This is a tough one. Never been in a situation where an ex-con tried to get at me, so all my answers are hypothetical.



I keep an open-mind at all times. I would have to say that it would depend on his reason for jail time. Also assuming they were honest and up-front about it too. I would have to take this person at face value. People do reform though. Given the chance they can turn their life around.



I can't assume that every guy who has been in prison is a bad guy but again not every guy out there is the good one. I believe the worst ones are the ones that haven't been caught yet.



Seriously, though, it would really depend on how much we have in common in terms of a shared direction, shared values, and goals that compliment each other, and untimately if we clicked. If they fit the bill,I would probably say yes, after time enough to truly know the person.
