Are there any women here pls all joking aside, who could seriously consider "dating" a 50 yr old inmate doing time for a domestic violence felony?

If no, why? If yes, why?

If not would you consider dating an inmate of a less serious conviction?

What would a woman see in an arrangement w such drastic restrictions, among other things?

How would anybody date someone in jail? Do they allow that now? :-)


No I would not - a tiger doesn't change his stripes unless he has a "come to Jesus" moment.

Yes. A man who has a felony conviction for domestic violence will have many women to choose from when he gets out of prison, and likely will have women who want to be his "pen pal" in prison if he is attractive and charming.

God knows why. But it's true.

^^^^^Truth. I know a woman who just married a man who is in prison. He was convicted of manslaughter and given a 20 year sentence. He's now down to four years left. She specifically was targeting prisoners as a pen pal. She said when she met him for the first time on her first visitation, she said it was love at first sight.

Psychologists says it's damaged women who seek out inmates.

Quote:
The real crux of the whole thing is that these are all women who are damaged. In their earlier lives they’ve been abused either by their parents, their fathers, their first husbands, their boyfriends, whatever. They’ve been sexually abused, psychologically, emotionally abused. These are women who've been hurt. And when you’re in a relationship with a man in prison. He’s in prison. He’s not going to hurt you. He can’t hurt you. So you’re always in a state of control because you’re the one who’s on the outside. You’re free. You go in and you visit him. You can decide whether to accept his collect phone calls. So in a way, even though cons are very manipulative—that’s why we call them con men and they are manipulative with the women—it’s still up to the woman to decide how far she wants to go and she knows she can't be hurt. And every single woman I interviewed had been abused in the past and that's what I found out. That was the big secret.
