Anyone get confused by this? "Don't expect to change your partner" and "you need to be able to change for your relationship" are both strands of advice that I hear quite a bit.
But…is this not at least somewhat contradictory? At the end of the day, are people supposed to change for their partners or not? Is the solution to be willing to change for your partner, but not expect the same in return? Could this not lead to unhealthy/unbalanced relationships?
When is expecting relationships to change people considered healthy?
