Hello.. My name is Tina and I was just wondering if there was anyone else out there like myself?
I met my new guy, when the guy I was with come home and screwed up.. My new guy wrote to the guy I was seeing and I opened it and wrote him back and told him all the junk that had happened since this jerk came home.

The letter he wrote to this jerk touched my heart and it wasnt addressed to me so I know that it was no game, he had no way of knowing what was going on at all..

I answered it and told him what was going on.. I didnt hear anything from him for a while, he then wrote me back and told me how sorry he was that it had happened..

I then in turn, didnt write back either, no way that I wanted involved with another man , and surely not another inmate....

Time passed and he wrote back and then I wrote back and I applied to go and see him and the rest is history..

I have never been with a more caring and loving man in my life, I see or find no game in him, he doesnt ask anything of me and he keeps me grounded..We even talk about my feelings about the jerk that hurt me so bad.....

So if I had to do it all over again, I would if I knew that it would lead me to Risco..............

Now I am waiting for someone to help me change this screen name.. I hate it.......

I worried alot in the beginning about being called a
Prison Groupie, or a Prison Ho.....

I am way over that now, and so I was just wondering if there are any of you out there that met your love through another realtionship with an inmate......

Now could someone help me change this screen name?

For I am Tatsbaby Nomore.....

but will always be Risco's Angel.....

Blessings

Tina

I did too but it is a really long story. Kind of the same way that happened to you. Except through phone calls not letters.

Omg, I Thought I Was The Only One, Except My Situation Was 1,000 Times Worst,loooooooong Story 2 But I Dont Regret It

I dont know if it was a 1,000 times worst like yours.. but mine was pretty bad..
you can read about it in the drug and achol forum
"what I have to do now" its a 5 star story.. and is either under my old scren name Tatsbaby or My new one Risco's Angel

either way, I would love to hear other stories such as my own...

I tried looking for your story but I am having trouble finding it so can you let me know where its at I have been in that situation just recently. Only thing is i met my new man threw a friends boyfriend and I went to see him for the first time a year ago. we were only friends in the beginning and then this year in august he asked me to be his lady. After my ex got out of prison I picked him up from the bus stop and brought him to my house let him stay over and the next day I gave him a ride to the bus stop and gave him money for the bus to go see his parole officer. I never heard from him ever again.I didnt even want to start anymore relationship with another inmate ever again. But here i am once again in another prison relationship with an inmate and its going good so far. I do help out my man when he needs It and I do go visit him and I get 3ways from him and which I am paying my friend for accepting the collect calls. I write him every so often but its really hard cuz he doesnt really like to write much. Hes been on lockdown so I reallly havent had no calls from him in 11 days as of today.I really do miss hearing his sexy voice on the phone so I am hoping he will be calling me really soon.:o my new man didnt write my ex I was visiting my new man when he was in county and my x was is prison. I was with my x when he got out and then my new man and i continued writing and seeing each other and then things got serious. I didnt think we would ever be more than friends its funny how things turn out in the end:love:

I met my husband through another inmate. However that inmate and myself strictly had a pen pal relationship. It was nothing more and never could of been for reasons I don't wish to go into. The pen pal had sent me his buddies (my husband now) picture to get copies made for him. So, I knew what he looked like to begin with. He also sent money to get his Mother flowers for Mother's Day and I thought that was sweet.

Time passed and the pen pal relationship ended and I wrote my husband and told him that I had broke it off, but if there was anything I could do for him to let me know. He wrote me back and asked if I would consider writing him. That was all it took.

I wasn't looking for love the first time as I just enjoy writing and thought hmm... this would be different. The second time I still was not looking for love, but what can I say that love bug bit and bit hard and we were married the following year.

By the way, you have only to pick out a new screen name and let a Moderator of your choice know what the name is you want to stay with and it will be bounced upstairs and taken care of.

All my best to you and yours.

Nope no other inmate in my story just that misdialed phone call...

Risco's Angel ~ Love the new name!

I met my husband as well through my Ex whom could never stay out of prison. Well himSam my husband and my ex grew up in the same hood and when my ex came home they stayed in touch but i soon had to put my ex ass out and told my now husband dont call my house anymore because he wouldnt be there and he didnt for a while and then one day he call 3 way and wanted to know how the baby and i were doing and the rest is history.

ME!! My husband iwas my former b/f's workout partner :D :D

No, my friend is the only penpal in prison I have ever had.

I met Jesse through my cousins friend. He knew Jesse a long time ago and asked me to help look him up to see where he was now and all. I did and as we talked I thought I would write him just to let him know someone outside thought about him, not having any clue where he was in life in which when I wrote I explained all that. We've been writing since and getting closer and closer. I can't imagine not having him in my life now. :)

I met my guy when my ex broke up with me. My ex broke things off in a really abrupt way so I was worried. I wrote to one of his friends to ask that he keep an eye out for him. He wrote me back to tell me not to worry about him, that he would make sure he was all right. We started writing as friends for a few months, then things progressed from there. I have asked him if my ex has ever said anything about us being together and if he has any problems with it but he says no. It's kinda like breaking the golden rule of not dating your ex's friends but for some reason it doesn't feel wrong this time.

Tina, Love That New Name Glad To Here The "happy Happy" In Your Voice Again Good Thinks Happen To Great People And Youer One Of Those Great People Best Wishes God Bless Ya Girl

Oh my gosh I thought I was the only one that experience such a romance of a whirlwind. My is kinda of differnt from you guys which I have a struggle with. Because as GG stated it started with a phone call actually a collect phone call that my ex had made but it was the wrong number and me and my ex were like friends I was just giving him word of encouragment and I went to see him and I feel and love. Well as you know he is an ex he got out and completely became brand new it was if I didn't know him. I said the same thing I wasn't going to date anyone in prison. Girls I just want you guys to know I went through alot of emotional, pyschological things when I broke up with him I went through the crying spells and went through being numb with guys I met I went through this dam near 6 months or so. So I always stayed intouch with his mom so here goes the twist the mother wanted me to write the brother which buy the way is locked up. My ex and brother was in the same prison. So I wrote the brother in behalf of the mother which when I wrote it was nothing more of seeing how he was doing and to take care and that his mother was okay and that she loves him and etc etc. Do you not know I have feel for the brother now which I thought was so unethical and so wrong. But my guy and I have talked about his brother which we are open it doesn't stop us as to how we feel about one another but Guys I'm so scared and I feel like alot of times I don't know what to do. I do love him but I'm so scared but he is so like different from my ex. Sorry so long I had to get this off my chest lord knows my intentions was not to ever fall for my ex's brother.

i Met My Soon To Be Husband Thru My Step Dad They Were Locked Up In The Same Prison And I Was Their Visiting My Step Dad And My Hubby Was Visiting His Mom And Our Eyes Met And That Was It I Asked For His # And We Have Been A Couple Since Then Getting Married In June I Am So Excited I Love Him So Much Who Would Of Thought I Would Of Found Mr Right Behinds Bars??? But I Am So Happy That I Met Him....:) True Love**

Personally, I'm not a woman to pick up with friends or the like of the man I am with once that man becomes an ex. I do, however, believe that a woman's destiny could certainly lie in her ex's friend or pal. Therefore, I wish you all the best in your relationships because yeah, I do believe your destiny lies in your guy if this is how you got together. :o

yes i used to be engaged to another inmate before JR and i got together but both men turned into animals i knew the first guy from the outside world and he had asked me to to write JR and then we fell in love or so i thought we did now im single because none of the men were true to me the first one i was with i lasted with him almost 5 yrs and the other almost 2 and i am being much more careful in everything i do like this ever again im so not gonna step into something that can bitw me back in any way again cuz it hurts too much and i know what i need to do now to save my heart from breaking again Thanks for listening

Take a number, I met my sweetie through another inmate too. I was trying to remember how it really started and one of the posts sparked a memory. My story is a long one too so here's the short version. I was involved with an inmate. One time he was thrown in the dungeon and had my current sweetie call me. Everybody knew the other was a rat b*st*rd as did I. At any rate, he called me a couple of times on behalf of the other and then I believe he asked if he could write to me. One thing led to another and within six months or so we were thick as thieves. Much heartache to this story and I would be happy to send it to anyone who cares to read it. PM me with your e-mail. I'm happy to say, 11 years later we reconnected and so far so good. He'll be released in May 2007.

I continue to find more and more people on PTO everyday and am most grateful to have you all in my life. Thank you all for sharing and listening.

Take care.

I met Sly through a friend of mine who me and him had a lil something but nothing major we were mostly just friends and had been since we were 13 anyway when he got locked up we had been kinda talking for about a year off and on. When he felt I was falling off he gave my address to Sly. But Sly waited awhile to write me anyway I was upset at first but out of anger and thinking Sly was hot in his pic I wrote back, haha now we are getting married!
