[quote=Anonymous]Yes, people are “consistent” throughout the course of their lives, but it’s parallel to the way a child is consistent as they grow up and become adults. You can look back and see the consistency, and you say, “yeah, they’re the same person they have always been.” But you can do that only in retrospect. It’s just really hard to project forward who a person will be over long periods of time. In the process of becoming, and as life unfolds unpredictably, certain traits will swell and grow. Others will fade into the background. Which will bloom, and in what ways? You make your best guess when choosing a partner. You look out for red flags, run screaming from the most glaring of those red flags. But we all have flaws. Will the flaws become distorted in ways that become impossible to live with? You just can’t know for sure. Even the best marriages begin as a leap of faith. [/quote]
