Why is it that people think they can change other people?

No I dont think they do realize that. People go into marriages alot thinking they can change someone and when they cant change them they use that for a reason to leave them even thought that single thing has been there for ever. God made everyone different if he'd wanted us to all be the same it would be a very boring world!!!

Most people don't. Most people hope for the best and think a little too optimistically when it comes to changing others. It's nothing but a waste of spent energy and frustration.

Often times, when someone needs to change, it's ourselves. By changing ourselves, things around us change. For example, if boy A* treats girl B* like crap, and she does nothing except attempt to change him, she gets no where and it continues. If she realizes she can only change herself and does so by by not accepting such treatment, etc. Boy A will either get a clue or he'll get lost <no worse for wear for her there.>

*Example only. This is not to say men treat women badly. Boy A and Girl B most definitely can be used interchangeably as people treat each other badly at times... no one gender does everything wrong, all of the time.

Why not find some1 that fits your want & needs. Changing some 1 is a pain & drama.

Unfortunately, no, most people DON'T realize that.

I presume this is a rhetorical question?

I dont know but it sure is annoying
