Ponzoli Posted November 7, 2007 Share Posted November 7, 2007 Ladies, if you find out that a guy has a recent (within past 3 years) misdemeanor criminal conviction, does this automatically disqualify him as a potential romantic interest? To be more specific, let's make it clear that the offense for which he plead guilty had a victim (that is to say it was not a vice crime like simple drug possession, prostitution, etc.) and he was 25 when he was convicted (28 now). Deal breaker? Link to post Share on other sites
amaysngrace Posted November 7, 2007 Share Posted November 7, 2007 I wouldn't mention it to anybody ever because not only is he not a law-abiding citizen, he was dumb enough to get caught! Link to post Share on other sites
curiousnycgirl Posted November 7, 2007 Share Posted November 7, 2007 I wouldn't mention it to anybody ever because not only is he not a law-abiding citizen, he was dumb enough to get caught! OMG that is too funny! The answer to your question is very dependent on the woman. Some women will find it a turn on (ie the dangerous guy) others will feel it is a deal breaker. Then there are all the women in between who may say it depends on the crime, etc. Sorry to be so vague - but different strokes for different folks. (btw for me it would probably be a deal breaker) Link to post Share on other sites
Blue Eyed Brain Posted November 7, 2007 Share Posted November 7, 2007 I would not continue the relationship. That's me. Link to post Share on other sites
Lauriebell82 Posted November 7, 2007 Share Posted November 7, 2007 Personally, I wouldn't get involved with anyone who had a criminal record. I'm sure other women would, but its just not something I would do. Link to post Share on other sites
jcster Posted November 7, 2007 Share Posted November 7, 2007 I think it would depend on the crime and the circumstances, and whether or not I thought the person would do it again (or something worse). Link to post Share on other sites
Star Gazer Posted November 7, 2007 Share Posted November 7, 2007 If the crime had an actual victim, no, I wouldn't date him. Link to post Share on other sites
