
I say, get a restraining order, and if the behavior persists, take this person to court: as many times as is necessary. Have them arrested if they violate the order. People who behave in this manner are mentally disturbed and, literally, dangerous. There's a reason they're "exes." Court ordered therapy can often help them.
And if this person you're with WILL NOT do everything in their power to prevent this person from ruining their and your life, you need to make THEM your "ex." Don't risk yourself.
I think I just saw a horror game about this exact concept. A guy was going to his girlfriend's for Christmas, only to find that her house had been taken over by his crazy ex who was some kind of psychotic and made a habit of threatening his friends and family throughout their entire relationship until he was able to get away from her. He had to cut off contact completely from his family and former life just to have some kind of semblence of peace, but she still found him and still tried to convince him she was the one he wanted despite already having bought an engagement ring for his new girlfriend.
If someone's dealt with crazy before, it's not easy to get away from it. I can understand how people might be afraid but just because you have a bad past doesn't mean you don't deserve happiness with someone new.
Wound up in a situation like this. Dated this girl, she had an abusive ex. Suburban kid, pretended to be from the hood. Used to beat on her and shit. He found me on messenger, started saying he’ll beat me tf up, he’ll kill me, all types of shit. All I said is “See you soon.” He kept talking shit calling me pussy, saying I won’t slide, etc.
She still had his address. She had knew what his car looked like. Showed me it. He didn’t know what my car looked like.
And for legal reasons, I did absolutely nothing to him. But whoever did, left his ass sleeping in the walmart parking lot, shattered his phone and busted his cars windows. Again, I had nothing to do with it.
I am not about that. Had an instance when I was seeing a girl who I liked, but what I didn't know was her roommate was her ex. Apparently the guy called her at work and asked if I showed up (worked at a bar) and was looking for me.
No thanks. Don't need an unhinged psycho stalking or hunting me.
So, are you looking for someone who has never been in a relationship? I mean, literally everyone has an ex. And if you two broke up, you’ll be each other’s ex. Unless you mean if the person jumps right into the dating scene after ending their previous relationship.

Why is your pfp anonymous but your profile is not. I see Sasha but it is anonymous and I click on your profile and you come out
I have a hard time believing the perfect woman for me would have chosen a crazy ex, but for the sake of argument, how crazy? Stalker-level crazy? I have contacts with the local PD, County Sheriff, FBI, CA DOJ, and US DOJ. Aryan Nation-level crazy? I'll pass. They'll off you and your family and friends just because.
Nope. I gots to go. If he has a restraining order against her then i might give it a go but if he's soaking up her crazy ass attention then nah i dont want him
I dont love anyone THAT much anymore. In high school yes. Now a days no. He should be throwing shit to protect himself 🤣 If he was my fiance or husband, yes. But just a boyfriend? Nope
No I wouldn’t, because if the ex is that big a part of his life that I even know her personality, that means they’re still too close and I wouldn’t want to get involved.
not voting since my opinion does not fall under the scope of the votable anwers. no i would not date, not for the percieved "scary" part, just because i refuse to participate in that aspect of life. found it to be worthless.
