You can't change somebody, people decides to change on there own. but sometimes your atitude toward life and things around you may be the cause their change.

It is not up to anyone but the person themselves to change anything about themselves.

We are who we are others just need to learn to accept that fact!

Its unwise to think you can change anyone.

Be a good influence and a good example, but don't criticize them, nag them, threaten them, manipulate them, play mind games with them etc.

That just makes you annoying.

You can only change children and animals....adult humans never change. Trying to change them is a waste of time.

Why go through all the trouble of trying to change somebody?

Just find somebody else.

If they are a baby and really need to be changed and there's nobody else around you can bribe to do it, then I guess you don't have much choice.

Otherwise, (edit = Yes...otherwise, yes. Unwise to change someone).

You can try to manipulate them into what you think is "right" for them but in the end the only one who can make the changes is them.

Manipulation is bad news for both parties involved.

If you meet someone who says they have some changes to make in their lives, let them do it and leave them to it. Do not try to "assist" because your assistance may be their down fall. You can be the voice of support when they need someone to talk to but otherwise best to let them shine on their own.

Sometimes changes come without people even being aware that there is a change being made.

We change sometime when the betterment of ourselves leads to the betterment of another.

Faith changes.

Love changes.

Hope changes.

it sounds like you expect a partner to make many compromises for you,doing things they dont wanto do but doing them because you askd nicely. That is not changing sm1 and at sometime they wil get frustratd not being alowd2be themselvs ina relationshp. Accept peopl and love then04who they are. You cannot change them.
