" "but i think that i can change his ways"

I tried to change men. I tried for many years in my misperceptions. I got screwed over so many times. I finally found after many years of suffering, I can only change myself. Why would I want a man I can't trust, and would hurt me? I'm too busy observing and working on the CHANGE, my Higher Power has given to me. I don't give myself that much credit any longer. I can only work on the Change in my perceptions. Which, most of my life have been confused and wrong and I've needed to eschew!

(only my opinion of myself) Thanks for your POST it reminds me of why I'm here. "

" When I read your post I immediately think "YES you should leave him!" - b/c it reminds me of me, thinking I could change my husband. As was said previously, we can only change ourselves, and that can start with truly believing that you deserve better. ((Hugs)) "
