People dont change because you want them to. If they do they are  and like others say you fall in love with a person for who they are not what you can change about them.
I say you look at a person that your interested in and take the worst thing you dont like about that and multipy it 10x if you can live with that the rest of your life its all good. If not move on to one you can.
Like was said before only a person can change themselves. I am who I am. Like me or not is up to you. I wont dislike you for not nor hate you its your way of thinking. And those that do like me become friends or maybe more. JMO

Well like everyone else said why change them if you love them? Well you can change a person depends on what your changing! Persay they didn't know how it is to love unconditionlly and you perswaded them to do so or showed them a life they never had before their is so much beauty in the world to share that it might change the way a person looks at life but i agree it is a compramise part if realationships did that theyd last longger its a give n take thing happy holidays

If I chose to pursue a relationship with him then that is what I was attracted to in the first place.

NOOOOOOO!!! -- and don't even try!!! 
The number-one gripe (of most men) is women who try to change them. 
Trust me -- it doesn't work. Accept them like they are  or leave them alone.

It's a proven fact that you can change people... but it's with little things, that are like habits... like leaving shoes in front of couch, leaving a dirty dish on table, you know things like that. But habits are what makes up a person.. I will change little things like that. But as for personality, morals, values... those shouldn't change.
I have changed my X's little brother way of using my toilet... HE WOULD PEE ALL OVER THE SEAT AND LEAVE IT. I told him if he couldn't raise the seat, he could use the bush outside!! And I wasn't joking... who wants to go to their bathroom and sit in someone's pee to take a dump?

Sure you can!
You can use for example:
Antidepressants, which are used to treat disparate disorders such as clinical depression, dysthymia, anxiety, and eating disorders and affect dysregulation, colloquially termed 'mood stabilization' in borderline personality disorder.
Stimulants, which are used to treat disorders such as attention deficit disorder and narcolepsy and to suppress the appetite.
Antipsychotics, which are used to treat psychoses such as schizophrenia and mania.
Mood stabilizers, which are used to treat bipolar disorder and schizoaffective disorder.
Anxiolytics, which are used to treat anxiety disorders.
Depressants, which are used as hypnotics, sedatives, and anesthetics.

If one has a dominant personality and the other is weak, sure it is possible to change that person. I think that when we find someone we have to accept that person for what he/she is. Someone mentioned habits can/should be changed. Sure, I go along with the idea that if someone has a bad habit, that it is okay to change that. As an example, I went with a guy who was always late for our dates. One day he was extremely late, so I went out without him. Wow! Was he angry, but he was never late again after I told him that from now on, if he doesn't call me and give me a reasonable explanation as to why he is running late, I will go out without him.
Oh, we broke up for other reasons. He was into entering dance contests; that was his whole life. I like to dance and went along with it for a while, but realized I wanted to do other things .... go to the movies once in a while .... go to a concert or whatever. However, he just wanted to go dancing and enter contests. I didn't want to change him, because I felt that if I did so, sooner or later he would resent my taking away his dream of winning in one of these dance contests.

sure, it's possible. little changes are easier than big changes. but why pick a fixer upper that needs an overhaul in your eyes? the captain doesn't mind small adaptations, like taking off his shoes at the door because a wench is a freak about her white carpet, but giving up what he loves, or changing who he is, is out of the question. and the captain won't ask that of someone else. demanding change carries with it unintended consequences and one of them is resentment. who needs all that. life's too short!
if the captain sees a beautiful wench who's an alcoholic, or a drama queen, he's not going to say, "damn, she's hot! if i can get her to stop ______________, she'll be perfect." no, no, no, no. you'll never find anyone perfect. heaven help you if you do. but make sure the imperfections are ones you can live with, maybe even chuckle about and love about them. or move on if you want to keep your life reasonably free of frustration and misery.
