Beauty & the Beast

As women, we are taught from a young age that we can change a man. I listen to Beauty and the Beast (one of my favorite movies as a child) and go back to the time that I danced around my parents living room, occasionally bumping into the coffee table, imagining my beast swirling me around the room. I believed the fairy tail that the beautiful unusual girl could take the time to tame the beast and cause him to fall in love with her. Essentaily, that a woman can change a man.

I've had two beasts in my life. The first didn't even pretend to be any different. The second claimed to be changed but still proved to be the same man. You cannot change a man. You can, sometimes, bring the best out of him and make him desire to change.
