If you could change one thing about your partner, what would it be?

If you could change one thing about your partner, what would it be?

By VANESSA E CHAMBERS 

Many times in relationships, what you see is what you get, but that doesn’t stop people from wishing and hoping that they could mould their partners into perfection. If you could change one thing about you partner what would it be?

Dave, 36:

I would change her stubborn ways. It’s either her way or no way at all.

Oshane, 27:

The fact that she gives up too easily and never follows through on anything. She will start something today and half way through the day, she stops.

Loraine, 31:

His inability to be clean. He will get home from work and just take of his clothes and wherever they fall they stay there until I pick them up. He doesn’t know how to clean up after himself, not even to wash a dish. I love him and he is a good man and father, but just once I’d like to see him pick up after himself.

Romaine, 29:

Her weight. When I met her she was weighing 180. She lost weight and went to 155. I told her she didn’t have to lose anymore weight but she did, now she is at 130. I’m happy that she is happy with her new size, but I like my women with meat and she is now bones.

Marvin, 42:

My girlfriend is younger than I am — she is 28 and the true definition of a hothead. It doesn’t take much to get her rattled. I would love for her to be much more calm and relaxed.

Sharon, 39:

My man lacks patience. He hates having to wait on anything and acts as if everything should be done at a fast pace. Sometimes it is embarrassing to be out in public with him.

Althea, 35:

His snoring. The man snores to the point where the bed shakes, no joke. It’s as if his breath stops when snores. At first it didn’t bother me, but now it gets to me as I struggle to get a good night’s sleep.

 Olive, 38:

Him not being able to satisfy me sexually. He rushes sex and it leaves me feeling frustrated. I have spoken to him about it and he tries, but quickly falls back into a wham, bam type of thing.

Marie, 27:

He can be hard-headed at times. He never backs down from his points even when he is dead wrong.

Nickeisha, 23:

His constant smoking. He says he is going to quit but never tries to. He stinks of smoke and I hate that.

Kirk, 46:

She doesn’t know how to save. Money is like quicksand in her hand; the second it touches her palms it disappears. Poof, it’s gone.

Otis, 29:

She needs to talk more and let me in. There are times when things are bothering her and she keeps it to herself and that’s not healthy.

Elijah, 33:

I wish she were more open-minded in the bedroom, willing to try new things and explore ways of making sex more fun.

Omari, 38:

She can’t cook. She can keep a clean house but doesn’t know how to cook.
