No, unless he went there after(obviously certain charges I couldn't deal with)

What she said. If I knew them before, and it wasn't a violent charge....maybe. But I wouldn't start dating them if they were already in prison.

I wouldn't date anyone I had to be away from for extremely long periods of time, especially if I had to worry about their life/safety during that time. That includes people in the military, police officers, and felons.

If I was already dating them, yes.

If I didn't know them, I was single, and the crime wasn't for something I was highly against (animal abuse, child abuse or rape) then yes.

If I didn't know them, I was single and it was a crime I was highly against, then definitely not.

Only under certain situations, but I wouldn't start out dating someone that was ALREADY in jail or prison.

Anyone I date has to have a clean record. It just makes me wonder why they were ever in a situation where they could be put in jail. Unless it is an extremely stupid reason (and the judge needs to be fired), it's a giant no-no.

No. With the field I'm going into and getting a career in, this wouldn't look very good. I have standards for who I date and not having a record is one of them.

Jail and Prison are two different things. Jail is where you do short stays (usually less than one year) and prison is for the long term people. If you are going to prison, you did something to get you there. Jail can be something stupid (like public intoxication) and only holding you for a few days or even hours. I would date someone who has been to jail, but most likely NOT prison. It would really depend on the crime. But I know that most Jail's and Prison's are over crowded, so those with small time crimes (the ones I could deal with) would be offered rehab, anger management, other classes, probation, or house arrest over doing time. It would depend on what they were arrested for, if I was with them first. I wouldn't date someone who was in there when I meant them. My hubby has been arrested before. I have no problem with this. He never had to serve time because the charges were all dropped.

To each its own really, my sons dad was in prision for 3 years and I stuck by him every day he was there only to break it off a month after he got out. My mom is married to a man who has life without parole. Its whatever your ok with I think.

If I knew them or were dating them before they went to prison, and depending on the charge.

If I was in love with someone, and then they went to jail or prison. I might provide support and love. I wouldn't date someone that's already in jail/prison though.

Depends on what they're in jail or prison for
If we were dating before
If they are getting out
If I believe they're guilty

It really depends on the situation. I would never start dating someone who was in jail, but if I had a partner who went to jail afterward for certain crimes, yes. If I found out my partner was a pedophile and went to jail, definitely not. Theft to pay our bills? of course I would stay if I loved them and they weren't going to be there for the rest of our lives.

I don't see what the prison industrial complex has to do with dating. People are put in jail for all kinds of unjust reasons, but this "justice system" we have is more concerned about sentences than the degree of wrongdoing. Nobody is perfect.

I tend to stick to honest people with integrity. I've never had to worry about this. I have turned in an ex for abuse and I'm not keen on dating another abuser again.

Depends on the reason, how long they'd be there, and how well I knew them beforehand. If we have two dates and then you get life for assault? Hell no. If we've been together for years and you're in for a month for, idk, stealing out of necessity? Of course.

I think it all depends on the situation. I would have to know them prior and the length of the sentence/the crime itself would definitely play a factor in my decision.
