‪Dear CRF‬,
“Marriage is the goal for some people and not for others. With that being said, would you date someone knowing that they are looking for a level of companionship (not marriage) with the hopes of changing their mind? Or just let it go? And if you do enter in said relationship, do you get mad at that person because, they aren’t willing to change?”

RESPONSE
You’ll be facing an uphill battle if you choose someone whose life goals don’t match yours. If you want to be married date those who would like to be married. If you want children date those who also want children. If you want to travel the world, I think you get my point. Don’t go into a relationship trying to change your mate. That hardly, if ever, works. What you can assure yourself, if you take that route, is a lot of frustration and possibly time wasted. And if that ends up being the outcome, you only have yourself to blame.
