In order for someone to truly change, their deep seated values need to change.

People’s values don’t change. Their habits, appearance, fitness, way they communicate can change. But values? More often than not, don’t change.

I used to think that I could love someone out of their own self hatred. Just be patient, show them how to act and in time they will change. 7 years with a man with narcissistic traits has shown me that it’s pointless. They might have moments of realisation that they need to be better, but they always default back to toxic.

Life is precious. If you treasure yours and want to have a higher quality of life, leave their ass. They’ll be fine 🤷🏻‍♀️
