Listen to your parents.

Probably the only time I've said that.

Problem is, he's an ex- convict. He has done 3 years in jail for drug trafficking, criminal damage and possession of weapons.

Frankly, forget your future. This is just a big 'no thanks'.

Possession of weapons? Yeah, you probably won't live to reach your career goals.

Was the weapons possession a firearms or blade offence?

This is funny. Everyone is acting like they havent done a crime in their life?

Yeah that is so shocking. You would expect 17 year old A-level students to have criminal records.

Not everyone here is a 17 year old A level student.

I think it's wise to just move on.. Your feelings will fade but his criminal record is permanent.. I wouldn't trust someone who has commited such a serious crime, it's just not sensible to allow yourself to be vulnerable to a person like that. Slowly cut contact in a safe way and move on, you'll be dodging a bullet

Yea, he ****ed up, big time and he was in a better place. It would be so much easier to move on if I knew he wasn't a changed person trying to get his life back together.

I just feel if I drop him it will be a kick in the face to him when he's trying to put his past behind him.

Although my parents did say his past is his past and shouldn't impact my future. *

Love is a drug, don't become a victim of this drug he's trafficking.

Not all criminals are gonna drag you down. It depends on what he did. Stole a can of coke, not so bad. Murdered like 270895 people, yeah I'd listen to your parents...
