Should the Past Effect the Future?

Meeting someone that you would like to get serious with is like a mission. There are just so much things you have to consider.

One thing i think about a lot is the PAST. Not how many people the person slept with, (cause its 2009 and everyone has a lil whore in them!) or how many kids the person had in previous relationships. Those are things that can be worked out or talked about to better the relationship; if it were to cause a problem. However, some things just cant be taken back!

STD's and INCARCERATION; what do you think about that? What if you met someone and they did 10 years in jail for a crime they are aware that they committed; such as dealing drugs or assaulting or killing someone? What if you met someone that had a STD before you met them? Would you feel safe and secure? Knowing that this person has a history of diseases that are sickly and deadly; or a past of violence!!

Me personally, i try really hard not to be judgemental. As far as STD's goes, i don't think that everyone is 100 with their partner. That's sad, but at the same time its true. That's why their is such a high rate of diseases among young adults. Also, if that was the case the shit wouldn't be spreading so rapidly! For the incarceration, it depends on the situation. You cant try to holla at me with domestic charges, cause how do i know you wont try to whoop my ass. Like i said earlier i take everything in to consideration.

I met a guy that's 24yrs old fresh outta jail for Manslaughter charges from a teenager. That's a severe situation. He explained the situation and we spoke for a while (still a lot more speaking to do!) and i really got to talk to him. His head was in a place so much more beyond his age its not even funny. Hours on end of conversation wit this guy and i feel like we on the same page to the T! When i speak he finishes my sentences! When i think something, he says it out loud. Its so ironic to meet someone like that that you click so well with. Our connection is something that i can see going far, BUT what about the past?

All i can do is see if HIS future is something that can be bright. I'm sure he would have a very hard time getting his feet wet because of his past situation. I'm not gonna give up on him though. If i see someone that is true to their word, and come back from certain circumstances, and handle his business; FUCK IT! Whats the difference from someone that doesn't have a past anyway. A man is a man!
