Why people want to change the person they love

It's funny to think why do people always want to change the perfect person they fell in love with. Not talking about others, putting myself in the position. I too have encountered this situation. When we are so much in love in a relationship we tend to forget and be ignorant about the other party's weaknesses. But once we get married or have been together for so long we start to ask the person to change. Perhaps it's due the change of taste we want or maybe it's just that

what we use to tolerate aren't anymore tolerable. I'm not too sure. But when I came this across this one phrase in the Internet, it really made me realize what true relationships are all about.
Love is not about "It's your fault" but "I'm sorry",
Not about "Where are you?" but "I'm right here for you"
Not about "How could you?" but "I understand"
Not about "I wish u were" but " I'm thankful you are"
After reading this phrase I actually thought to myself, it will not be as easy said than done. We're merely human beings. But the more I think about the meaning of it, I try to practice it in my relationship. And I'm thankful to the phrase it work wonders. My husband and I are more tolerant of each other and we still accept each other's imperfection as that completes our relationship as whole.So after all... we don't actually have to change the perfect person we fell in love with.
