This mistaken humanistic view of
reality is quite like the story of The Frog and the Scorpion — BUT FOR
REAL!!!!!
The mistaken belief that a one’s love and understanding can
change another person’
s personality and character. A person who has demonstrably driven several people crazy while in tempestuous toxic relationships. A more contemporary approach to relationships and relating that ignores traditional conventional wisdoms like:
*** Once a cheater always a cheater.
*** you can’t turn a whore into a house
wife.
*** Peter Pan will never grow up.
*** People do not
change.
*** If they will do it with you; they will do it to you.
*** If they mistreat a waiter or waitress they will mistreat you.
Ignoring the wisdom and experience of an entire culture, the optimistic
lover proclaims: “I can fix him/her/them”.
Understanding that this is the 21st century, this statement has been updated to include the possibility of chosen pronouns.
1) How many women have entered into extramarital relationships with Herschel Walker thinking, “I can
fix him”?
2) How many men have entered into a relationship with one of the
Kardashian women thinking, “I can fix her”?
3) How many women have entered into a relationship with Ellen DeGenerous thinking, “I can fix them”?
4) My powers of love and understanding or so
strong that I can fix her/him/them.
