Can love change people?

I think this is a case to case basis. I know of a man who has changed a lot when he married the woman he loved. This man was a drunkard, a gambler and a thief when he was not yet married. But to our surprise, he changed a lot when he married. He said, he loved his wife very much that is why he changed totally. This man has become an asset to his family up to the time he passed away. I wish all people are like him, but no it doesn't happen to all people. Some people change only for a short time and then go back to their former selves. Others change a little but still others do not change at all.

Well, when you fall in love with with somebody, you will show your best side to him/her. Because you love your parter so much and all you concern is about him/her, so you won't let any bad thing damage your relationship. All your bad habits could be change by yourself.

Yes, you are right. You don't want your love one to be disappointed so you always show your best.

It sure did change me :) for the better and not because I want to please him, but because I have learned to accept people the way he accepts me the good thing is he didn't want to change me, it just so happens that way and I'm glad I did

When one is in love everything is heaven and only the good side of him is shown. When the love thinned out he will revert to his old self. A leopard can't change his spots.

Humans have rational mind and capable of change whether for good or bad the only problem that we encounter is, are we open to give them a chance for a chance? Specially to those with the same situation like in your case. Those who came from prison terms. We are so adamant in change but that's the only way we go forward in our life. Everyone has it's own potential, most of them just need some emotional and family support. Someone that they could cling on in times of hardships and struggles.
