Are you attracted to “bad boys?” Should you think twice before dating someone with a criminal background? The answer seems pretty obvious until we consider certain factors. What if they are reformed? What if they did their time and share that they’ve made changes and feel remorse? What if they get out of prison and demonstrate behavioral change? People can make serious mistakes and change for the better, right? Of course! But what if they’re so good at lying and scheming you’d never know it, until it’s too late? In this episode, we explore the controversial topic of dating felons. Our very special return guest, Chanel (Spiritual Whistleblower), shares her personal experience and insights into the risks and hard lessons involved in dating someone who has a criminal record. Get unique perspectives from three DV survivors who have lived experience falling in love with convicts. And of course, you’ll hear from our two experts in criminal justice mental health and psychology to get a better understanding of what to consider before engaging in intimate relationships with felons. Tune in to gain a better understanding of the complexities of dating this intriguing population, the risks, and the potential consequences of doing so.
