Don’t Try To Change A Man

“A woman gets married thinking the man will change and a man gets married thinking the woman WON’T change. They’re both wrong.”

It seems to be pretty universal, according to most men and many women, that once a relationship reaches marriage (or close to it), the woman starts to attempt to mold her man into the man she thinks she wants. Or, more accurately, the man she wanted in the first place. This begs the question, why didn’t she choose a man she wanted instead of taking on the project of trying to build him? Does she think it’s “nurturing”?

To a man, the constant efforts of his wife to change things about him looks and feels more like control and nagging. And either one of these will ultimately destroy a marriage.

If the man is a real man who’s comfortable with who he is, flaws or not, he’ll probably want to end it eventually, once he’s figured out it’s not going to stop and he’s had enough. If he’s the kind of guy who will change just because his wife wants him to, the irony is she’s more likely to leave him! A woman wants a man who will stand up for himself, even as she tries to get him to lay down and roll over for her.

Either way, it’s a lose-lose proposition. If you catch yourself nagging him, stop and ask yourself: do you want him around or not?

Now, as to the part about the man being wrong in thinking the woman won’t change……we’re not going to go there now. :-)
