I wouldn’t / couldn’t do that. It is not my place to change someone else’s behavior. Their behavior, good or bad, is their personality. It would be presumptuous, even arrogant, of me to try and change them.

Nothing. I love my people for all their faults and virtues. And if I can change them, they can change me. Some of the things they might consider flaws could be things I like about being me.

Why not? That’s what people do in a relationship right? They can be successful only if they are able to mould themselves with other person and vice versa. Reason of failure of most of them is rigidity in any format. I don’t know where question of arrogance arise if I’m thinking good for my close pal / partner. It doesn’t mean I am flawless. It can be as simple as your s/o to start exercising regularly which will help him / her in the long run.

I’d make my mom realise she doesn’t need to yell when she speaks. We are all usually just several meters away from her, not on the other part of the village.

Matt’s already perfect, in my eyes.
