Question

Would you still be friends with some1 if you found out they had a restraining order placed by their exspouse?

Answer 1

sure, but if you're sleeping with that person, and since the seed of doubt has been placed in your mind already...you may find yourself CONSTANTLY looking for negative actions from your "friend" which could prematurly ruin a relationship. A platonic friendship could survive this.

Answer 2

NEVER ever believe on surface news. Get the details and judge for yourself. Example. I found out a guy I dated for 6 months had a criminal case in court for beating his 15 year old daughter. I asked him about it and he had a good reason for doing so, as an ultimate punishment to a disobedient, rebellious child who lived with the Grand mom and was trying to disrespect them both. I investigated on my own and found him to be truthful and continued to date him. He was never violent with me; however, he did make threats when angered, so I stopped seeing him. You decide.

Answer 3

Yes I would.  If that person feels he or she needs to have a restraining order,  to protect thyself.   I wouldn't let it bother me.  Unless the one they have against.  Is very dangerous and might hurt me for being near them.

Answer 4

doesn't have anything to do with the friendship, i would ask for details if you really wanted to know

Answer 5

possibly: it would depend upon the circumstances

Answer 6

I don't know. I would wonder if that person was like obsessive or something, and wonder if it would come back to haunt me. Depending on the circumstances of the restraining order, probably not. But I would like to know the story before making that call.

Answer 7

Without a doubt. It does not effect me. During a divorce or separation there are a lot of hurt feelings.

Answer 8

yes, i will b frnds wt some2 if i cn

Answer 9

If I found out that my friend had a restraining order on their ex spouse I would think that they had a good reason. Usually my friends aren't crazy people who are paranoid. Hopefully your friend had a good reason, and if you are a good friend, you won't ask or pry unless they want to tell you about it.

Answer 10

Sure.. If I knew the person well and knew what they were capable of. People are spiteful and the oder could have been placed out of anger.... We never know what's going on in people's relationships..

Answer 11

I'd be wary.  Try to find out more, that's public information.

Answer 12

Maybe. Many people lie to the court to get them.

Answer 13

yeah...why not? What does it have to do with you and the friendship?
