Is it a red flag if your partner watches a lot of true crime shows?

Question

Some of the true crime fans have to be absolute experts at murder, crime scene clean up, and hiding bodies by now. At what point do we as their partners start running? 🤔😅

I love true crime , but part of what I love is that I could never think of that stuff.

In Australia , we had very crocked cops at the highest level in the 80s , right up to the police commissioner , and the overriding PM in NSW , Rex ( buckets ) Jackson , this stuff and all the murders is fascinating to me , because I lived though it and had no idea. I love the Australian mini series " Blue Murder " and the life of Roger Rogerson , recently deceased.

Its fascinating stuff , nothing to worry about , we learn what happened.

And if anyone has not watched it , find the original " Blue Murder " - Australia

Roger Rogerson - Wow , he ran the state of NSW , policing wise , and set up , killed , and everything else in-between.

The UK one is nothing to do with the Australian series.

As a true crime fan, I'm an expert in everything that gets you caught. I know exactly what not to do. Doesn't mean I know what to do though. I always say that I think I could get away with murder, but that's with the caveat that I would never commit a murder unless there was absolutely no conceivable way possible that it could ever be traced back to me, and getting those circumstances to be true is just about impossible, there's so much luck and coincidence involved.

So, uh, you're probably alright. But just to be safe, don't piss off your true crime fan partner, and don't take long walks into the middle of the woods alone, telling no one but you pissed off true crime fan partner.

I love true crime but it's low key is scary some of the things I've learned from watching those show. It might be a red flag 😂

Summeroflove · Answer

Not really. It depends. Sometimes I wonder if sone people have the fantasy of killing their partner though.

TenderFantasy · Answer

Real news scares me as well, if not more. At least it's not dragged out like those type of shows. They get to the point quicker haha. But I understand, a lot of people love suspense and so do I but I feel the news is sadder and scarier. I don't know, I just do, or maybe JUST as scary.

It's just good TV is all. That being said... If they start to buy questionable items that seem random but in reality could actually reproduce a crime scene you may have seen or heard about, it might be time to think about moving out of the country for a bit 🤷

Not a problem for me

I also sometimes watch them so we would have additional topics for discussion, lol...

As a psychology major, I have a living interest in such shows... as long as they are more facts than fiction, lol

ShadezMcgee · Answer

Not entirely. But I would definitely be watching her closely with the amount she consumes. My guess is she is studying to commit the perfect crime.

I think a lot of them programs can affect one's mind. My cousin tells me about watching them programs based on paranormal and ghost. It could affect one's home or housing, but then again, hard to say?
