 If they’re open to change then yes. Otherwise it’s a waste of time. 
 indeed. curious — how would you spot a person who is open to change esp in an impersonal convo like plain text?   
 In text? I probably wouldn’t even get involved… In person you can at least get a sense of open-mindedness or build up an understanding by spending time with them and how they interact in different situations. 
 a very wise technique. it is hard on text. F2f or in-person convo is much relatable, you get a sense of their reactions and how open they are willing to converse with you ☺️👌
