Because we do not know or love each other give-and-take hostility is rampant not just in the world-at-large but in our enmity-like intimate relationships.
If I knew you and you knew me,
and each of us could clearly see,
By the light that propells the soul
The meaning of your heart and mine;
I am sure that we would just say no
To the things that divide and every partition,
If you knew me, and I knew you.
If I loved you and you loved me,
and each of us could really feel,
With the spirit of compassion
The feelings in your heart and mine;
I am sure that we would radiate
Beauty and extend to each other empathy,
If you loved me, and I loved you.
If I knew and loved you and you knew
and loved me,
Each of us would be authentic and free to be self and not have to be
somebody else;
If I knew and loved you, and you knew
and loved me.

Sums it up very well, Uriah! If only we take the time and bother to know each other - and accept it. but we always go head forst with the notion that we will be able to change that next person. And if we loved that person for whatever he was, instead of trying to change him into a moulding clay.
On the question of changing, please read "The Moment". On the question of give-and-take, but on a different level, please read "Would You Take Me Back?"
