Left with raised eyebrows

I was talking to a new friend over the weekend, to whom I've only known a short while, and she told me something that left me both dumbfounded and amazed.

Her husband of 8 years is a convicted sex offender, which of course happened years previous to her meeting and marrying him. And they have two children.

I've been thinking about this since .... can a person really change?

Would you marry a man who had to register as a sex offender for the rest of his life?
What do you tell the children?

She appears to have no concerns whatsoever with her man regarding trust ... she appears to believe that his sorted past has no reflections of who he is today.


Do you think a person can really change?

Or do you think in terms of .... once a (?) always a (?)

Is she out of her miiiiiind? How desperate can a woman get lol

And this is why I've been analyzing this .. is she out of her mind?

No, she isn't .. so why is this acceptable ?


I guess a person would only be out of thier mind if they knew this information before falling in love with him.

You have to think in terms of not knowing this ... he is the man you fell in love with .. not THAT man of his past. She loves him, and she doesn't seem to mind because that was his past, not his present.

Hmm wow,

Probably not unless he's been seriously rehabilitated. I heard that it can only change behavior tho, not necessarily " CURE" the person .

Well, I didn't ask her the details of the crime .... I was thoroughly so astounded that I was rendered speechless. I plan on talking to her about it once I formulate some thoughts other than ... WHAT THE FUCK

I am thinking, this chick needs a little bitch-slapping... for these reasons

1) 2 kids, knowing what she knows! what is she teaching the kids?
2) she is freely telling you something that she should be kinda tight-lipped about?

On a more realistic note, in the dude defence, I am thinking:

1) maybe is was an error...i.e. the person didn't say how old they were? Or like someone mentioned, he was young
2) it is the US, they are known to lock up way too much and too quickly

Details of the crime will help here...can you get us more juice, P? 😄
What? You guys know you want more juice 😛

Don't worry ... I plan on getting the juice 🙂

People are sick, you know .... because we want it to be excusable like the age thing for the teens .. and yet, we crave for the darkness of it, so we can go ..... eeeewwwww, wtf is she doing

Exactly ^ imagine us being on a jury for a similar trial
