Would you trust someone who had previously had a restraining order?

It happened 14 years ago. Physically violent to an ex partner - no prison sentence but a restraining order placed on him.

Seems to have turned his life around .

I am not dating this person. Just curious for the responses.

No never.

Absolutely not.

Does she have any other children?

Yes, a boy and a girl. Teenager/pre teen age

Yeah sure. Assuming I'd had a lobotomy.

Not a chance

No.

No way

Can I ask what difference that makes @JustCleaningtheBBQ?

I'd be curious how she found out. Apologies if you mentioned that. Because her getting pregnant in three months (the man has two other children, he knows how babies are made) and then him telling her very much sounds like trapping her them 'warning' her to be well-behaved.

I've known too many men who tell women about their pasts to scare them and warn them. It's a threat.

If she got pregnant and she just found out, and he'd had a serious conversation about it, including all the reasons it wouldn't happen again, that would be almost a small bit reassuring. But not very.
