I realized this way back in high school when I spent a few years in therapy realizing that you can't change people [in this case, my dad] unless they want to change themselves. Just because someone is bitching doesn't mean they have a real problem or want to even solve their problem. Again, life experience taught me this when one of my own friends was a "Florence Nightingale" [female equivalent to the white knight] thinking she could change "bad" men. When most of her friends, including myself, confronted her about her engagement, she thought we were crazy but she luckily came around. "Putting a ring on it" does not change the guy into this majestic prince.
