Unfortunately, the large-scale political and economic transformations taking place in our state are accompanied by aggravation of social contradictions and contribute to the growth of confrontation, brutality and aggression in various forms of interpersonal interaction, in particular the commission of crimes against the person and his/her property, while the peasant requires to look at the person as an individual who is a participant of social relations, and, meanwhile, has its own unique individual characteristics and internal (subjective) features.
The aim of the article is to conduct a theoretical analysis of the victim of a crime, to which led the deviant relations of the victim with the criminal.

The defining feature of the victim and the offender in the «crimes of relationships»is the existence of a relationship between them that has led to the victimization of one subject and the criminalization of another.
Conclusion. The victim of the «crime of relationships»is an individual who, as a result of or in the course of his/her relationship with the criminal, has been directly, or indirectly, harmed physically, morally or materially.
The defining sign of the victim, who was harmed as a result of, or on condition of the relationships with the criminal, is the existence between them exactly those relationships that led to his/her victimization.
