If your boyfriend has a tattoo across his stomach saying, "Thug For Life," you can probably be sure he isn't going to change his behavior. If your boyfriend has done time for violent crime, he's probably not. the person to invite into your home with your little children. If your girlfriend boasts about her ability to "bust you down to the white meat," boy, get out of that house. If your boyfriend is in a gang, or sells drugs, of uses drugs, you have put yourself in harm's way.
