would you turn them in to the authorities. if for instance one day you are watching the news and they are releasing details about the suspect, and these bore an uncanny resemblence to your loved ones traits. would you confront them with this knowledge, or would you quietly move out and then let the authorities know? do you you think that you would know if you were hooked up with a rapist or pscyho?

I'd have to be sure be pretty darn sure of myself to turn someone I loved into the authorities. I probably would not go just on a sketch. I would keep track of where my man was when these rapes occurred. I would start searching the home & vehicle for evidence. I really would not turn in someone I loved simply based on those details. The composite drawings usually resemble many people. Are you going thru this? I hope this is a hypothetical question.

If my lover was a psychopath and I was sure they committed a violent crime, I would turn them over to the police. Just tell the police everything I knew and let them handle it. I wouldn't confront my lover because they would probably become violent.
If I were dating a psychopath I would probably know, but I might just ignore the signs. It's easy to overlook some signals if you want to care about someone. But at some point you have to face the facts. The crappy thing about psychopaths is that they're good at allaying your concerns. They can pretend to be whatever they need to be to gain your trust and use you.

it is true, it is easy to overlook some things, either because you do not want it to be true, or you just genuinely do not see it. i would like to think that i would know, but psychos can be very charming and pull the wool over one's eyes.

Hi, mama_bear. I would not confront him. I would blow his cover, then. I will not expose him just alone. I will get the authorities involved. There is no way that I will approach him about it. If I had some clues that were obvious, I would know if I was dating a rapist or not. I have to have me some sound evidence on this one. I don't want to assume or blame him. But, if I found out that he was a rapist, we would no longer be together that is for sure.
