Bill,
That statement of mine, had the typical male-female relationship in
mind, and was slyly intended to be humorous: "If only my husband (or
wife) would change her ways, wouldn't we both be happier?"
It is easier to complain about the other's behaviors than to retraining
our ourselves to adapt to them.

ED,
It's very obvious that you try your best not to answer questions asked
of you,
and usually respond with another question; so if you think I haven't
noticed
you're wrong.
I, however, do respond when asked a question - even if it's just to say
'I don't
know'. In this case, however, I do know how to answer.
You stated in an earlier post that you thought people want to change the
actions
of others so they could be 'happier' - or something to that effect.
Isn't that
why you want to change your own actions? If so, what's the difference in
wanting to change YOUR actions and wanting to change OTHERS' actions?
I'm asking YOU another(actually the same)question.
...Bill!
