Yes, based on the information you give in the rest of your post. There was a similar thread here the other day. I'll give you the same advice I gave the other poster: you, as a suitor, are not equipped to deal with that type of problem. Gaining the respect you would need to effect that sort of a personality change is almost impossible. A romantic relationship would be in direct conflict with your intentions. A stronger bond, such as a deep religious commitment or a family bond, in addition to a personal desire for change, has to be there first before you can alter her outlook. I'd say it's time to move on and pray that she finds the personal desire and the right person to correct her issues.
