Don't try to change people: accept their nature or move on

Fabrizio Rausa argues strongly against attempting to change or fix a partner's lifestyle, habits, or personality. His view is that people have a nature built into them, and trying to correct that nature through lectures, disgust, or logical arguments is not only ineffective but actively counterproductive. If you are dating someone whose habits do not align with what you want long-term, the correct move is not to reform them but to simply not date that type of person in the first place. Trying to fix someone is not a viable strategy because, as he puts it, the nature will always reassert itself. The constructive alternative is to learn from the experience and seek out someone whose nature already matches what you are looking for.
