Love After Lockup: People Want to Know — How and Why?

Love After Lockup spoilers reveal, according to The Things, how these inmates hook up and fall for each other despite many being incarcerated at the time. If you’ve ever watched the show and sat and wondered how on earth these people even meet, let alone spend enough time together to fall in love and, you wouldn’t be alone.

The fact is, there are many ways for inmates to connect with people in the free world. One of the chief ways these days is through dating sites.

Love After Lockup Has Been a Thing Long Before the Show

Surprisingly, it is a way for many of these incarcerated people to meet the one they might one day marry. Often, they’re just meeting people who’ll send them money — they are criminals — but every once in a while, two will meet and fall in love.

The trend reportedly started in the early aughts and has risen in popularity due, in part, to Love After Lockup. People are intrigued — we all want to know more about it, how it can happen, and often why anyone would want it to.

Communication is Difficult in Prison

Probably since the first prison was built, the incarcerated have been communicating with the outside world at every opportunity — to family, to friends, heck, even to pen pals they’ve never met. Inmates are allowed a certain amount of phone time but they’re not free.

In fact, phone calls in prison are fairly expensive and time is limited so it’s naturally puzzling to try and imagine how an inmate would meet someone let alone decide to hook up with them.

Everyone Needs Love

Inmates of course can meet other inmates in prison who know someone, maybe even a family member, to hook up with a fellow inmate. Sometimes family on the outside ultimately find someone wanting to hook up with an inmate.

Letters eventually become phone calls and they can cost an inmate as much as 6 bucks for just 15 minutes. Soon enough, the inmate will begin receiving money on his books for phone calls and commissary. One thing often leads to another and the next thing you know, when the inmate is released, that special someone will be waiting for them on the outside. Don’t knock it. Everyone needs love.

Why Do People Want to Date Inmates?

Meet-An-Inmate has been a thing since 1998 and they reportedly have a wide variety of options. These sites put people together with inmates from all over the United States. The sites have standard fees and profiles just like any other dating site. But why, you may ask, do these people seek to find love with criminals?

Well, for one thing — the money. In Love After Lockup, inmates don’t get paid, but their partners do. And, as we said before, everyone needs love – even the damaged and cast out. And many people can be inclined to “rescue” broken birds and wild things.
