Back ground checks?

In the technical world we live in, where we have the internet and information at our finger tips. How do you feel about doing back ground (criminal) checks before getting to serious with someone? Is ths acceptable or not?

I think that's being too nosey, myself. If you feel the need to run a background check on a potential dating partner, I question why you'd even consider dating them in the first place.

This is why getting to know someone is so important and not rushing into sex and a relationship. What's the hurry? Take your time and get to know them first.

Very true and very good points. However, anyone can be anybody to your face, when dating, people put up an act called the "Honey Moon" stage. Later on you have given your heart to the person and come to find out later they have a past of Domestic Violence, sex offender, drugs, murder etc. How would one respond later on, after you found out..

The day I find out that someone ran a background check on me is the day I realise that I'm dating a paranoid freak who doesn't trust me or respect my privacy. And that would be the last day I dated said paranoid freak.

I mean it's not like my prison tats don't give it away anyway!!! I just don't want to talk about it. The past is the past.
