I am dating a guy who is very sweet and kind to me. He treats me good. Problem is...he has a criminal record from when he was 19 for selling/possession of marijuana. He is now 30 years old. That was his only offense. He has went to college and graduated in pharmacy. He works now at a major pharmacy making big money and has his life together. We met at my relative's church where he was a guest and I was also a guest on the same day. We were introduced to each other at church by his family and my family. His family knows of his record, mine don't. We have been dating for the past 6 1/2 months now and he tells me he would love for me to be his wife. He has tried to relocate to my city, but problem is he has been denied job and for apartments where I live due to his record from when he was 19. He has a job now where he lives which is 14 hours away from me. He told me he had a very very hard time getting a job where he lives because of the past record and is now trying to get it expunged. I am wondering if I should continue with him. I don't want to give up on him and throw what we have away. He treats me very good. I am afraid my family will judge him for his past if they were to ever find out. I was married before to an abusive, cheater and I am wondering if I should stay single again or continue with the man I am seeing. My ex husband is pleading for me to come back. I don't know if he is truly sincere. We have two chilrden together and he used to deny them. Now he says he wants to be in their lives. I have so much pondering on my mind and don't know which direction to take.
