Do you think anyone who has lied or manipulated in a previous relationship will ever change in another one?

I guess it depends on the kind of person they are. Some people are different with different people and some people treat everyone the same. Also someone that admits their past mistakes has a better chance of changing than someone who won’t ever admit to wrongdoing and puts all the blame on everyone but themselves. Someone like that, it’s doubtful they’ll change. The first step to bettering one’s self is to admit what needs to be better🤷‍♀️

This is absolutist thinking and not healthy. If you keep judging people by past instances and expecting them to be identical going forward, you'll burn all relationships.

Ok so what if the person blamed you for their lies and manipulation and never apologized once nor showed any empathy during it.

[AmandaYVR]

Why would they blame you for what they did in their past relationship?
Do you mean they still blame that other person that they were with previously, for their own manipulations? I don't know. Not enough info.

Can people quit smoking?


Can people quit drinking?



Yes, but it will take a powerful drive and reason to.


It will require them to become a new person. It will take a major perspective shift. They will need some strong reason and no longer be the kind of person that does those things anymore.


They will need a change of heart and a new identity.


So, yes it’s possible. But it won’t be easy.

There’s always the potential for someone to change, but it has to be for the right person.
