Yes, people can change. I have seen many examples, but they are the only ones that can change themself, plus they have to really want to do it. My dad is a very good example! When he was young he stayed in alot of trouble, was on drugs bad, dranked alot..etc Then my mamaw moved him to Tennessee, he met my mom and he has been a changed man since! He is a very good man, couldn't ask for any better. He raised me right, and I knew right from wrong. I am 28 years old and I have NEVER done any kind of illegal drugs. I have never even smoked pot and all my friends did it, and done it around me. I knew what drugs can to people. My dad told me stories, plus I had a boyfriend that struggled with it everyday. I tried to help him, but I finally realized he had to want to help himself first. So, yes... people can change.  |

People can change. I, myself, made changes for the better as I got older. I know several people who are ex alcoholics and ex drug users who got clean and are now getting their degrees...some even are getting their Ph.D's. It can happen...but do be careful just the same.  |

i honestly believe people can change. my husband, Monte, and i have been through ALOT. we were married young. i was 19 he was 18. he was a BIG trouble maker. he cheated on me in the past and he has been in jail. we were married 1 1/2 years and had a 6 month old child the first time he was arrested. he went away for 3 years. since he has been out (he went in twice more for brief time periods up until the age of 24) we have been working things out. at first i was afraid to take him back. i thought "people can't change". but he is really proving me wrong. he is completely different from the cheating trouble maker i married. we get along great and he is really showing that he loves me. therefore, i have to say, yes, people can change.  |

Yes Belle I do believe people can change..When I met my husband he was a partier..he was into drinking and drugs..We have been together for almost 11 years..He hasnt touched drugs in almost 10 years..he still drinks, but just casually now..He was a rebel..now he is a total sweety and softy..LOL..I suggest you tread lightly, and dont take anything for granted.  |

People can change....but always be on your toes about stuff. I used to be an alchoholic and as most of us ex alchoholics or alcoholics know there are always temptations knocking on the door, and some of us can be real jerks when we are on the sauce. I haven't drank in years, but trust me I've had thoughts, and this might prove true w/ drugs too. People can change but just be wise.  |

People can change, but change is indicated by the life that someone lives, not the words he uses. You are not required to believe everything he says: nor should you. Don't underestimate your intuition and keep your mind engaged. I wish you well.  |

Yeah, people can change, but its normallypretty hard and takes a while. I had a friend who used to be in ALOT of trouble, drugs, drinking, sleeping around, being a butt etc. But he changed, hes a good guy,and VERY sweet.  |
