Because addicts can't and don't change for other people. They need to hit bottom and decide they need to change for themselves. Even then it is hard to get and keep clean. But it has nothing to do with you, it has to do with addiction.
If a wonderful woman enters a crackhead's life is it possible that the crackhead will find so much warmth, joy and happiness in his friendship with the wonderful woman that he'll easily give up crack without going to rehab cause of the warmth, joy, happiness he was getting from this wonderful woman and it made him find something to live for?

No chance!!!
It's a disease ( in effect ) and one that would only bring the poor woman down to his level and cause nothing but pain

No, it is not possible. Look at what happened to Whitney Houston.

Will a guy do it for an ex? She left him because of his painkiller addiction. Then when that happened, he switched to hardcore drugs like heroin and crack. Whatever he could get get his hands on. After his time in prison, he claims to be a changed man and sobered up from drugs but continues to drink responsibly. And she took him back.

Then he had the first fight with his new gf and guess what happened
This is a bit later. However, this is just what I see. If a man is a crackhead, the last thing he should concern himself with is getting a woman. It should be with getting himself well. I do not recommend any woman getting involved with a crackhead. It is not likely to end well. That man needs to have himself together first.

There are some thing I disagree with you on. I agree with this. I know someone who is a habitual drug user. He has basically ruined his own life and caused problems for others in his family. Drugs, alcohol abuse. I cut him off because he wouldn't change. He wasn't getting better and I felt like he would take me with him.
Getting into a relationship with a crackhead is like trying to tame a wild horse. It won't work out very well.
My story is a wonderful clean woman tht takes care of her kids holds down a job been out of a relationship for four years an one day meet this guy tht doesn't look like a crackhead an don't come off as one either until a year later things starts to come up missing n da house he blamed everyone but him self I still didn't want to believe it until he didn't come home for 9days an when he came home he wasn't dress nice anymore an he walked funny later found out he had crack feet for walking so long to make a long story short b4 getting n a relationship with someone do a background check like asap
